Create an impressive, 3D sheet metal model that pays tribute to the most capable carrier-based fighter-bomber of World War II, the F4U Corsair. This legendary aircraft, equipped with the powerful 2,000 hp, 18-cylinder Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp radial engine, became the first US warplane to exceed 400 mph in level flight. Its unique inverted gull wing design allowed for a short undercarriage while accommodating a large-diameter propeller, making it a formidable force in the skies.

This bundled set includes a Metal Earth model of the F4U Corsair, crafted from high-quality steel sheets with intricate details cut from 4" square steel sheets. No glue or soldering is needed—just snip, bend, and assemble using the included easy-to-follow instructions. Paired with the Metal Earth 3-Piece Tool Set, building this museum-quality 3D model is even easier. The set features a clipper for precise part removal, flat nose pliers for secure holds and tight connections, and needle nose pliers for those hard-to-reach spots.
