LTV A-7 Corsair II
A-7 Corsair II původně měl u US Navy nahradit stroje Douglas A-4 Skyhawk. Jeho konstrukce byla odvozena z letounu Vought F-8 Crusader ale ve srovnání s F-8 byl A-7 menší a omezený na podzvukové rychlosti. Jeho drak byl jednodušší a levnější z hlediska výroby. Následně po nabídce do soutěže na požadavek amerického námořnictva VAL (Heavier-than-air, Attack, Light) byla počáteční smlouva na tento typ vystavena 8. února 1964.
The LTV A-7 Corsair II is an American carrier-capable subsonic light attack aircraft manufactured by Ling-Temco-Vought (LTV) to replace the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk. Its airframe design is a somewhat smaller version of the supersonic Vought F-8 Crusader.
