Whistling Death F4U Corsair

[@BritIronRebel]

My father flew the F4U Corsair as a USMC aviator, Pacific Theatre, WWII. I've even got some old black and white photos if him in the cockpit.

[@ThebaseMan11]

Omg that sounds soooooo cool!!!! I’ve never seen one in real life, but it has been my favorite plane for years!

[@Alain_Mendez]

Make a video of your father's photos, they are historical photos bro

What a dumb comment

[@santiagocantuborjas9060]

The erie sound that scared the Japanese troops when they would hear driving towards them.

[@samsarex4318]

Germany had the stuka America had this

[@C77-C77]

I figure your talking about the sounds each made, but it must be said that the Corsair would absolutely annihilate a Stuka. Any allied fighter during WWII would, actually. A stuka could only be used if the Germans had full control of the airspace. They tried using them during the battle of britain, but quickly found out they were too slow and useless and pulled them from the battle before they were all shot down.

[@samsarex4318]

@@C77-C77 yes I was preferring to the sounds they made and I do agree that the Corsair could absolutely annihilate a Stuka in a dogfight the Stuka was just a bomber and that's it because if it got into a dogfight with almost anything it was basically screwed unless something like a bf-109 or a fw-190 was with it

[@C77-C77]

@@samsarex4318 I figure thats what you meant. Ya, the Stuka was a bomber, but that didn't stop Goring from using it in situations it didn't belong in. lol not the brightest dude. I def think a Corsair would take out a 109 or 190 too. Too bad they never faced off. The US had a bunch of badass planes, but they pretty much stuck with the P-40, P-51, and P-47 in europe. Most of the planes in inventory saw time in the Pacific. The Corsair is def my fave warbird, but I would have loved to have seen the Bearcat in combat, what an absolute beast...too bad the war was over before they got it to the pacific. It was on it's way though, just missed.

[@imikewillrockyou]

The F4U Corsair remained in service long after WWII had ended. Something about that air frame and engine combination made this aircraft a force to be reckoned with.

[@nanreynolds9351]

There are many stories told by japanese pilots that said if you heard this sound from behind you, your time on earth was no more. The Japanese referred to the Corsair as "Shi No Sakebigoe". Which translates as "Screaming Death".

[@elijahwolter9235]

Imagine how scary this sound would be for the enemy and how relieving it was for the U.S.

[@jibeco]

Wow. 2 thumbs up. I'm F4U Corsair buff. The Best.

Oil coolers humming Whistling Death.

[@mikeframe5450]

Could it be the gun ports, as on the Mustang? Seems more likely to me.

[@johnnywad7728]

It was my understanding that it's the superchargers that create that sound.

[@rsa-runwaysafetyarea1915]

yes, In order to keep the Corsair as aerodynamically clean as possible, designers made sure there was nothing protruding into the surrounding air to produce additional drag. In addition to the innovative “bent-wing” design, the intake for the aircraft’s turbo-supercharger, intercooler and oil cooler were located in slots in the inboard leading edges of the wings. Air running through those slots at high speeds gave the aircraft a very distinctive sound.

[@faithismyskyfall]

İ believe tips of the propeller blades reach supersonic speeds

[@Caseyandlola4579]

That’s more chilling than the ju87😳

[@captin-crane3324]

That sound told you. You have a two ton bird with enough firepower to Swiss cheese a five story building coming at you at over 400 m/h

[@mustafahakansandk7747]

[@apersondoingthings5689]

@@jacksondevine3870 no at the end of the war nothing really could compare to the corsair. It was kind of insane at everything. Only spitfires with full wings could out turn them at medium altitude. In medium speeds corsairs could smoke zeros in turn fights. The Corsair was easily the fourth fastest fighter of the war after the me 163, me 262, and p47m. Only post war planes could really match the raw performance of the F4U-4 and then the U.S. came out with the F4U-5
