Goodyear F2G Super Corsair
The Super Corsair was based around the powerful Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major engine, which was capable of providing 3000 hp, a big increase on the 2000 hp engine used in the original Corsair. In addition, an all-round vision bubble-type canopy was installed. The new aircraft was technically a great success. It could reach a speed of over 450 mph, fast enough to intercept the Japanese kamikaze aircraft at a safer distance from the carriers. However, before the F2G could enter full production it became clear that the war was coming to an end. Only 10 production aircraft were completed before the order was cancelled. GMAX mdl by A.F.Scrub
