Grumman F6F Hellcat

The Grumman F6F Hellcat was a carrier-based fighter aircraft developed to replace the earlier F4F Wildcat in United States Navy (USN) service. Although the F6F resembled the Wildcat it was a completely new design powered by a 2 000 hp Pratt & Whitney R-2800. Some tagged it as the Wildcat's big brother. The Hellcat and the Vought F4U Corsair were the primary USN fighters during the second half of World War II.
