Corsairs in Battlefield 1943
In Battlefield 1943, the Vought F4U Corsair spawns regularly at USMC aircraft carriers and bases and the "Airfield" flags of Wake Island and Iwo Jima and the "Village" flag of Guadalcanal if the USMC captures them beforehand.
In the hands of a skilled player, it can be effective against almost everything. Its armament consists of 2, rapid-firing heavy machine guns and bombs effective for dive bombing enemy targets. Its low maneuverability and high speed can make it difficult to use and make chances to attack very short. It is extremely vulnerable to enemy fighters and 40mm Boforss.
The Corsair features landing gear if one ceases on the throttle, but its speed can make it very difficult to effectively land, so most players prefer to attempt crashing into an enemy and jumping out at the last second or simply parachuting out.
The Corsair is a direct equivalent in stats to the IJN A6M Zero.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2
