Re: Vought (Chance Vought, LTV)

Great work! I think we also have the picture of the V-343, V-356, V-362, V-382, V-404 and V-434 on the forum.

Also you seem to have omitted the X-100 (FAX) and the V-1000.

T-22: Vought's entry in the Assault Breaker program. Based on the Lance missile but incorporating advances such as a low CEP ring-laser gyro navigation system and solid fuel propulsion. The T-22 was apparently directly derived from Vought's LANCE II and ILANCE / I LANCE proposals for the preceding U.S Army Corps Support Weapons System program. As with those designs the T-22 utilised a version of the 'certified round' concept. The T-22 is sometimes incorrectly referred to as the T-22 Lance II.

Much appreciated.
I see that the thread is not exactly recent, however, here and there, i find quotation of "visual reference" and "pictures", while I see only text.
Also the link to http://celticowboy.com/V-LIST.html is dead.
Thank you a lot!

I linked the project number to the relevant topic and added a thumbnail picture from the topic, but these all broke when the thumbnails got regenerated a while ago.

Seems the IJN "AXV" is actually the Vought V-143, the final iteration (via the V-141) of Northrop's 3-A single-seat fighter design

I'm going to redo this post as the new Xenforo software means linked images should not break when topics are merged etc.

Was looking for J79 variants of Crusader in the late 50's, long before V-1000 and similar to the "final" Skylancer and Super Tiger. Looks like Vought never thought about it, electing to leap from J57 to J75 Crusader III instead. Shame.

And then I stumbled on V-474... Crusader for LEBANON. I mean, Lebanon. Same year the French Navy procured Crusaders, too. Could have made 1983 even more interesting.
