The W.A.R. F4U Corsair is a 50% scale homebuilt replica of the Chance-Vought F4U Corsair Second World War carrier fighter.
The aircraft is a single place, single engine gull-wing design with retractable conventional landing gear. The F4U was the second completed aircraft in the W.A.R. series, with the first example displayed at the EAA airshow in 1975. The aircraft featured folding wings.
A WAR F4U built by Fred Bauer Jr. was featured as the cover plane on the January 1980 Popular Mechanics. The plane was built from plans that cost $145.
Some versions were built using Lycoming O-235 and HCI radial engines. One example was built using a Rotec R2800 radial engine.
