1 in stock
The F7F Tigercat is a heavy fighter developed by Grumman at the End of the Second World War but it was delivered too late to participate to the fighting. The F7F participated, in an active way, to the first stages of Korean War and it served with the United States Navy and with the Unites States Marine Corps. Designed for service on aircraft carriers it has been mainly used as land-based airplane. During the Korean War it had performed night fighter, attack, close support and photo-reconnaissance duties. Characterized by the adoption of two powerful radial Pratt & Whitney engines, the Tigercat was able to reach the speed of 740 Km/h. Furthermore it has been equipped with APS-6 radar system to optimize the effectiveness in night operations.

Nice model. Pretty straightforward and good looking as well. (Sounds like I’ve been in lock down too long!)
The above review was written 15 minutes ago when the plane was finished and just the transfers to put on.I’ve painted this model with white engine nacelles cos they look good with the supplied green stripe transfer around them. On looking at them now, the transfer is nowhere long enough to go round and as I have already stuck all the rockets under the wing as well, no way will the transfers go on without removing them which would be difficult. I suppose I should have noticed and thought of it but I did’nt. DON’T make the same mistake.
