F4U4-Vmax 446 mph @ 26200 ft, rate of climb 3870 fpm, F2G1D-Vmax 435 mph, rate of climb 4400fpm, the F2G could touch 399 mph at sea level whereas the F4U4 could do 380 mph at sea level. Incidently, that 380 mph at sea level for the 4 was the fastest of all US ww2 production fighters in "normal" trim.
