Yes it is. Quirky looking thing that saw service with 3 or 4 South American countries.

It can land on water? A argentinian skin landing on Gepard Rio de la Plata terrain...

In theory yes. But I've had a little try at 125kph and I exploded on the water. Eider have another but it got me down.

I added in certain planes some skids on proper positions so is possible to make belly landings If you do it slow and flat enough.
