The F4U-1 Corsair served with distinction in World War II and beyond, standing out with its inverted gull wing design and powerful performance. Hobby Boss recreates that iconic form in 1/48 scale to suit shelf display or small diorama projects.
Entering service in about 1940 and with production lasting until 1953, the Corsair saw extended use across several conflicts. The kit represents the early F4U-1 layout so modellers can recreate the aircraft as it appeared during initial wartime deployments.
With over 190 parts included, the kit offers a detailed build. The main airframe and wing pieces show accurate contours, clear parts are provided for glazing, and the engine bay plus landing gear areas contain fine moulded detail for realistic finishing.
