Rex Beisel, ing\u00e9nieur a\u00e9ronautique de Vought Sikorsky, pris en compte les demandes de la Navy et d\u00e9fini les caract\u00e9ristiques de ce qui deviendra le Corsair. Il voulait un chasseur petit et costaud. Pour tenir sur les surfaces r\u00e9duites d&rsquo;un porte avion, il fallait un avion avec des ailes \u00ab\u00a0pliables\u00a0\u00bb, un train d&rsquo;atterrissage cons\u00e9quent pour supporter les appontages et la structure de l&rsquo;avion devait \u00eatre suffisamment grande pour supporter le moteur \u00e0 18 cylindre en double \u00e9toile Pratt &amp; Whitney de 2000 ch que l&rsquo;ing\u00e9nieur avait choisi. Pour optimiser ce moteur , il a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9vu de mettre une h\u00e9lice tripale de 4.06m de diam\u00e8tre. De ces caract\u00e9ristiques, sorti le chasseur avec ces formes bien identifiable, trapu avec des ailes en W.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped has-nested-images columns-default\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"http:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"352\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/?attachment_id=352\" class=\"wp-image-352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/jeromegrandieresphotos.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/GF3A2602.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Reconnaissable entre 1000 avec sa forme en W<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Le projet V166b de Vought Sikorsky fut retenu, et la Navy demanda la construction d&rsquo;un prototype , le XF4U-1. D\u00e9bute alors des essais en soufflerie pour finaliser la forme de l&rsquo;avion, des soudures par point sont utilis\u00e9s pour renforcer la cellule de l&rsquo;avion. L&rsquo;avion est arm\u00e9 de deux mitrailleuses dans chaque ailes ( une de 7.62 mm et l&rsquo;autre de 12.7mm ). Le premier vol a lieu fin mai 1940 . Pendant les premiers vols, l&rsquo;avion montre ces faiblesses mais aussi d&rsquo;ind\u00e9niable qualit\u00e9 ,dont sa robustesse qui sauva le pilote d&rsquo;essai lors d&rsquo;un crash pendant le 5\u00e8me vol. D\u00e9but octobre 1940, apr\u00e8s sa remise en \u00e9tat , le prototype atteint la vitesse de 650 km\/h, c&rsquo;est juste un record de vitesse car aucun autre chasseur am\u00e9ricain de l&rsquo;\u00e9poque n&rsquo;atteint cette vitesse. La Marine d\u00e9cide de faire tester le XF4U-1 par ces pilotes et ce jusqu&rsquo;en f\u00e9vrier 1941. Fin juin 1941 , la Navy commande 548 F4U-1 et le baptise Corsair. Par contre, la Navy a de nouvelles exigences qui feront apporter quelques modifications cons\u00e9quentes sur la cellule de l&rsquo;avion:  int\u00e9gration de  plus de mitrailleuses dans la voilure , ce qui fait que les r\u00e9servoirs initialement pr\u00e9vus dans les bords d&rsquo;attaques sont remplac\u00e9s par un r\u00e9servoir unique et plac\u00e9 dans le fuselage. Modifiant ainsi le centrage de l&rsquo;avion; en effet le r\u00e9servoir prend la place du poste de pilotage et ce dernier est recul\u00e9 d&rsquo;environs un m\u00e8tre , ce qui rend compliqu\u00e9 la visibilit\u00e9 du pilote vers l&rsquo;avant.<br>En septembre 1942, des essais d&rsquo;appontages sont effectu\u00e9s sur le porte avions USS Sangamon. Ces d\u00e9fauts de visibilit\u00e9s \u00e0 l&rsquo;appontage et une tendance \u00e0 rebondir lors du contact avec le pont d&rsquo;envol oblige la Navy \u00e0 prendre la d\u00e9cision de n&rsquo;utiliser le Corsair qu&rsquo;\u00e0 partir de base terrestre. Ceci malgr\u00e9 quelques modifications apport\u00e9es par Vought pour am\u00e9liorer les appontages ( r\u00e9hausse du poste de pilotage , retardateur de d\u00e9crochage, modification roulette et train d&rsquo;atterrissage ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vu son interdiction d&rsquo;appontage, apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9quip\u00e9 la VF12, ce sont finalement les marines qui seront \u00e9quip\u00e9 de cet avion ( dont la fameuse VMF 214 command\u00e9es par le Major Gregory Boyington ). Face aux commandes croissantes de F4U-1, Vought travaillera avec des sous traitants pour construire des Corsair, ainsi Brewster en construit sous la d\u00e9nomination F3A-1 et Good Year sous la d\u00e9nomination FG-1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-0 is-cropped has-nested-images columns-default\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Le Corsair eu diff\u00e9rents d\u00e9veloppements tout au long du conflit  et apr\u00e8s guerre:<br><strong>-Le F4U-1C<\/strong> avec 4 canons de 20 mm \u00e0 la place des mitrailleuses, seulement 200 exemplaires construit  suite \u00e0 des soucis de maintenance des canons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>-Le F4U-1D:<\/strong> emport suppl\u00e9mentaires possibles comme r\u00e9servoirs pendulaires, roquettes et bombe de 450 kg . le moteur est un Pratt et Witney R2800-8W \u00e0 injection de 2250 ch. Vought et Sikorsky se s\u00e9parant , cette version est construite par Chance Vought Aircraft Inc ainsi que par Brewster (F3A-1d ) et Goodyear ( FG-1d). Une derni\u00e8re modification de la course des amortisseurs du train d&rsquo;atterrissage en 1944 permis de supprimer ces rebonds si dangereux et de qualifier le Corsair sur porte avion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plusieurs F4U-1 sont encore en \u00e9tat de vol, surtout aux Etats Unis, on peut en voir un aussi en Angleterre qui traverse la manche de temps en temps pour notre plus grand plaisir.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped has-nested-images columns-default\"><ul
