Description
The most important addition to the airframe, was the ability for it to fold its wings. This was a massive headache to implement, but it was necessary as space on a carrier is a luxury. The exposed parts of the wing were also double coated in zinc chromate, to stop splashes of seawater from harassing the aluminium on the airframeRelated content
