Mastercraft Collection F9F-5 Panther Escala 132

Reseña del editor El F-9F Panther fue el primer jet propulsado por Grumman Aerospace Corporation. Desarrollado en la década de 1940, el Panther se abrió camino a la Guerra de Corea como el principal caza a reacción de la Marina de los Estados Unidos y fue desplegado para misiones de ataque terrestre. Más lento que sus contemporáneos, el Panther era sin embargo un luchador capaz, sosteniéndose solo frente al fuego enemigo. Este caza-bombardero de un solo asiento estaba armado con cuatro cañones M2 de 0.787 in, seis cohetes de cinco pulgadas y 2,000 libras de bombas. Además de servir a la Marina de los Estados Unidos y al Cuerpo de Marines durante la guerra, este avión derivado del F-9 Cougar también sirvió como el primer avión a reacción de los Ángeles Azules. El Panther permaneció con la demostración de vuelo de 1949 a 1954. From the Manufacturer The F9F Panther is a fighter-bomber aircraft manufactured by Grumman. It was widely used during the Korean War. The Panther have been notable for its prominent role in the 1954 movie Men of the FIghting Lady and was also featured in the flying sequences in the 1955 movie The Bridges at Toko-Ri. The prototype Panther first flew on November 24, 1947. F9F-5s, together with F9F-2s and F9F-5s have distinctively served in the Korean war, having downed two Yak-9s and five Mikoyan-Gurevich, with only one loss of F9F. In 1956, Panthers were withdrawn from front-line service, but remained as trainers and with Reserve units until 1958 and some continued to serve in small numbers into the 1960s. The only foreign Panther buyer was the Argentine Navy, having bought 24 ex-USN aircraft in 1958. The Argentine Panthers were involved in general mobilization during the 1965 border clash between Argentina and Chile, but there wasn't any combat that occurred. In 1969, Panthers were removed from active service due to lack spare parts and was replaced with A-4Q Skyhawks. The F9F-5 Panther is a variant of the F9F-5 but is powered by Pratt & Whitney J48 engine. There were 616 F9F-5s built.
