A-4E Skyhawk

The A4 Skyhawk was the military's most successful aircraft having had a life span from 1954 to 1979. Over the years, more than 3000 Skyhawk's saw service with the Navy, Marines and with the military of many foreign allies.

Unlike others, the A-4's compact size didn't require folding wings. It's sweptback wings made it a very distinguishable aircraft. Massimo Taccoli and Dennis Seeley modeled this warbird for FSX, FS2004 and FS2002.
