Product Description:
The FM-2 Wildcat was an improved version of the F4F Wildcat aircraft, which played a key role during the Pacific battles in 1943-1945. This aircraft was widely used by the US Navy on escort carriers during the largest naval battles. The Eduard 648887 set allows for highly detailed reproduction of the landing gear wheels, a distinctive feature of this machine. Thanks to precisely cast resin, the wheels have prominent tire tread and detailed texture, which is impossible to achieve with plastic parts from the basic kit.
