Yes the Sea Dart does qualify as a flying boat in my opinion as it did float upon water (aka boat), but it was never a fighter plane. However it was the first and only supersonic flying boat achieving speeds in excess of mach 1 allbiet in a shallow dive.

Although the Sea Dart was to be armed it never was due to wieght restrictions and the project was cancelled before it could, The SR.A1 was however armed with 20mm Hispano Cannon and underwent firing trials and therefore qualifies as the only flying boat/fighter plane.

One for the purists I think .

Regards,

John.

Ok, in that case, you have the truth, and I´m wrong… the Sea Dart don´t have any weapon…

The Saunders Roe SR.A/1 was the worlds only jet powered flying boat designed as a fighter plane, armed with Hispano cannons and the capability to use 2 x 1000lb bombs or rocket pods.

It´s know that F-16C block 52 and F-16A MLU (from Holland) must replace both Mirage V and Pantera and A-37.

The next will be the F-5 fleet, but today it´s a good plane specially with Pythoon 4 & 5 and new Derby´s.
