I have a certified welding business and we cater to the aviation industry. We were called out to do a job at a local place that does a Top Gun type school for foreign pilots. This particular A4 was purchased from the Israeli Air Force. I asked to see any applicable repair data and manuals. Everything the had was in hebrew.

Cool plane and I appreciate them more now than I once did. The one time I saw one close up at an airshow, in the late '80s, I didn't even realize what it was at first––a later(?) version, it had the humpback on it, which threw me for a loop.
