Hobby Boss 80222 FM-2 Wildcat Retro Model Kit  [HB-80222]

Hobby Boss 80222 FM-2 Wildcat: Naval Fighter in Miniature

The FM-2 was an offshoot of the Grumman Wildcat family that saw service in World War II. When Grumman concentrated production on the F6F Hellcat, General Motors produced the Wildcat as the FM-1, which then evolved into the FM-2 featuring a Wright R-1820 engine with about 1,350 horsepower and a distinctively taller tailplane.

Building the FM-2 in 1:72

The Hobby Boss 80222 FM-2 Wildcat kit recreates the aircraft at 1:72 scale with precise moulding aimed at both newcomers and experienced modellers. The parts are designed for accurate assembly so you can explore the structural changes that set the FM-2 apart from earlier Wildcats.
