Known as the Hellcat, the Grumman F6F series was designed to replace the F4F Wildcat series.\u00c2\u00a0 Although similar in many respects to the F4F, the Hellcat was an entirely new design.\u00c2\u00a0 Fitted with a 2,000 hp Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine spinning a 3 blade Hamilton Standard propeller the F6F-5 had a top speed of 380 mph and a combat radius of 945 miles.\u00c2\u00a0 It was armed with six .50 cal machine guns (3 in each wing) and could carry up to six 5in HVAR\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s (High Velocity Aircraft Rocket), and\/or 4,000 lbs of bombs (1 x 2,000 lb bomb on a centerline rack and 1,000 lbs of bombs under each wing).\u00c2\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Hellcat made its combat debut against the Japanese on September 1st<\/sup> 1943.\u00c2\u00a0 U.S. Navy and Marine Corps pilots flew 66,530 combat sorties in Hellcats by the end of World War Two.\u00c2\u00a0 The pilots claimed to have shot down 5,163 enemy aircraft while losing 270 Hellcats.\u00c2\u00a0 This 19:1 kill ratio (based on claimed, not confirmed kills) gives the Hellcat a kill ratio unmatched by any other U.S. Navy fighter in World War II.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
