Summary
[edit]Description5in FFAR F4U MAG-33 Okinawa Jun1945.jpg | The caption from the archives states: Five-inch (12.7 cm) rockets being loaded under the wing of an Vought F4U Corsair of MAG-33. Just before take-offs, the safety pins are removed and the rockets are ready for charging. Okinawa, Japan, ca. June 1945. This looks more like a FFAR (Forward Firing Aircraft Rocket) than an HVAR (HIgh Velocity Aircraft Rocket). Versions of the FFAR had a 5 inch warhead attached to a 3.5 inch rocket, where the HVAR had a uniform 5 inch diameter. | |||
