The actual retail box art is that of an A-3D. If the A-3D was anything like the later EA-3B version, there could have been any number of configurations of the aircraft. I am looking forward to the build, but still would like someone to produce a new EA-3B version of the aircraft.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2943383421550155293.post-9818158693164734252013-05-29T08:23:40.867-07:002013-05-29T08:23:40.867-07:00The original box art appears to show the EA-3B (El...The original box art appears to show the EA-3B (Electronic Warfare Version). That is the reason for the antennas. This is a hybrid configuration with errors and is not a true replica of the bomber. I spent 3 years (1963 - 1966) flying as an ECM operator in the EA-3B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
