the AV-8B (says the manual) can manage 460 nm on a high-lo-high with 6 x Mk82s and two 300 gal tanks.
I imagine the computer model theoretically says it goes that far ...

But, my experience of flying AV-8B says otherwise. And therein lies the problem of measuring with a micrometer but only having an axe to cut with.

We'll just have to see how far it does go. It won't be that far off either way and I'd err on the lower side.

Best regards,
