The General Motors FM-2 Wildcat was a carrier-based fighter aircraft used by the U.S. Navy during World War II.
It was a later variant of the Grumman F4F Wildcat, produced under license by General Motors' Eastern Aircraft Division.
The FM-2 featured a more powerful Wright R-1820 engine, which improved its performance, especially in terms of climb rate and agility.
Designed as a lightweight version of its predecessor, the FM-2 had reduced armament and less armor but was easier to handle on smaller escort carriers.
This made it particularly effective in defending convoys and supporting amphibious operations in the Pacific Theater.
The FM-2 played a crucial role in maintaining air superiority during the war, especially in the latter stages.
