Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat – Cyber-Hobby 5060

Une nouveauté 2012 de la marque Kiber-hobi Model: «Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat – Cyber-Hobby 5060».

To je komplet meril 1/72 podjetja Cyber-Hobby. Temelji na F6F-5N (postavka št. 5080), ki je bil izdan prej, vendar ima spremenjen trup v skladu z zasnovo F6F-3. Podrobnosti, kot je radialni motor Double Wasp, so popolnoma osupljive. Kokpit ima popolno notranjost z enakomernimi podrobnostmi. Prozorna krošnja se lahko prikaže odprta ali zaprta, kar modelarju omogoča, da pokaže vse notranje podrobnosti. Krila so lahko prikazana podaljšana ali zložena, kot tudi podvozje. Nalepke Cartograf ponujajo različne možnosti označevanja ameriških in britanskih enot za tega slavnega borca Hellcat. Komplet je opremljen tudi z izbiro ali oborožitvijo (npr. 5-palčni HVAR, 500 lb bomba) za izdelavo avtentičnega modela. To je morda Hellcat, vendar bo povzročil, da bodo modelarji letal z veseljem predejo!

Although it looked somewhat like its predecessor the F4F Wildcat, the single-seat F6F Hellcat was a completely new design from Grumman. It was a carrier-based fighter that served in the US Navy and US Marine Corps (USMC). The Hellcat is credited with destroying a staggering 5,271 enemy aircraft. Cyber-Hobby is releasing a 1/72 scale plastic kit of the first production version of the Hellcat, the F6F-3. In all, some 4,402 F6F-3 carrier-borne fighters were produced up till April 1944 before it was replaced by the F6F-5. The fighter’s standard armament was six .50-cal M2/AN Browning machine guns, while later aircraft possessed three hardpoints capable of carrying 900kg of bombs. Six High-Velocity Aircraft Rockets (HVAR) could also be mounted under its wings.
