F6F Hellcat On Flight Deck

This vintage style military aviation travel poster “F6F Hellcat On Flight Deck” artwork is dedicated to all those who served in the United States Navy in WWII.

The Grumman F6F “Hellcat” was a carrier-based fighter aircraft conceived to replace the earlier F4F Wildcat in the United States Navy. The Hellcat was an rival of the faster Vought F4U Corsair for use as a carrier based fighter. However, the Corsair had significant issues with carrier landing that the Hellcat did not, allowing the Hellcat to dominant as a fighter in the second part of World War II, a position the Hellcat did not relinquish.
