Douglas A2D skyshark

Hmm...BuNum decals will be a bit of a stretch, as only 2 were built (at least that i know of). But, hey, decals is EASY!!

 

Well, I have the Max file for MontyCZ's A-1H around here someplace (he was kind enough to send to me when I asked for some changes in his old model, which now has more meshes, folding wings and someother goodies -note to self: finish off the rebuild, write readme and re-release)

 

It could probably be used as a starting point

If anyone wants to model it, I have some reference material.

An "Exploding Cigar" would be nice.

I wouldn't complain about the horse power.

Two prototypes of the Skyshark were built. Great idea for a logical follow-on to the Skyraider. Not a success as turboprops of that era were underpowered and unreliable. Not enough improvement over the in-service AD to warrant the investment. One was / is at the Planes of Fame Chino museum.
