I was looking at model Corsair's when I came across Japanese and German Corsairs.I then looked into the stories and there was a mention that it could of been a RNZAF Corsair, but never found hard evidence that it was true.
Anyone know any more on it?

The Germans captured at least one Fleet Air Arm Corsair. Not sure if the pilot was RNZNVR, but maybe the similar roundel fooled whoever wrote it?
I have never heard of a Japanese-captured example.

From what I heard the Japanese captured a couple from forced landings, using spare parts from crashed Corsair's to bring it up to flying standard.
