Summary

Descended from the F4F Wildcat, the Grumman F6F Hellcat came into service with the Pacific Fleet mid 1943, and over the next two years proved to be the most successful aircraft in naval history - with over 5,000 air-to-air kills in the Pacific, and the highest kill ratio of any US fighter plane in service in WW II. Detailing the Hellcat's design and development, telling the pilot's stories, tracing the aircrafts adventures through to the end of WW II, this lavishly illustrated book is a fitting tribute to a fighter plane unmatched in the annals of naval warfare.
