This was a highly anticipated project, i've been working on it since March 27th. It flies nicely, exept for a few fuel issues. History: In 1953, when the first Wyvern models entered service, the SAAF was having serious issues with opposing forces. The SAAF's FL-1a and FL-1b models weren't making the cut. The RAF was generous enough to give the SAAF 1,500 Wyvern models. Even if the Wyverns were put to use, they wouldn't meet the SAAF's needs. So, all 1,500 were modified for their specific purpose. The model you see here is the 1954 Navy model. Sorry For No Landing gear!! Loadout: 8 Rockets, 1 Torpedo and 4 Cannons. Thanks to @Fastdan for the propellor and torpedo. @Strikefighter04 Thanks, Scott The Aviator
