F-5U VALKYRIE

Auto Credit Based on LieutenantSOT's WW2 (Fictional) Fighter Challenge! [CLOSED]

The year is 1944. America's war effort is coming to a close, but the they haven't won yet. They decided they needed a carrier based seaplane for air combat and ship destroying. They designed the F-5U VALKYRIE as a successor to the F-4U CORSAIR. It was a seaplane with landing gear and integrated rocket pods. It was also armed with six 12.7 millimeter macine guns with armor peircing ammo. However, because of range and speed issues, it never saw combat. Ag1 for carrier hook. Good luck!

    This plane looks REALLY good, but I cannot qualify it because it is 51 parts under the part count limit
