'BomberH' is this true (cannot find a free A-7 NATOPS PDF) so may be suspect:
"Anti‐Skid system A-7 Corsair II
The wheel brakes are equipped with an electrically controlled anti‐skid system. Use of anti‐skid minimizes tire‐skid damage, and stopping distances are reduced under all runway surface conditions."
I'll guess this is how you avoided tyre damage down the brake locked almost catapult? Probably the T-45C does not have anti-skid I'll guess hence dire warnings about this.
T-45C NATOPS has extensive info about the anti-skid system in use but too complicated for me - a non-user.
The Sea Venom had an excellent Girling Anti-Skid brake system. It does warn about incorrectly positioned toes/feet on the rudder pedal brakes during catapulting - there be dragons.
