Seeing the last couple of posts to this thread makes me want to find an A-7D kit in 1/72, modernize the airframe (GPS dome, F-16 style cheek hardpoints for sensor pods, maybe an afterburning engine nozzle), paint it up in FS 36118 (or FS 36170 if I want to be really fancy); and then hang two GBU-38s under one wing on a BRU-55/57, a rack of SDBs under the other; AIM-9X Sidewinders on the missile rails, and a SNIPER XR and maybe an AAQ-13 under the intakes...
As with most of my recent what-if ideas, I actually have everything except the airframe... and the paint, which proving a pain in the rear to get since my hobby shop is out of everything and paints appear to be the one thing that *isn't* cheaper online.
