	A-7 Corsair II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A-7 Corsair II The Ling-Temco-Vought A-7 Corsair II was a light attack aircraft based on the F-8 Crusader.
		The A-7 Corsair II was tagged with the nickname "SLUFF" (Short, Little, Ugly Fat Fucker) by pilots, a nickname also shared by the A-10 "Warthog".
		The A-7 was based on the earlier F-8 Crusader, but had a broader, shorter fuselage with a wing of increased span and area.

	F4U Corsair
		The Corsair was much faster than the Zero, had a better roll rate, and could dive away to safety when necessary.
		Corsair pilots established a very satisfactory kill ratio against Japanese fighters, and helped turn the tide in the Solomons (and later battles).
		The Corsair was, without a doubt, one of the great fighters of WW II, and just about the first carrier based fighter that could hold its own with the best land based fighters.

	The Vought F4U Corsair
		The Corsair was a major player in air races for several years, until serious accidents led to the effective suspension of air racing in the early 1950s.
		At its peak, the Corsair equipped 19 FAA squadrons.
		Although by this time the Corsair was outmatched in air combat by the new jet fighters, it was still an excellent attack aircraft, and so Vought designed an optimized close-support variant of the Corsair, originally to be designated the "F4U-6" but going into service as the "AU-1", with the "A" emphasizing its attack role.

	A-7 Corsair II
		A-7 Corsair II The A-7 is a modern, sophisticated, integrated, highly versatile airborne weapon system capable of performing a variety of search, surveillance and attack missions.
		Since the A-7 is a subsonic aircraft, however, no area ruling is incorporated in the fuselage, which is also shorter and deeper than that of the supersonic F-8.
		The shorter length of the fuselage together with the slight "upsweep" of the underside of the afterbody allow the A-7 to be rotated to a significantly higher pitch angle on takeoff and landing, without tail scrape, than was possible for the F-8.

	A-7 Corsair II - 3
		The A7 corsair II is one of the most successful light attack military aircraft ever made.
		This A-7 Corsair II jet fighter was originally attached to VA-125, the Rough Raiders, stationed at NAS Lemoore near Lemoore California which is about 32 miles south of Fresno.
		This training was on the flight characteristics of the A-7, use of its specialized avionics (Aviation Electronics) and weapons systems, bombing procedures, combat maneuvers and low level tactics in the mountains, not to mention, of course, emergency procedures and fleet operations.

		The new Corsair is the first of the line to have a name instead of a numerical model designation.
		The reason, according to an Arai spokesman, is because the Corsair incorporates so many new and patented features "it represents a major step forward in the RX line".
		The Corsair's new "enhanced organic" shell shape was designed to conform more to the head's natural shape for improved comfort and fit, to seal better, and to further minimize wind turbulence.

	Vought F4U-7 Corsair by Darren Mottram (Academy, Heller and Others 1/48) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Originally I had planned to cut the extra fuselage length, as a plug, from the Heller kit and add it to the front of the Academy kit, but when I went to mate them up, I found that the exhaust "cut-outs" around the fuselage didn't line up fully.
		I went into the modelling room to check if everything was OK when, as I was walking across the room, I felt something roll along the floor under my foot.
		This, combined with some very unfavorable comments I was just beginning to hear concerning the base kit's accuracy (or lack thereof), made me decide to just give up on the kit and shove it to the back of a cupboard.

		I noticed that the trailing edge of the wings was quite thick, a trait that is obviously shared on all Italeri Corsair kits that share the same basic engineering pieces - like the 5N kit which shares more or less the same parts.
		The wing sub assembly was attached to the fuselage and the gaps were very minimal with a little bit of filler needed in the belly section where the underwing piece meets the fuselage cavity.
		The decals conformed to the surface very well and although the white was a little off due to the dark background they were still in very good register.
