NB the bit "last flew in 1992"!!
However $675K for a Sea Fury, at today's exchange rate............ Now when did I last buy a lottery ticket? That's mine if I win the jackpot!!
But back to topic, didn't the A20 Havoc used to come armed with 4 x 20 mm cannon and 8 0.5" machine guns? That would lay down a bit of supressing fire on a CAS mission. Comes with a bomb bay and underwing hardpoints as well!!
