History: The Aerostyle Aviation F-276 was meant as a light attack aircraft to serve in the Vietnamese conflict. It sat a pilot and one weapons officer. It was equipped with two 20mm cannons in the wing roots and 13 hardpoints (10 under the wings and 3 under the fuselage). It was only sent on one combat mission, where the aircraft only shot down one MiG and three trucks, causing the program to be cancelled.
