"F4F Wildcat In Detail & Scale," Squadron/Signal Publications.
F-Fighter F-Grumman (mfr).
When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, 7 December 1941, our most modern
Navy fighter was the Grumman F4F Wildcat. Although it was small, it was not as
fast or maneuverable as the Japanese Zero Fighter, but it was a very durable
machine. And in the hands of an experienced pilot the Wildcat could best the
feared Zero. Thankfully, the Wildcat was able to fend off the enemy until the
more powerful Hellcat was available about a year later.
FEATURES: Informative and well written introduction describing various designs
of the F4F Wildcat and talks about its history.
Many excellent color and black and white photographs, each depicting
a certain aspect of the aircraft.
Includes a modelers summary with descriptions and reviews of kits
from various companies.
Highly educational and detailed.
SPECS: 80 Pages - 11" x 8.25"
COMMENTS: This book is great for scale modelers looking for detailed photos,
drawings, and aircraft history.
