  • Nice toy !!!

  • @rocktruggy03

    Are they used as Attack Aircaft?? Yeah I know they still use fixed wing caft but mostly as transporters.

  • @Skippy585

    Ov denotes Observation. They were used as forward observer and in reconisence roles. Some countries use them as light attack aircraft as well. I'm sure uncle Sam slung a few rocket pods on them from time to time.

    There was a push from Boeing a few years back to produce the OV-10X Light Attack Aircraft for deployment to Afghanistan in the COIN/FAC role. I'm fairly certain that idea did not come to fruition.

  • @Skippy585

    Close but not correct. The army still flies fixed wing. The C-23 Sherpa as well as Beech King Airs and Cessna Citations.

  • @LeftFrontSeat

    That’s pretty cool. The U.S Army had an aircraft like this decades ago (used back in Vietnam) and I think this was there last attack fixed wing aircraft which now the use rotary wing attach craft like the AH-64 Apache.

    Don't think this is as fast as lets say a P-51 Mustang, but it's still pretty unique

  • Actually, I never could get that plane to do a Zurabatic Cartwheel; it would do something spastic resembling a lumshevak. What I did do (when I was the target for the Red Eye missile school) (to get the plane turned around for another strafing run)…do a shallow pull off, fly away for about 5-10 sec, pull it straight up, as the airspeed passes through about 50 smothery apply full rudder and full opposite aileron. It does a very nice hammerhead…you’re lined up for another strafing run

  • @LeftFrontSeat I came to visit you and caught you enjoying yourself, Allan. (*_*) I bet you'd do that maneuver - NO PROBLEMO!

  • One of the missions that VMO-2 did when I was with them, was to provide a target for the “Red Eye” anti-aircraft missile school at 29 Palms (namely the airplane)…to say that that got crazy is an understatement!

  • @Skippy585 Wattdaya mean can it do a roll or a loop!? I flew the OV-10 with VMO-2…Google this Polish test pilot: “Janusz Żurakowski”. There is an acrobatic maniuver named after him; the "Zurabatic Cartwheel"…try one of those! Oh, if you do, you have to pull one of the engines into full reverse…IN FLIGHT (a prohibited maneuver).

  • Can you do a roll in a Bronco? Or even a loop.....
