All the major (and most of the minor) aircraft used in Vietnam are now in the game. We have 4 left to do that have one or two stories attributed to them that we wish to tell.

But there is one major airplane that has been left out all this time. I have always felt its absence was a glaring error. It's modeled. It's flight ready. It's weapons are tricked. It's in paint today and tomorrow. We are scrambling to get it in before we release YAPv2.

Can you guess what the missing piece is?

Okay. Take a look.

Easy! Supermarine Seafire Mk 45. You can tell, 'cos it doesn't have the Mk 46's larger tail.


....... er, this is the FAA forum, right....... right?

You mean they used them in the desert, too? Ours are the ones used in stories about Vietnam. They look like this...and thanks to Spectre for his face again.











And thanks to Julhelm for this late addition. Nice model.
