The F4F-4 Wildcat was a key carrier fighter in World War II, recognised for its durable build and steady performance aboard naval carriers. Its compact fuselage shape, wing geometry and narrow undercarriage were part of its operational identity.
Hobby Boss has rendered this aircraft at 1:48 scale to emphasise authentic details, including the hydraulic wing folding system that facilitated carrier stowage. The F4F-4 followed the F4F-3 in service after the U.S. Navy ordered in excess of a thousand examples by August 1942.
The Hobby Boss 80328 F4F-4 is a good match for collectors seeking fidelity to the original aircraft. Careful assembly and paintwork yield a convincing model that complements other period aircraft on display.
