| − | [[ | + | The F4U Corsair was a single-engine fighter that excelled in top-speed performance and fire power. It was a shock to Japanese pilots who were familiar with obsolete aircraft like the F4F Wildcat and F2A Buffalo. As was typical with aerial combat in World War II, some planes faced mechanical problems or damage that forced pilots to crash land. This led to Japanese forces capturing various aircraft, like the P-40 Warhawk, [[B-17E (Japan)|B-17 Flying Fortress]], and some Corsairs. Although specific details about the planes are hazy, it is known that Japan did have two Corsairs and fixed one to flying condition. The Japanese conducted various flight tests and were impressed by the materials used in construction and the flight performance. |

It is virtually the same as the F4U-1A in the American tech tree, with the exception of the camo used and the lack of suspended armament. Much like the American F4U-1A, the Japanese F4U-1A is an incredibly strong fighter thanks to its high-speed performance, armament, and overall handling. Players should take note of the F4U-1A's limited WEP capability (around 7-8 minutes) as a result of the water injection system used. This version of the Corsair comes armed with six 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine guns and ample ammunition, which is more than enough for its battle rating. Overall, the '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a strong aircraft, even though it lacks bombs for close air support. |

The F4U Corsair was a single-engine fighter that excelled in top-speed performance and fire power. It was a shock to Japanese pilots who were familiar with obsolete aircraft like the F4F Wildcat and F2A Buffalo. As was typical with aerial combat in World War II, some planes faced mechanical problems or damage that forced pilots to crash land. This led to Japanese forces capturing various aircraft, like the P-40 Warhawk, B-17 Flying Fortress, and some Corsairs. Although specific details about the planes are hazy, it is known that Japan did have two Corsairs and fixed one to flying condition. The Japanese conducted various flight tests and were impressed by the materials used in construction and the flight performance.

Vought F4U-1A Corsair single-engine carrier-based fighter (IJNAF) A single-seat, single-engine carrier-based fighter; an all-metal cantilever monoplane with a peculiar inverted gull wing. It was designed in the design bureau of Chance Vought for a single-seat carrier-based fighter competition announced by the USNAF. The V-166B prototype fighter made its first flight on May 26, 1940. In June 1942, the F4U fighter entered mass production. In the middle of 1943, the F4U-1A variant began full-scale production. While creating this variant, Chance Vought's experts introduced some changes into the aircraft's design which contributed to its success as a carrier-based fighter. The main landing gear shock absorbers' stroke was increased, and their stiffness was reduced. The pilot's cockpit was drastically redesigned; to improve forward and rear visibility, which was especially important when landing on an aircraft carrier, the pilot's cockpit canopy was made convex, and the pilot's seat was raised 17.8 cm. The designers solved the problem of the fighter's stalling at near-minimum speeds in quite a simple way: a stall strip, 152 mm long, was fitted on the right wing in the area of the machine gun ports. When the left wing began to stall, which was typical of the F4U-1, this strip initiated flow separation over the right wing, leveling the aircraft out. The F4U-1A's armament consisted of six large-calibre 12.7 mm Colt-Browning ANM2.5 machine guns, three on each wing. The Corsair fighters were quite dangerous opponents for the Japanese fighters, so the Imperial Japanese Navy's experts wanted to take a closer look at the new American machine. The Japanese managed to capture two Corsair fighters which had made forced landings. One of them was an F4U-1A, and the planes had apparently belonged to the US Marine Corps and the Royal New Zealand Air Force. The Japanese successfully repaired one machine, using the second F4U as a source of spare parts and partially covering the damaged parts of the wing surfaces with canvas. This restored Corsair was flight-tested. After Japan surrendered, this machine was discovered by the Americans at the flying school airfield in Kasumigaura. | |
