Вот чего пишут:
"Nobody was really happy with the new Wildcat (F4F-4) in relation of F4F-3s, and all squadrons voiced similar complains: reduced climb, range and
firing time.
"The folding wings (F4F-4s) was, in nearly every documented case considered the only advatgae F4F-4s over F4F-3" page 63
"The addition of two more gubs in the F4F-4 was, as Thach noted, not necessarily a benefit. It actually reduced amount of ammunition carried and impossed a weighty penalty with extra weapons and their mounts. The F4F-3 packed a mazimum capacity of 1800 rounds (four guns, each with 450 rounds) while new Wildcat loaded 1440 (240 round of each six guns)..page 64
