mlicari Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Keeping with my Navy oddball planes, here's my 1/72 A2D Skyshark. It's a Mach 2 kit, so I did my best... :) Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mlicari Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 Nice build mike, i still dont know this plane, congratulations Thanks! The Skyshark was designed in the late 1940s to be a high-performance attack plane, I suppose to replace the Skyraider. It was a failure, mainly due to engine problems (there were several crashes, in fact). About the only useful innovation that came out of the A2D was the development of low-drag bombs...the "slicks" we're all familiar with. <_< Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
