Default Consistent CAP over a fleet from a land base

Is this the one you are refering to?

Precisely. Thanks for sharing it.

If the A-7 was sometimes referred to as the "Thalidomide Crusader," I wonder what name the troops would have given the light attack "A-6" (Model G-12) had it entered service?

"One-Eyed Ugly?"

(I was told this by a very earnest young woman in Berkeley the other day. The look on her face when I asked why she was risking life and limb by angering a soulless killer was worth the lecture.)

Somewhat off-topic, but there was proposed at one time a single-seat variant of the A-6. IIRC, this one lost out early on to the A-7. There is a concept illustration of it somewhere on the web, but I no longer have the URL.

If you thought the A-6 looked slightly weird, this critter looked doubly so.
