More than 4000 were built by the Eastern Aircraft Division of the General Motors Company between 1943 - 1945. These aircraft incorporated a lighter airframe and a more powerful engine. The FM-2 had a taller vertical tail for stability to counter the increased torque of the engine. Armament consisted of 4 each .50 cal. guns, 2 each external bomb or fuel racks and air to ground rocket launch points on the wings. These aircraft were primarily operated from escort carriers to support ground operations in the Pacific theater of operations. These same aircraft were teamed with Grumman Avengers and used in anti-sub operations in the Atlantic against U-boats.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis kit features fine recessed panel lines\u003cbr\u003eHighly detailed cockpit and forward fuselage interior\u003cbr\u003eSeparately molded rudder\u003cbr\u003e2 drop tanks\u003cbr\u003e7 piece clear canopy\u003cbr\u003eMarkings included for VC-10, USS Gambier Bay, October 1944 and VC-36, USS Core\u003cbr\u003eConsists of over 80 parts\u003cbr\u003eLength: 256.4mm (10.07in) and Wingspan: 350.6mm (13.77in)\u003cbr\u003eGlue, paint and assembly required\u003cbr\u003eSkill level 2","brand":"Wondertrail","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43084518522903,"sku":"OOO","price":42.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/8099\/9959\/files\/HBM80330.jpg?v=1757367431","url":"https:\/\/animeimports.net\/products\/hbm80330-fm-2-wildcat-1-48-scale-plastic-model-kit-hobby-boss","provider":"Anime Imports LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
