F6F-3N Hellcat, 1/32 - Trumpeter 02258

Release scheduled for November 2026.

The reference 02258 from Trumpeter features the F6F-3N Hellcat at 1/32, in its night fighter version. This build-it-yourself model reproduces one of the Hellcat’s nocturnal derivatives, an American carrier-based aircraft from World War II.

The F6F Hellcat was used by the US Navy in the Pacific. The F6F-3N variant was intended for night fighter operations, making it a particularly interesting subject for a presentation dedicated to American naval aviation from the 1941-1945 period.

At a scale of 1/32, this model offers a format well suited to detailed assembly and careful finishing of the airframe, cockpit area, landing gear, and the overall detailing and decals. Assembly requires the usual supplies for static model building: appropriate glue, preparation tools, paints, and finishing products depending on the desired result.
