The Fleet Air Arm were the first to tame the beast for Carrier Landings, even though this 450 MPH Fighter entered US Service in late 1942 it would not be cleared for US Carriers until late 1944. Most of the US Corsairs went to the US Marines for land based operations, the Royal Navy jumped on the massive super powerful and fast fighter bomber, and with a modified carrier approach, cleared it for Carrier operations in 1943 well before the US Navy.
