[[Image:F6F Hellcat.jpg|right]]The '''F6F Hellcat''' was the plane that turned the tide for [[America]] in [[World War II]].  It replaced the F4F Wildcat, and like its predecessor, had an air-cooled piston engine and six heavy machine guns.  This Grumman fighter plane gave [[air supremacy]] to U.S. forces in the [[Pacific]]. More [[Japanese]] planes were shot down by this model than by any other plane.  The top scoring ace in the Hellcat was David McCampbell, who scored 34 aerial victories in the Pacific theater while serving on board the USS Essex.<ref>Aces, by William Yenne, 2000</ref>
