Grumman F6F model airplane. The F6F Hellcat was ordered for the US Navy after the initial shock of Allied contact with superior Japanese fighters, particularly the Mitsubishi A6M Zero, during the first few months of the Pacific War. As a result of this experience of combat against higher-performance machines the Hellcat's specification required the most powerful engine available. The prototype X6F-1, a progression from the F4F Wildcat which was then the standard fighter of the Navy, was provided with a 1700hp Wright R-2600 engine, but a month later - on 26 June1942 - it was re-engined with a 2000hp Pratt and Whitney R-2800 (the birth of the F6F therefore coinciding almost exactly with the great carrier Battle of Midway, 4-6 June 1942, in which its predecessor - the Grumman F4F Wildcat - played a critical role).

The Hellcat was eventually credited with destroying more than 6,000 Japanese aircraft - 4,947 of these by F6Fs of the USN carrier squadrons (209 of the others by land-based Marine Corps F6Fs, and the remainder by Hellcats of other Allied countries). The F6F's most spectacular exploit was the destruction of more than 160 enemy aircraft in one day - 19 June 1944 - in the Battle of the Philippine Sea, in the aerial massacre usually known as "The Great Marianas Turkey Shoot."

A total of 2,545 Hellcats were delivered in 1943, in 1944 no fewer than 6,139, and in 1945 a further 3,578 - total production was 12,272 units.

Scale: 1/48. Wingspan 10 1/2 inches, Length 8 1/2 inches.

Bright
Very pleased with the light output from this solar light. Really shines a very large patch. I’v placed it in a area that needed some extra light so my security cameras can see a bit better overnight. This light did great. Anything in its area is easily identifiable. It went together fast and with full sunlight lasts till almost dawn. I’ll be getting a second so I have a matching pair. Four Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!

Love these solar lights
Why I chose to buy these expensive version of the solar lights: (1) 11 hours (hi setting light 80 lumen) to 18 hours (lo setting light 10 lumen) once fully charged by the solar. (2) The light emitted by the light bulbs are bright, and stay bright from dusk to dawn (3) Large battery capacity compared to competitors - 3.2 volts. (4) Bright bright bright - look like a real electricity powered light bulbs. (5) The morph solar panel is big, so it's able to absorb more solar power from every angles.

Quality all the way around
Size: 2 Pack
Build quality is excellent with both plastic an metal parts. Can't say how long they will last, but my Gamma Sonic solar pole light is still going after 5-6 years. I also have some Gamma Sonic solar spot lights still working after 3 years. Expensive but worth it in the long run.

Very happy with these. Have several now.
Have many of these now. Seems like GOOD quality and heavier than most. I love the square and that fact that you can have either soft warm light or cool light with just a switch. Solar seems strong enough too.

Great
Color: Black, Size: 4 Pack
These outdoor lights are substantial, all metal. I have owned a set for 2 years now and they work great. That's why I ordered them again for another outdoor space.
