Without doubt, the best US Navy carrier-based fighter of world war two was the Grumman F6F Hellcat. So good in fact that over twelve thousand were made and at one point in 1944 Grumman was turning out one Hellcat an hour, 644 in one month; a production record that has never been equalled.

From this outstanding heritage Hangar 9’s F6F Hellcat is bound to be another classic!
Modelled from the popular full-scale Grumman Hellcat the Hangar 9 Hellcat F6F 60 ARF is another splendid addition to Hangar 9’s great warbird line-up. The model includes a pre-painted cowling and canopy, dummy radial engine, photo illustrated assembly guide, hardware pack, and pre-installed heavy-duty metal 90 degree rotating retracts; just like the full-size.
The laser cut balsa and plywood construction ensure lightweight and ruggedness; essential qualities in a warbird, and authentic US Navy two- tone blue and white colour scheme and markings using Hangar 9 UltraCote®. Hangar 9 successfully continue to increase the quality and performance of it’s 60 size warbird range, and the F6F brings to the model flyer a great looking easy to fly warbird that has a very accurate scale outline and detail, while at the same time providing stable flight characteristics. This superb U.S Navy Hellcat continues the Hangar9 tradition of great value, top quality, and super scale realism coupled with superb sport model performance!
