IJN-Seversky 8V-1 Dick
Evolved in parallel with the P-35, the 2PA was a two-seat fighter and fighter-bomber with a fundamentally similar
airframe and offered with either a similar undercarriage to that of the single-seater as the 2PA-L (Land)
In what proved to be an unpopular move for Seversky, 20 2PA-B3s were sold to the Japanese Navy, which briefly
employed them in the Second Sino-Japanese War as Navy Type S Two-Seat Fighter or A8V-1 (Allied codename
"Dick"). The Japanese were unimpressed with the aircraft and eventually relegated two of them to the Asahi Shimbun
newspaper as "hacks."
Texture only for the A.F.Scrub Seversky P-35 with modified DP file
Happy landings
