Tamiya 60752 1/72 Vought F4U-1D Corsair - Vintage warbird modelling kit  [60752]

The F4U-1D Corsair in 1/72 scale

This Tamiya rendition, referencing the Tamiya 60752 release, recreates the Vought F4U-1D Corsair with attention to the type's recognisable lines. The prototype used a Pratt & Whitney radial engine of roughly 2,000 HP and an unusually large propeller for a fighter, features that define its profile.

Model appeal and period upgrades

The 1/72 F4U-1D reflects field improvements such as a frameless canopy for better vision and reinforced wing mounts able to carry ordnance. These traits make the kit appealing to modellers who like to represent late-war configurations.

Construction and display tips

At 1/72 the model is compact but retains key surface detail. It is straightforward to display with other scale aircraft and suits modellers who prefer compact collections or diorama groupings.
