Derived from the Grumman-built F4F-4, our FM-2 Wildcat variant was manufactured by General Motors and featured several design improvements, including a modified tail, more powerful engine (Wright Cyclone R-1820-56) and a reduced number of wing-mounted machine guns to provide greater room for ammunition.
The FM-2 was the most numerous and best performing Wildcat with 1,350 horsepower, bigger vertical tail surfaces and more fuel capacity, earning the name the “Wilder Wildcat.” The FM-2 had four wing guns versus six in the Grumman F4F-4.
