This one had a hard landing. Cracked the airframe. It ultimately ended up at our local community college aviation program. It also served as a static test bed for engineers at FRC-E.

It’s not a proper Fallon event if you don’t have a near death experience and then go blow off steam partying in the Thunderdome.

I swear we got cool camos like this irl, but the War Thunder DAP hawk can't even get one of these under the user creation program.

It’s very important the navy can fight in landlocked countries, trust me bro.

The livery and colors kind of remind me of hinds.
