– FS2002/FS2004 Convair XF2Y-1 Sea Dart

FS2002/FS2004 Convair XF2Y-1 Sea Dart. A hydro plane jet fighter that the U.S. Navy and the Convair Company made for trial purposes. The airframe was a delta no tail form, and J34 jet engine powered. It had a hard time preventing the inhalation of water. Though one or two hydro skis were installed under the nose, and it dealt with this, the defect of the vibration and the stability in the water was not able to be canceled. Development was broken off as there were problems in the operation side too. By Kazunori Ito. 1,5 Mb
