Vought F4U Corsair

The Corsair’s success in air-to-air combat against the Japanese Zero aircraft was legendary. Over 12,000 of the American-built fighter plane were produced, and some estimate that there are just shy of 50 left in the United States. The F4U Corsair was built under license by Goodyear at times.

In 1944, the Vought F4U Corsair entered the U.S. Navy with many units. To save space on the carriers, they had folding wings. However, some variants did not have the hydraulic wing folding mechanism, though the crew could manually fold them.
