AD-5 Skyraider

[charlielima 328]

I put together an AD-5 Skyraider using the splendid Razbam A-1E and Pappychksix skins. Of course I have no intention of selling it. I'm still trying to hash out loading and hanger screens. I'm also still trying to figure out what to do with it because I think it was only used by USN and USMC from 1953 to 1960. Of course I used a service life up to 1970 so I can fly it in WOV. Perhaps all the Marine Corps squadrons and MAWs at Da Nang could use a couple each for gedunk runs and putting some ordinance on charlie in some tight terrain.

A-4 Skyhawk centerline tanks will fit!

[charlielima 328]

Just so. TANK300_A4_fuselage. Its white tho. I also tried TANK300_AD_Blue, has 3 fins and AD-TANK doesn't center on the pylon.

have you tried cloning the centerline station, and making it an ONLY fueltank station and adjusting the mounting positions???

StationGroupID=6

StationType=EXTERNAL

It might be less painfull to paint A-4 tanks midnight blue then fine tuning the AD tanks.
