Are you considering an 'E' after this one?![]()


Most of the time, the USN flew with just the centerline tank and armament. The wings tanks were not usually carried on the boat. Of course thre were exceptions, but not the norm.
The Marines, did use the wing tanks from their land bases. Hopefully there is a model to match the USN load out.

That's AWESOME!!!!
Except the "Marines" markings still need an S to make it perfect.Great paint though!

Haha I already forget what I'm doing at least three times a day!Don't ever get old airattackimages!! The thought came to me while doing another part of the paint but then completely forgot the S. Also the large numbers 5754 have been applied to the fuselage.
Corrections made
This little AB animation I've created is just an exercise. No flame as that will be animated later (not static) and the small globes are for alignment for proper angle with the center spark ring.
Sound edited also.
Nice, looks like a fluid transformation with the animation. Is this intended for the CS9 or....?
Didn't see a pitot tube on the long nose radome....like the CS9 variations have.
