![]() The Grumman TBF/TBM seems to be a pretty big plane at 54 feet wingspan and 40 foot length. The SB2C is only 50 feet by 37. I haven't looked at all World War 2 carrier planes, but the TBF is bigger than the F6F (and thus F4F by default) Heck, even the F4U is only 41 x 33.5 feet. Was the name "Beast" in reference to horsepower or flying characteristics? That, brings up another question: what was the largest planes used on WW2 carriers? (Not counting B-25 for Mitchels Raid) |
