Simple enough: Here’s a barebones A-7. With this one, I focused on capturing the shape and dimensions as best as ther parts limitation allowed me to, using blueprints. And I‘d say I got it about 97% right. It's fun to fly as well, if a little too nimble to be called 'realistic'.
Naturally, a lot of characteristic details of the "SLUF" (Short Little Ugly Fella, as the A-7 was lovingly called in its day) are NOT INCLUDED due to the limited resources … like the ginormous air brake, the foldable wings, hook, all-moving tailplane, M61 vulcan gun, etc. so feel free to add any or all of those yourself. Maybe I will expand on this build in the future (i.e.: make it more detailed, realistic and balanced) as I found this challenge pretty inspiring. Thus ... special thanks to @WinsWings, dare I say: the king of SP challenges!
