I have not come across a Yahu IP for the AV-8A. But I’m trying not to do any swap out for kit parts other than ordnance on this build. And decals of course. :wink:

Lovely, but you guys are nuts. Wow.

It's really starting to look like a harrier now. Not sure why but I always thought they was all two seaters

Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
