The first A-7D made its initial flight on April 5, 1968, and deliveries of production models began on Dececember 23, 1968. When A-7D production ended in 1976, 459 had been delivered to the USAF. In 1973, the USAF began assigning A-7Ds to the Air National Guard (ANG). The A-7D demonstrated its outstanding capability to attack ground targets while flown by the 354th Tactical Fighter Wing at Korat RTAFB, Thailand, during the closing months of the war in Southeast Asia. This version shows a repaint of a Corsair from the 3rd TFS based at Korat RTAFB during the Vietnam War. It includes textures in 1024 pixel format to enhance the detail on the aircraft.
