That poor thing will never be able to take off with all that hardware dangling off it 🙂

Guss, actually it did once take off with 24 Mk 81's on it,,,,and it was the earlier version with a lower powered engine, and racks heavier than MERs are. (It was used to demonstrate the idea of multiple bombs invented by a Marine and demo'd to the USN and USMC, including fairly accurate CEPs for the time period)

Great info Rex. Thanks. 24 Mk 81's? wow. That's an idea for next A-4 skyhawk project 😄

oops,,,,,,that should be 18, sorry. I meant that all three pylons on the early Skyhawk were full. They were the Electric Fuzed (sharp nose) Mk 81s with the early standard Conical Fins. The racks were made by welding A-1 Skyraider bomb racks onto long rails. (compared to MBRs and MERs, those racks were *uglyyyy* )

no problem. so in a way my payload will be something like they had. but with additional LAU rokets... If anyone is wandering why this payload - I wanted the exact payload which is shown on the boxart (later I have found that the center MER do not have Mk 81s but bigger version - at least it seems like it).

Looking great so far! Very nice build log, and I like the payload, it looks massive! 👍

And the model is finished. Thank you all for your kind words. I hope you enjoyed the build. The second part of the "The Sound of Silence" will be starting probably later this year. Right now it's time for another job.
