Seller's Description

CORGI AA99120 1/72 GUADALCANAL ISLAND, F4U CORSAIR, A6M2 ZERO DOGFIGHT 1943 - LAST ONE HERE NOW

In early 1942 the Americans began their offensive against the Japanese South West Pacific perimeter. General Douglas MacArthur was given the task of pushing North through the Solomons, New Guinea and onto the Philippines. This 2 piece dogfight set depicts two of the aircraft which helped shape the bitter fighting which would take place over Guadalcanal during this conflict. White 20 was an F4U-1 piloted by 1st Lt. Foy R. 'Poncho' Garison of VMF-213. Garison failed to reach the status of ace but did claim two Zeros on 30th June 1943, before being killed in action on the 17th July. His aircraft was adorned with a beautifully painted eagle on the cowling. Ens Saburo Saito flew with the Zuikaku Fighter Squadron, who were involved in the evacuation of Guadalcanal before being based at Rabaul and Buin. It was at Guadalcanal that he scored his first victory on 1st February 1943, shooting down a Wildcat.

Vought F4U Corsair
Designed to meet a US Navy requirement for a single-seat carrier based fighter, the F4U was first flown on May 29th, 1940. This versatile aircraft saw service with both the Navy and Marine Corps in WW II and in the Korean War. During its lifetime, the Corsair underwent numerous improvements such as a lengthened fuselage, a high visibility bubble-top canopy and folding inverted gull wings that provided clearance for a large propeller. Its performance advantage, 400 mph capability, the ability to withstand punishment and six .50 Browning machine guns made the F4U a devastating weapon against aircraft, ground targets and ships.

Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero-Sen/Zeke
First flown in April, 1939, the A6M Zero-Sen was the Allies' main opponent in the Pacific and the most famous symbol of Japanese air power during World War II. This carrier-based fighter, designed with a low-monoplane wing and armed with a formidable array of two 20mm cannons and two 7.7mm machine guns, proved capable of handling any of the Allies' aircraft. It wasn't until the Allies studied a captured Zero that they were able to identify and exploit weaknesses such as minimal pilot and fuel tank protection. Zeros became infamous for Kamikaze attacks, in which pilots would intentionally crash explosion-laden aircraft into Allied ships.
