I really like the F6F Gruman Hellcat. What a flying battle ship. My dad was in a B-17 durning the war.
Hellcats were much more reliable than the Corsairs.
If I’m not mistaken, the Hellcats racked up a much higher total kills than the Corsairs. It’s kill numbers ranked right up there near the top with any of our fighters in WW2.
My Dad too, he was in the Leyte invasion of the Philippines. He died last year.
