Super Sabre vs Vautour

At first glance it seem like there is no link between the two.
But the reality showed that they performed the same role.
If we compare the two on attack plane basis we have -
Super Sabre - 1 J57 engine of 4.7 and 7.2 ton thrust with afterburner which give us max speed of 550 knots when loaded with external bombs rocket's etc ...
Max load of 2.5 ton and short range .
The Vautour has two Atar 101E engines with 3.5 ton each and no afterburner. The Vautuor can carry 4.5 ton load and had an internal bomb bay with sliding doors that can carry internally 2.5 ton as well Without the drag of carrying them under the wings so it can reach 595 knots in this configuration and still has more internal fuel than the Super Saber.
Also the 4 X30 mm guns of the Vautour are having much stronger fire power than the Super Sabre.
The Vautour can carry up to 204 rockets !!!
Over all the autour is a clear winner here as an attack plane.
Even as interceptor the Vautour was credited with Iraqi Hawker Hunter while the Super Sabre with a probable mig-17.
The Vautour is colored with six day war scheme and in 1:48 scale
and colored and redesigned by Yoav Hozmi .
