The F4F Wildcat was a staple of the US and Royal Navies around 1942/43. British Test pilot Eric 'Winkle' Brown considered it the 'outstanding' naval fighter of the early war years, although in the Pacific, early versions of the Wildcat were significantly inferior in performance to the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero. Improved tactics and better marksmanship offset to some extent the performance deficiencies until better aircraft like the Grumman Hellcat and Vought Corsair became available.
More than 7,800 Wildcats of various marks were produced, more than a dozen remain in flying condition to this day.
This one is owned by The Fighter Collection and based at Duxford, from where it is seen departing.

🎶Somethin' must've gone wrong in my brain
Got your chemicals all in my veins
Feelin' all the highs, feel all the pain🎶
🎶Let go of the wheel, it's the bullet lane
Now I'm seein' red, not thinkin' straight
Blurrin' all the lines, you intoxicate me🎶
🎶Just like nicotine, heroin, morphine
Suddenly, I'm a fiend and you're all I need
All I need, yeah you're all I need🎶
🎶It's you, babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move, babe
And I could try to run, but it would be useless
You're to blame
Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never be the same🎶

Many hundreds of these served with the Royal Navy in WW2, where earlier marks were known as the Martlet. They have a somewhat mixed reputation as a fighter aircraft - US Navy Wildcats often didn't fare well against Japanese Zero fighters in the Pacific.
More than 7,000 Wildcat variants were built, and quite a few remain flyable today - although this is currently the only airworthy such machine in the UK. It can often be seen flying at Duxford air shows.
Wikipedia: The Grumman F4F Wildcat is an American carrier-based fighter aircraft that entered service in 1940 with the United States Navy, and the British Royal Navy where it was initially known as the Martlet. First used by the British in the North Atlantic, the Wildcat was the only effective fighter available to the United States Navy and Marine Corps in the Pacific Theater during the early part of the Second World War. The disappointing Brewster Buffalo was withdrawn in favor of the Wildcat and replaced as aircraft became available.
From 1942 on, production of the Wildcat (in fact nearly three quarters of its the total production) was subcontracted to a purposely established division of General Motors: the Eastern Aircraft Division.
En las noches de Halloween, cuando la luna llena ilumina las calles oscuras, aparece La Dama Roja. Vestida con un elegante vestido rojo, su figura etérea se desliza silenciosamente por los callejones y plazas. La leyenda dice que ella fue una vez una mujer inocente, brutalmente asesinada por hombres crueles que cometieron pecados atroces contra mujeres y niños.
Cada Halloween, La Dama Roja regresa del más allá, buscando justicia. Su misión es encontrar a aquellos que han cometido actos horrendos y hacerlos enfrentar las consecuencias de sus acciones. Con una mirada penetrante y un aura de justicia implacable, ella se asegura de que ningún mal quede sin castigo.
Los habitantes del pueblo saben que, cuando La Dama Roja aparece, es mejor quedarse en casa y reflexionar sobre sus acciones, porque ella no muestra piedad a los culpables. Su presencia es un recordatorio de que el mal siempre será confrontado y que la justicia, aunque tarde, siempre llega.
Probably, the most immersive gallery at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum is Gallery 203 Sea Air Operations which is themed as an aircraft carrier. You enter by coming aboard across the quarterdeck onto the hanger deck. The gallery offers multiple levels, viewing angles and a number of aircraft. Aircraft shown here include:
1.The Boeing F4B-4, a biplane that was used by the Navy during the 1920 and 30s.
2.The Grumman F4F Wildcat, designed in the early 1930s saw action during the early months of World War II.
3.The Douglas SBD-6 Dauntless was the Navy’s standard dive bomber when the United States entered World War II.
4.The Douglas A4-C Skyhawk was a versatile attack-bomber designed in the 1950s and used by the Navy and Marines throughout the Vietnam War.

I believe the aircraft is suppose to be a Grumman F4F Wildcat.

A build I've had for a while now, and was definitely fun to experiment around with when I was building. It is part of a much larger build that's on it's way. Enjoy!

The Wildcat was built throughout the Second World war to serve on escort carriers, where larger and heavier fighters could not be used.
