After extensive performance evaluations, the F-77 Wyvern was a bit lacking speed, while also desperately needing important features for it to function as a proper escort fighter. An afterburner was installed in place of the aft radome, which lead to a slight redesign of the horizontal stabilizer and fuselage, making it slightly longer than the original aircraft. Armament was added in the form of twin 50mm cannons with 470 rounds each. Several air-brakes and an arresting hook have been installed for faster landings and carrier landings. Some controls have been changed (throttle and trim) for ease of use.
