Clearly an A-4F/G with the 9,300lb J52 P8 engine - when carrying own weight in external stores - needed some extra oomph in that condition. Otherwise - no problemo amigo (as indicated perhaps above when clean - or near so). How they got by with a little help from JATO. http://www.faa.gov/aircraft/air_cert...archReport.pdf (55Mb)
