Description: The A-37N Sea Fly is the navy version of the A-37B Dragonfly for the Delta Federation. It’s story began in 1987 when the Federation started looking for replacements for the A-5 Sea Leopard (Former F-5 Tiger II) because the A-5 killed over 500 or 87% of people in carrier landing incidents. They also wanted a attacker that can sortie for more than 7 hours at a time. 1 A-37B from the RVNAF was bought for the A-37N-0 (Prototype version) and was tested onboard the DFRN Apex (Øplex class Testing Carrier). Then in 1989 the A-37N-1 was shown at the Paris Airshow and then the Republic of Korea wanted to buy 20 of the A-37N-1. In 1995 the A-37N-2 was released to the world with upgraded radars and a new targeting system. In 2010 the A-37N-3 was released and it came with a new 50mm rotary cannon and front stabilization.
