Riassunto

In 1939 with war on the horizon, the U.S. Navy's Bureau of Aeronautics sent the aviation industry a request for proposal for a new torpedo-bomber (VTB). The competition was won by Grumman with its XTBF-1 proposal. Known as the Avenger, two XTBF-1 prototypes were ordered in the spring of 1940. Vought also had a promising proposal and was awarded a contract for one XTBU-1 prototype.

Product Description:

This volume on the Chance Vought Seawolf is deeply satisfying in its photo documentation and test pilot recollections. A determined builder could almost produce a flying example, which should give model builders a hint at the detail presented in photos and reprints of Vought engineering docs.
