It just ain't right!

Thinking of all the sleek WWII fighter planes that they could of put into production, this just plain ugly, almost like an IL2?

"The Man from Del Monte.....He say GET SOME!!!!" LMAO

Holy cow, I'd hate to be the guy messing with that farmer lol. Seriously though, would work out a lot more cost effective to convert these things instead of using jets, choppers new hardware in the south American drugs war. This thing could seriously spoil the Escobars of this worlds day hehehe.

I can see it now. Independence Day 2 with Randy Quaid as the reborn crop duster pilot. This time I bring my own plane.!!!!

That plane isn't that bad looking, not great, but not bad. As long as it gets the job done, right?
I have seen much more homely planes.

So that must have something to do with the cross-border incursions on the USA southern border... way-to-go..
This is a funny quote

"They needed planes with armored engines and cockpits, and with self-sealing fuel tanks for spraying operations in Latin America," Jackson said.

the nice thing about those turbo prop engines is that they're very quiet, and can sneak up on you if you're 'asleep'. Probably very effective in the area of operations


I reckon this was meant to 'hurt' someone...

So what you need is a silent chopper with thermal imaging equipment, and a laser targeter. and this plane, also with a laser sensitive/thermal imager, loitering around.

At nighttime, the chopper goes looking for the 'trouble makers', illuminates them with the invisible laser, and the duster glides in silently from attack height, unleashing its payload, then they're both outa there.... One up for the good guys

Maybe it's just me, but I think it looks cool.
