Please, does anybody know if there are too much differences between both versions, E and P of Vought A-7 Corsair II? At least in the external appearance?
I would be grateful for the information.
I have an E, and intend to build a P version.
Thanx

Hey Ramao, the A-7P's are a re-built A-7A for the Portugal Air Force, 50 converted including 6 two seat trainers. The "P" ( for Portugal ) version is a essentially a bettered configuraltion of the "A" version with modern avionics. As for external fuselage, yes same aircraft just updated electronics and engine. Here are two links that may help. Good luck with your jet and i'd like to see when finnished. The A-7's are one of my favorite jets.

Thank you Joe, your info were very useful, mainly the link to Hyperscale site.
It is one of my favorite jets too. I like its aggressive appearance when is totally loaded of bombs.
I'll try to do the plane commemorative to the 64.000 hours of flight, for the campaign "Coalizão Luso-Brasileira" in the Portuguese Forum.
