SUPER DECALS SHEET
The LTV A-7 Corsair II was designed and implemented in the first half of
the 1960s to satisfy the specific United States Navy request to have a
new carrier-capable light attack aircraft able to replace the Douglas
A-4 Skyhawk and the piston-powered Douglas A-1 Skyraider. It was
directly developed by the fighter Vought F-8 Crusade airframe. The A-7
was characterized by the large frontal air intake under the cabin, by
the 35° foldable swept wing to optimize the use and the storage on the
aircraft carriers flight decks and by the adoption of a modern
Head-up-Display to enhance the operational effectiveness. Thanks to its
underwing hardpoints the A-7 was able to carry an impressive offensive
load based on conventional bombs, guided bombs as the Paveway and
air-to-surface missiles. The A-7E was the last version produced for the
U.S Navy with an improved operational capability and the possibility to
use the Harpoon anti-ship missiles and the AGM-88 HARM anti-radiation missiles.

Fair gesagt: Eine Herausforderung
Überzeugend für mich die Decalauswahl, weniger erfreulich die Spritzqualität. Viel Flash und häufig schwer erkennbare Trennlinien an den Teilen. Die Rumpfmontage brauchte Füllspachtel. 10g Kontergewicht in die kleine Nasenspitze zu bekommen: sportlich. Ich habe den großzügig dimensionierten und nahezu undetallierten Lufteinlaß gewählt. Klasse finde ich die sehr großzügig beigefügten Aussenlasten und schließlich das Endergebnis: warum sich nicht mal ein bisschen anstrengen!🤗
