Martlet Mk. IV by Captain Kurt

This is a new model of the GM Martlet Mk. IV for CFS 2.

These aircraft were supplied under Lend-Lease, and were the last Wildcats built for the FAA by Grumman, and the first to be called Wildcats. The Mk.IV reverted to the Wright R-1820-40 Cyclone with a single speed, two-stage supercharger. These were equivalent to the F4F-4B. All had folding wings with 3 guns per wing and had 240 rounds per gun.

The textures supplied follow their history serving with the Fleet Air Arm:

"O o 7D" FN112 flown by Lt Denis Jeram of 888 sqn FAA, operating from HMS Formidable during Operation Torch, North Africa, November 1942.

"7 o F" FN245 898sqn FAA. HMS Victorious deployed to the SWPTO in the spring of 1943. She operated as a dedicated "fighter" carrier with USS Saratoga as cover for the New Georgia landings. The few photos that exist seem to show the RN's Martlet's had been repainted in the US Navy's new tricolor scheme, even though Saratoga's Air Group was still operating in the earlier 2 colour scheme!

"O o 9P" FN142 893sqn FAA. This aircraft flying from HMS Formidable during the assaults on Sicily & Italian mainland, July-September 1943

"Q" FN168 Aircraft used by Lt E.S. Erikson of 811 sqn FAA to shoot down a Junkers Ju290, 16th Fabruary 1944, whilst operating from HMS Biter as escort for a Gibraltar-bound convoy.
