The F6F Hellcat is one of the most unique fighter planes of WWII. It was the only fighter SPECIFICALLY designed & built, to hunt down and kill the A6M Zero fighter. In that arena, it was successful; with the highest kill rate of any allied fighter.
In 1942, a fully intact A6M Zero was discovered in Alaska upside down, with it's dead pilot still in the cockpit. The machine was disassembled and transported to San Diego California. The Grumman Aircraft Company studied the machine, analyzed it, found it's strong points and it's weak spots, reassembled it, and had it test flown by US pilots over California (WITH US MARKINGS ON IT).
From that intelligence, the Zero Killer was born; the F6F Hellcat.
