Version 2 of my previous Skyhawk. Ed Heinemann's hotrod. The A-4 was a very successful aircraft for the US Navy during the vietnam war and after. There are several nations still using this aircraft. The significance of the jet is its small size, with its compact size, its very maneuverable and more can fit into an aircraft carrier. It can carry a large weapons payload. There are only a few Skyhawks left that are airworthy. This version is almost realistic, but the Prototype. Top speed I made this up to is around 300mph. Takeoff speed is 120-130mph. Installed Slats and Flaps. Carrier Approved. Nice plane to fly. Hope you enjoy.
