As we all know, the original was based on the Tomcat, which is my all-time favorite combat aircraft. Having a two seater is more true to the original Skystriker, as well as the F-14, I totally get that.
Having said that, I always felt that the Tomcat's need for a two man crew was it's one true weakness. The two man crew was required because of the Tomcat's immense workload. However, modern advances in flight control, navigation, and weapons targeting, have eliminated the need for a two man flight crew. I dont want an exact replica of the original, I want a Skystriker that captures the feel and essence of the original, while still representing today's modern combat aircraft. I think the new one seat design does this fairly well. If Hasbro sends us a two seater down the line, I'll buy one, like I buy just about everything else, but it's not on my wishlist. I would love to see a nightboomer though, and even a sky patrol metallic version!

I hope they turn it into a 2 seater......that would increase sells on the Sky Striker. I know I'd buy more if they fix it.

How easy would it be to remove the dual seat cockpit from the 1983 Skystriker and install it into this version?
Is there a 3rd party dual seat cockpit available? |
