Sweet! I've always loved the A-6 Prowler. Never knew some have black speed brakes though. I like it. I am curious to find out what your armaments plans are.

Two words...
Bomb truck!!!!
This pic shows the black speed brakes. Looks a bit goofy to me. I think it's a squadron specific thing.

My thoughts exactly. I read the book and saw the movie. Now I wished I had bought the DVD. The book was better than the movie though...

Got the 14 painted up....not without the worst slew of words I have ever heard...let alone spoken. If it could possibly go wrong...it did. I managed to get through...it did seem that every time I tried to paint, it just screwed up something else....then screw up something else while I was fixing the first screw up. I'M DONE with it...airbrush is in the trash can...so no more painting until a new one arrives. That took about 10x longer than it should have, had things been working normally.
Anyway...
I need a drink.....or several.
