Zoukei-Mura 1/32 DOUGLAS A-1J Skyraider U.S.AIR FORCE

Sometimes called glimpses of the cold mountainous terrain from the ship and sometimes again, and sometimes the most reliable person in the jungle sky

The A-1J has not undergone any major modifications since the A-1H, and the wing folding mechanism and arresting hooks have been left intact. The main points of the upgrade to the Air Force type are small antennas. The FM622 whip antenna is installed diagonally behind the cockpit, and the UHF blade antenna is installed behind the AN / ARN-6 radio loop compass antenna. Some aircraft are equipped with a VHF / FM antenna, commonly called the "towel hanger", on the underside of the fuselage, just after the air brake, and a blade antenna just before the ACL (collision prevention light) at the top of the vertical tail.

In addition, the tail wheel is equipped with a large diameter and the main landing gear is changed to a one-piece type in consideration of operation on unpaved runways in Southeast Asia. It also features taxi lights on the undersides of the left and right wing tips and the "Yankee Extraction System" that was not equipped in the early Sky Raiders. Of course, in SWS's A-1J, these are completely reproduced.

An aircraft that is indispensable for talking about the Vietnam War, a distinctive SEA scheme in three colors.
