Background information:
The Vought Corsair is one of the iconic aircraft of World War II and was a feared enemy, especially in the Pacific region. With its distinctive raked wings and impressive firepower from six 12.7 mm Browning machine guns, it was nicknamed “Whispering Death” by Japanese troops. The ground troops they received as air support affectionately nicknamed them the “Sweetheart of Okinawa.” An airplane with history that you can now hold in your hands and recreate.
Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
