Panzer check reply further up in regards to your "sea wolf" pic. Cheers

I have the picture of the jet in a book called "The World's 50 Worst Aircraft" which is over a friend's house..... damn it.

It was the world's most retarded technology fighter having a 1950's RADAR system in a 1980's fighter.

That's if it is that one.

yes it is a sea wolf. At least YOUR PIC is a sea wolf.


Unl;ess your thinking of a different plane to the pic, which i would then guess your thinking of maybe the brewster bucanner, lend lease name with the fleet air arm - burmuda.

The tail is low set, the Sea Wolf has a high tail.

The trainer in question is pretty much a house hold name and a familiar sight at airshows.

Most of this particular aircraft was flown by Commonwealth naval pilots.

They made the RAF's only dive bomber, which was used in Burma.

vultee vengeance

1 point for company name.... the "Vultee Tail" gave it away.

Needless to say the name will start with a V, so what is it??

Vulcan607 01-27-2010 05:54 PM

Xa-31a?

Vulcan607 01-27-2010 05:56 PM

Could it be the Chenyang J-7 then? I don't think it was build under licence either. Its just a cheap knock off Mig21.

For their next plane the, J-8, they just stuck the nose section of a mig23 onto a mig21 lol :rolleyes:
