The Vindicator was built by Vought, not Vultee.

Gawd yes! Chance Vought. I knew that, having memorized the navy's
designation system as a little kid and having been stationed at Cherry
Point for several years when there were three or four F4U squadrons
there.

As I remarked on another aviation group (or was it this one? I
forget), a few days ago when I made a similar feeble-minded slip, I'm
getting more senile every day!
