I can't get too jazzed about an A-7...oh well my wait for an F-8 continues...

Sidewinders is the super-obvious release.

But I'll point out something----the intake's a separate plastic piece. Hmmmmn. Could either be that they're planning to do the entire family from A to E, or just a sign they copied the Fujimi kit. I also wonder about a D model, as while that has the same intake area, there's many "small bits" to add on all around the fuselage to do one of those. (There's no chance of it being made, but there's no A-7 I want more than a D model of the 132FW---IA ANG)

Or even better, one of their A-7K's:

(two-seaters are neat)

As for Sidewinders---how about the CAG with the rainbow diamonds on the rudder?

Both squadrons actually had cameo appearances from the movie "The Final Countdown". So, it is indeed a continuation of themed a/c seen from that movie then. I really like both schemes actually, so bring it ON!

A couple of pics I found of the actual squadrons..

For "not the Final Countdown" colorful Navy planes, I'd like to see VA-93:

That Sidewinders CAG bird look pretty good to me! My just have to pick one up if released.

Too bad about the A-7D - would have liked to have gotten an AF copy as well...

Sweeet --- the A-7 is one of my favorite jets for sure (could be because it shares its name with my favorite WW II bird, too

)

Now, what means SLUF? (hangs head in shame...)

Nothing ugly about the A-7 in my book! (thanks for the edification Fly!)
