The Vought F-8 Crusader (originally F8U) is a single-engine, supersonic, carrier-based air superiority jet aircraft built by Vought for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps (replacing the Vought F7U Cutlass), and for the French Navy. The first F-8 prototype was ready for flight in February 1955. The F-8 served principally in the Vietnam War. The Crusader was the last American fighter with guns as the primary weapon, earning it the title "The Last of the Gunfighters"

Hallo. I uh, made a modification of this to explore an idea, and I'm wondering if I can have your permission to post it. Thanks.
Laugh heartily. jpg
Nice ride, love it!
Exterior frame and detailing is very beautiful and smooth, however the cockpit could be improved on.
My love.
You kinda made the RF-8 Crusader
