The most refined of the Cats to come from Grumman's den of fighter aircraft for World War II, the F8F Bearcat just missed flying in that war. They were highly maneuverable, had a fantastic rate of climb, could carry a wide range of external stores and could fly 1,830 miles with a centerline fuel tank. The Grumman Bearcat was the last piston-engine fighter to be used by the U.S. Navy. Kit includes decals markings to build an F8F of Naval Air Reserve, Glenview or the civil aircraft flown by Major Al Williams (Maj. Williams actually flew an F8F-1 which differs slightly from the F8F-2 represented in the kit.
