When the Jundroo Navy was investgating ways to disassociate from expensive carriers and vulnerable air bases, they requested the Grommet Corporation build a prototype amphibious jet fighter, the Drake. Due to saltwater corrosion and ingestion issues, the concept never really "took off", but the F3A delivered better than expected performance. Instructions: Just a fun project until I complete a more serious build, so enjoy! Extend the landing gear for land-based ops and keep it retracted when operating off of water. Fly safe!
