Fantastic aircraft but was a helluva shock to the system when first introduced.  |
Maybe so but it acquitted itself well in the Falklands dispute / war. It has stood the test of time as well. It's an iconic aircraft and it's longevity speaks well of it's designers. Easily upgradable as well.
Very difficult I would imagine not being able to see and putting the nose on the cart. Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing
