The Douglas A-4 Skyhawk was a sing-seat subsonic carrier-capable attack aircraft developed for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps in the early 1950s. Just a little info about the A-4 Skyhawk. I also totally didn't get this info from google. Anyways this aircraft is my first replica in a while and honestly, I really enjoyed building it. VTOL down=flaps G=LandingGear AG1=nav lights AG2=arresting hook. Enjoy!!!

Well from what I saw of pictures of a-4s its accurate. But Maybe some models have longer nose gear than other models idk.@EchoFiveWhiskey
Nice! Responsive plane. My question is about the nose gear. Seems a little long. Is that how the skyhawk was really built? Mames it a bit unstable for take offs and landings I think.
Really nice build!
Thank you!@AtlasAviation
