HISTORY ASPECTS:The Grumman F4F Wildcat is a carrier-based aircraft that was the primary fighter used by the United States Navy and Marine Corps in the Pacific Theater during the early part of World War II. With a top speed of 318 mph (F4F-4 variant) the Wildcat was generally outperformed by the faster more maneuverable and longer-ranged Japanese A6M Zero but the Wildcat held its own with excellent survivability due to its rugged construction and robust armor. The F4F-4 entered service in 1941 with 6 machine-guns and the folding-wing system that enabled more planes to be stored in an aircraft carrier. It was the definitive Wildcat that saw the most combat service including the Battle of Midway.
