Plastic model aircraft kit of the Grumman F6F Hellcat. American carrier-based fighter aircraft of World War II, it was the United States Navy's dominant fighter in the second half of the Pacific War. The Hellcat competed with the faster Vought F4U Corsair for that role and prevailed, as the Corsair had significant issues with carrier landings.
Kit has engraved panel lines, detailed cockpit, twin-row radial engine with accessory section and motor mounts, single piece propeller with spinner, separate controlled surfaces, optional canopy, detailed wheel wells and optional undercarriage, centerline tank.
