Super Sabre vs Super Etendard
20 years are seperating between the two but as the super sabre was used so well as an artillery bomber in South Vietnam the Etendard got his fame in the Falkland war 15 years later than 1967 and Vietnam war. The big difference among the two lies in the concept .The Etendard because of a much more modern design have the same performance as the sabre without the need for afterburner. So it has a better range and better load carry capacity with much more modern weapons and modern weapon delivery system for more precise bombing .
Even without the exocet the Supet Etendard is way better as an attack plane than the super saber becaue it is a much more modern design and was designed from the outset for it's mission and was not adapted as in the super sabre case.
