F6F-5 Hellcat, 1/32 - Trumpeter 02257

Release scheduled for September 2026.

The 02257 reference by Trumpeter reproduces the Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat in 1/32 scale. This is a plastic-injection aircraft model kit to be assembled, dedicated to one of the versions of the famous American aircraft carrier fighter from World War II.

The F6F Hellcat was developed by Grumman for the US Navy. Used from the aircraft carriers of the Pacific, this aircraft became a major U.S. naval aviation fighter during World War II. The F6F-5 version belongs to the most representative serial variants of the Hellcat.

The 1/32 scale offers a large, detailed reproduction, well suited to an assembly where each preparation step, gluing, painting, and decal application is especially important. A plastic primer, suitable paints, a model glue, and precision tools are useful additions to carry the project through successfully.

The Trumpeter 02257 model kit allows you to build a replica of the F6F-5 Hellcat for a collection of U.S. naval aviation, a display dedicated to World War II fighters, or a 1/32-scale diorama.
