This is the Tamiya 61126 1/48 Grumman FM-1 Wildcat/Martlet Plastic Model Kit
The F4F-3 Wildcat - once the main carrier fighter of the U.S. Navy - began deployment in 1940; in 1942, a version with folding main wing and six 12.7mm machine guns was introduced: the F4F-4. It also had improved survivability thanks to a better-protected fuselage, and thanks to further tactical development by its pilots, was able to match the Japanese Zero fighter. Although it was superseded during the war by the F6F Hellcat and F4U Corsair, the Wildcat's ability to take off from cramped airfields and carriers meant that it was still an important aircraft for U.S. forces. As Grumman shifted focus to production of the F6F, General Motors' Eastern Aircraft Division continued to make the Wildcat, with the designation FM. FM-1 Wildcats had their armament reduced to four machine guns, but otherwise were almost identical to their F4F-4 cousins. Britain also received around 300 of the aircraft and dubbed it the Martlet (a mythical bird), often deploying it from British aircraft carriers.
- This kit is an adaptation of Item 61034. Length: 184mm.
- The muscular FM-1 Wildcat form is captured in style.
- Fine panel lines and depictions of rivets give the model great realism.
- The complex landing gear is succinctly recreated.
- Comes with a seated pilot figure, and marking options for both FM-1 Martlet (U.S.) and Martlet Mk.V (British) aircraft.
