HobbyBoss manufactures static plastic model kits and the company has became an established and very well-regarded brand after many years of hard work. HobbyBoss strives to continually improve and to make the best possible products. The Wildcat was the main shipboard fighter when the US entered WWII. The F4F was barrel-shaped, with angular wingtips and rudder and a narrow-track undercarriage. The F4F was well-armed and reliable, and was a natural shipboard aircraft, and it was probably easier to land on a carrier deck than on land. The F4F-3 was accepted by the USN, and an order for 54 was received in August 1939. After the first two, the cowl guns were removed, and four 0. 50 wing guns fitted. The production aircraft were powered by the R-1830-76 engine. Most F4F-3s had no armour and no self-sealing fuel tanks. Markings provided for an F4F-3 of VF-72 USS Wasp (CV-7) and also for an F4F-3 of VMF-111 in 1941. The kit consists of 73 parts in light grey plastic and 7 clear parts for canopy, simple engine detail, and an optional cowling configuration. This finely detailed plastic model kit requires assembly and painting.
