J/A-109 Shade STOVL Light Strike Fighter
Newquay Armed Forces Collection
Newquay Weapons Pack

DESCRIPTION
The J/A-109 Shade is a light, Short Take off and Vertical Landing, or STOVL capable jet designed to operate from short runways as well as carrier operations. It served as a good fit between the A-32 and the J/A-107, offering more precise shots than the J/A-107 but faster than the A-32. The Vertical Take off and Landing features, or STOVL significantly reduced landing time, but also reduced range as a result.
