I saw a pic of one, anyone know the specifics of it? It looked like 2 20mms on each wing. But the F2G corsair has the same thing, but they are 2 .50s. :aok
-
4C was armed with 4x20mm cannon, as was the 4B.
-
Neither of which saw combat in WWII, if memory serves.
-
Nope. None saw any combat in WWII.
Imagine the horror if they did.
-
Imagine the perks for it in AH if it did. :D

Seem to remember there was a post war version built as the ultimate ground attack corsair...the AU-1??
Heavily armored, 10 pylons instead of 8, monstrous carry capacity, and of course 4x 20mm cannons. And once you drop the load, you're in a Corsair instead of an A20 or something!
-
oh, it looked like the F2g the way the cannons were. Instead of 4 20mms, I thought they were 4 .50s.
I just saw a pic on a website. I was pretty sure they didnt see service though.

Also known as F4U-6. Heavily armored, ultimate mud-mover with a 4000lb payload. :O Single-stage supercharger, so only suited for low altitude. Not terribly fast.

AU-1 only had a top speed on the 200s.

carrier based 262 :D :O fastest CV planes with 20's?
-
Do you mean prop planes? Or just fastest overall? If just overall, I would say the F4, (With 20mm pods) or the F14, if prop driven planes, then F4U-4 (a, b, or c) or the Hawker Seafury. :aok

Newer technology. F14 is sexier than the F22, I know that much.

the only difrnce on the armament was the same as the difrece between the typoon and tempest
-
Raptor > Eagle > Tomcat
And the Eagle isn't far behind the Raptor either.

Okay, I'll vote for the PTO enthusiasts to have a four-cannon F4U-4 if they'll vote for me to have a P-47M...
...and if we do THAT sort of thing, we WILL have F-22s in AHII before long. :devil
-
F4U-4Cs were only in Korea, same with F4U-4Bs.... :P
(still in for the P-47M though.) :D

That's like saying your mom is sexier than your girlfriend.
It's just wrong.
