OverviewIn February 1938, the United States Navy opened a competition for a new fighter. Its maximum speed and operational ceiling were to exceed all the machines that the American aviation had at the time. Among others, the Chance Vought company entered the competition. The Corsair was designed by a team of engineers led by Rex Beisel, the company's chief constructor. The prototype XF4U-1 was flown on May 29, 1940. The Corsair was powered by an eighteen-cylinder Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp, the largest and the most powerful radial engine ever installed in a single-seat front fighter. 120 photographs, 8 colour profiles, A4 poster Full Product DetailsAuthor: Karoly Bear , Marcin Giepierski , Richard KovalcikPublisher: Kagero Oficyna Wydawnicza Imprint: Kagero Oficyna Wydawnicza ISBN: 9788366673243ISBN 10: 8366673243 Pages: 64 Publication Date: 01 April 2021 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
