Hello, Gustaf Karjala , I'm felix and I'll be looking at this app today~

 

[Felix Aquila]

Is there a link that can go along with this, to reference the source of the image you have used?

Primary Source: WW2 Vought SB2U Vindicator (also known as V-156-F)

Otherwise your sizes look good
Technical specs look fine
Armament doesn't seem too over the top
Strengths and Weaknesses look great

Yet another really straight forward and concise app~

 

[Gustaf Karjala]

Felix Aquila , I added the link for the reference, which is the same one as the image source (WW2 Vought SB2U Vindicator) and another to the Wikipedia article ((also known as V-156-F)).

Hoping it's okay for you.

Regards

I am assuming, correct me if I am wrong, you mean 10.36m?, and 12.8, 3.12m?

• Length: 10,36m
• Width: 12,8m
• Height: 3,12m

 

[Gustaf Karjala]

Matthew Locke you're right. I'm using the comma as an habit we have in France. I'll correct that in the sub.
