About the Actual Aircraft

This Hobby Master A-4 Skyhawk is a 1/72 scale diecast model with the option to display the model on a stand that comes with the model. Landing gear can be displayed in the up or down position. Optional armament is provided.
Argentina was the first country outside of the US who flew the A-4 Skyhawk. This particular Hobby Master model is modeled after the A flight of 2 A-4Ps, call sign Zeus flown by Ensign Jorge �Pampa� Barrionuevo and First Lieutenant Mariano �Cobra� Velasco flying this particular aircraft, the C-207. On Velasco�s final run on the HMS Coventry he dropped three 1000 lb. bombs with all 3 hitting the ship. The bombs penetrated deep inside the ship, and exploded with a tremendous force. C-207 wore the silhouettes of 2 ships, sinking HMS Coventry and damaging HMS Brilliant.
