Italeri 71044 F4U-5N CORSAIR – Zestaw Modelarski 1:72

Italeri 71044 F4U-5N Corsair is a complete 1:72 scale model kit, dedicated to all enthusiasts of military aviation and historical modeling. The model reproduces the American carrier-based fighter F4U-5N Corsair, manufactured by the renowned company Vought. This was the night version of the famous Corsair, equipped with an AN/APS-6 radar, designed for combat missions after dark.

The original F4U-5N Corsair was used by the United States Armed Forces (US Navy and US Marine Corps), as well as by Argentina, France, and Honduras. It became particularly famous during the Korean War (1950–1953), where it effectively carried out fighter-bomber missions and night interceptions. Produced in the late 1940s and early 1950s, the F4U-5N was a direct successor to the F4U-4 version, serving as an example of transitional technologies into the jet era.
