Trumpeter 02832 1/48 F9F-2 Panther
Grumman’s F9F “Black Panther” is the company’s first jet fighter and the second jet of the U.S. Navy.
First flew in 1947, it is powered by a Pratt Whitney J-42 engine which is a licensed production model of Rolls-Royce’s “Nien” turbojet engine.
Because the fuel consumption of jet aircraft is relatively large, only relying on the fuel tanks in the wings and fuselage cannot obtain the required range, so auxiliary fuel tanks are added at the wingtips. Type F9F-2B: Bombs and rocket pylons were added under the wings.
Later, all F9F-2s were modified in this way, so the “B” type was later removed from the name.
