Hey guys, I have put a lot of effort into this little build so I really hope you all enjoy. This is a Grumman A-6E Intruder which has always been one of my fav planes. I hope I have done the beauty justice here. The colours are ruffly based off the standard navy looks. Please Upvote!

3 is the landing hook (yes this works on USS Beast!)

2 is for the car engine (recommended for ground taxi, use volt in small amounts to drive using VOLT)

As always, thank you so much for clicking and please leave an upvote, it would mean a lot to me :) Here is a brief summary on the aircraft, The Grumman A-6 Intruder is an American, twinjet all-weather attack aircraft built by Grumman Aerospace. In service with the United States Navy and Marine Corps between 1963 and 1997, the Intruder was designed as an all-weather medium attack aircraft to replace the piston-engined Douglas A-1 Skyraider. When the A-6E was scheduled for retirement, its precision strike mission was taken over by the Grumman F-14 Tomcat equipped with a LANTIRN pod. From the A-6, a specialized electronic warfare derivative, the EA-6B Prowler, was developed.
