If I had the coin......
And today I learned something. I never even knew about the Skyray.
Douglas F4D Skyray - Wikipedia
So they took a Navy Able Dog and slapped an AF paint job on it? Meh . . . so much for historical accuracy.
Just repaint it.
Interesting...MODEX and tail code painted on the upper wing. Don't recall seeing that before.
It’s VERY accurate! The Navy was transitioning out of the A-1 Skyraider as Vietnam conflict heated up so it was replaced by A-6 Intruder. However, the USAF needed escorts for the Jolly Green Giant rescue helos and took the former Navy Skyraiders and created the “Sandy” that flew deep into North Vietnam as well as Laos and other I acknowledged areas chronicled in this excellent book: My Secret War Richard Drury
