Navy Revolt...1/48 Vought F4U-5 Corsario, Comando de Aviacion Naval Argentina


Recommended Posts

Another latin girl from 2016 now presented in my new style.

Hasegawa F4U-5N kit, Aztec decals, True Details cockpit, Gunze and Tamiya acrylics, EZ Line for brake lines and antenna wire, the "T" antenna on the belly was taken from the ancient Hasegawa F4U-4 kit.

The model shows one of the dayfighter Corsairs that were involved in the Argentinean Navy revolution attempt in 1963 when they defended their base against the army. The last Argentinean Corsairs were retired in 1965.

Your father is really very talented and always have the knack of choosing the most interesting schemes ever painted on aircrafts.

I usually suggest them or convince him to do more uncommon schemes. I'll try to keep that up 😉

The Hasegawa F4U 5N is a great kit and you have done a  superb job with it, I love it

That's right, only the dashboard weapon switches are missing and the wheels are a bit thin, besides that a really good kit.

 

 

 

Thanks to both of you!
