IPA A-22 Casquilho

743 IPAAeronautics  yesterday

The IPA A-22 "Casquilho" is a portuguese attack aircraft.
Developed in the early 50s, this aircraft was made for the Portuguese Naval Aviation, so it is carrier capable.

Took some inspiration on the Blackburn Buccaneer

Name: "Casquilho" is the name of a portuguese sea bird.
Armament:
It features x2 2000kg BNG (Bomba Não-Guiada) (Non Guided Bomb), 2 non guided rockets and the standard 30mm auto cannon

It is not that maneuverable.

Hope you enjoy it :)
