Bronco over Di-An
OV-10 Bronco print.
$43.00
The North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco is a rugged, twin-turboprop light attack and observation aircraft specifically designed for counter-insurgency (COIN) operations. First taking flight in 1965, it is instantly recognizable by its twin-boom design, high horizontal stabilizer, and a "greenhouse" canopy that offers the two-man crew exceptional visibility. Australia was a strong US ally during the South-east Asian conflict. In addition to regular Australian forces, RAAF exchange pilots flew with the USAF. A red kangaroo was often stenciled on the aircraft’s nose.
Beyond its distinctive look, the Bronco was engineered for extreme versatility: it could take off from short, unimproved clearings, operate from aircraft carriers without a catapult, and even carry up to five paratroopers or two medical litters in its rear cargo bay. Throughout its service, most notably during the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm, it excelled as a forward air control (FAC) platform, loitering over battlefields for hours to mark targets and provide close air support with its internal machine guns and external rocket pods.

All prints are created on demand and signed digitally. On demand printing alloys each print to have individual messages, birthday greetings or callsigns to be added to the print. This produces a unique print. Messages are in the same font as other text in the print and of the appropriate size for that print. If you have nothing to say, that's OK... you don't even need to enter your name, rank or SN.
The Standard Stock photo paper is an outstanding value, while the Fine Art paper adds texture and depth to the work. All prints are sold unframed but sized to fit readily available poster frames. Of course the print can be custom framed locally to your specs. Prints are mounted on a quality mat board and shipped flat... and the shipping is included in the price.
All prints are created from my original paintings done in oil on canvas. I have digitally cleaned the images of lint and flaws and made adjustments as needed for reproduction. No artificial intelligence is used. Terry Lundby, Steelfeather Art
