Another naval fighter today, the Grumman F4F Wildcat.

hope you like it :)

A 1938 Grumman F3F-2 "Flying Barrel". Predecessor of the Grumman F4F Wildcat.

 

The Grumman F3F is a biplane fighter aircraft produced by the Grumman aircraft for the United States Navy during the mid-1930s. Designed as an improvement on the F2F, it entered service in 1936 as the last biplane to be delivered to any American military air arm. It was retired from front line squadrons at the end of 1941 before it could serve in World War II, and replaced by the Brewster F2A Buffalo. The F3F, which inherited the Leroy Grumman-designed retractable main landing gear configuration first used on the Grumman FF, served as the basis for a biplane design ultimately developed into the much more successful F4F Wildcat that succeeded the subpar Buffalo.

 

Grumman, wanting to take advantage of the powerful new 950 hp (708 kW) Wright R-1820 supercharged radial engine, began work on the F3F-2 without a contract; the order for 81 aircraft was not placed until 25 July 1936, two days before the type's first flight.The engine's larger diameter changed the cowling's appearance, making the aircraft look even more like a barrel, though top speed increased to 255 mph (410 km/h) at 12,000 ft (3,700 m).

 

The entire F3F-2 production series was delivered in between 1937 and 1938; when deliveries ended, all seven Navy and Marine Corps pursuit squadrons were equipped with Grumman single-seat fighters. Further aerodynamic improvements were made to an F3F-2 (BuNo 1031) based on wind tunnel studies in the NACA Langley 30' x 60' full-scale wind tunnel and became the XF3F-3. It featured a larger-diameter propeller, and a complete revision of the fuselage skinning forward of the aft cabane strut in order to improve aerodynamics and reduce carbon monoxide intrusion. On 21 June 1938, the Navy ordered 27 F3F-3s, as new monoplane fighters like the Brewster F2A and Grumman's own F4F Wildcat were taking longer to develop than had been planned.

The Grumman F4F Wildcat was a carrier based fighter plane in WW2, used by the US and British Navies. The Grumman Marlet is the British version, powered by the Pratt & Whitney R-1830-S3C4-G engine, and fitted with armor and self-sealing fuel tanks.

 

Credit to Mad Physicist for the design of the landing gear, which IMO is really ingenius, whilst at the same the time providing an accurate representation.

 

Took me quite some time to figure out the folding wings, which was so simple in the end!! Afterwards, I found out there were instructions that Mad Physicist had made for his F6F!!! (Different method used, though)

My original LEGO model of the F4F-4 Wildcat. It features retractable landing gear, stowable wings, spinning prop, room for a minifig pilot, and retractable tail hook. Modeled in Sand Blue and Light Bluish Grey.

 

Nose cowling design originally designed by Ralph Savelsberg on his E-1 Tracer.

Hey everyone – despite the fact that my activity has been nothing short of sporadic as of late, I’m finally happy to present to you all my custom LEGO rendition of a Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat from World War II!

The F4F Wildcat was Grumman’s first production monoplane naval fighter. As with many ‘firsts’ in the aviation industry, particularly during the interwar/WWII years, development was expectedly rocky. Before Grumman’s design would be able to be chosen by the Navy as their primary carrier-based frontline fighter, it had to be deemed superior to the reigning one: the Brewster F2A Buffalo. While the initial prototype was marginally quicker than the Buffalo, it possessed inferior maneuvrability to an intolerable degree, and was not proceeded with at this state. However, after fabricating the XF4F-3 prototype and equipping it with the Pratt & Whitney R-1830 “Twin Wasp” engine, Grumman was given a production order to see the resulting F4F-3 production model Wildcats in action with the Navy and Marine Corps, in the end beating out Brewster’s aircraft. Particularly in the early years of the war, it was used extensively – primarily in the Pacific Theatre. While noted as relatively inferior to its common rival there – the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero – USN and USMC pilots fought hard with these Wildcats, developing tactics and learning from hard-earned lessons gained from violent aerial encounters with the enemy. With the determination from the aviators, the F4F had a cumulative kill-to-death ratio of a little under 7:1.

The model itself was fairly challenging to design for me. Incorporating realistic features as seen on real aircraft (for this there’s the 5-degree dihedral, folding wings, and fully retractable landing gear that come to mind) is never an easy challenge. In fact, the wings when folded cannot hold themselves off the ground without assistance, nor can the model sit comfortably on its landing gear without demanding additional support. However, the fact that I was able to work these kinetic features in and still somehow have the model look the part is something I’m pretty proud of. I did design it digitally initially, and ordered the parts through BrickLink, making changes to the digital rendition as I saw fit when the bricks were in hand. All in all, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out (for now), and hope you all like it. Comments and feedback are much appreciated!

PictionID:43925440 - Title:McDonnell F-4F 37 94 JG74 May97 [C. Jacquet via RJF] - Catalog:17 - Filename:17.S_000981.tif - ----Image from the René Francillon Photo Archive. Having had his interest in aviation sparked by being at the receiving end of B-24s bombing occupied France when he was 7-yr old, René Francillon turned aviation into both his vocation and avocation. Most of his professional career was in the United States, working for major aircraft manufacturers and airport planning/design companies. All along, he kept developing a second career as an aviation historian, an activity that led him to author more than 50 books and 400 articles published in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and elsewhere. Far from “hanging on his spurs,” he plans to remain active as an author well into his eighties.-------PLEASE TAG this image with any information you know about it, so that we can permanently store this data with the original image file in our Digital Asset Management System.--------------SOURCE INSTITUTION: San Diego Air and Space Museum Archive
