Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat V2

63.0k EpicPigster1  1.7 years ago
Auto Credit Based on EpicPigster1's Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat (Minsi III)

Updated version of my old Hellcat for modern times. Comes with a full realistic interactive cockpit with armored cockpit glass (80% historically accurate, some modifications made for ease of use), realistic M2 Brownings set to converge at 2000ft, and updated flight characteristics. Keep in mind that this is a 6 year old airframe (I built my original Hellcat when I was a bronze nearly 6 years back), so it doesn't look perfect, but it does fly perfect. All flight characteristics are historically accurate. so enjoy!

CONTROLS:
AG1: Sto-Wings
AG2: Nav & Beacon Lights
AG3: Arresting Hook

Unlike my old Hellcat, this one can easily be landed, and the landing gear can take alot of punishment. Approach at 120-140 kts (115kts for USS Tiny), and use AG3 (arresting hook) for carrier landings.
