A.V.A.C. (Air Viper, Advanced Class) pilots are selected from the Air Viper ranks. Those who demonstrate exceptional piloting and navigational skills are chosen to receive advanced training to fly cutting-edge Cobra fighter jet with minimal pilot instrumentation to increase speed and maneuverability. One A.V.A.C. pilot flies a Cobra Scythe prototype when Cobra forces invade a city, and is fired upon by Steeler, who’s defending the city in the G.I. Joe Chimera Tank!

It's real purty.
Davestro says
I kind of didn't like the fact that Cobra got its hands on such an iconic jet from the Joes. I'm beginning to like this plane more and more. The paint apps are absolutely stunning.
I see many of Cobra's forces as former U.S. military, maybe like black ops contractors in some sort of grey area of PMCs. Having them fly a modified F-14 makes perfect sense.
Cobra Fox says
No difference to G.I. Joe's Tiger Rat (Tiger Force's version of Cobra's Rattler).
Ash Talon says
I think it looks nice, but I'm not into Joes and Cobras swapping vehicles. I didn't like it as a kid, and I don't like it now.
Mr Hebime says
For me the real selling point of this set is Grunt, Steeler and the Cobra Scythe. I just love different decos/color schemes for Skystrikers and look forward to picking up this one.
Loose Cannon says
Yeah it's Grunt I want the most, but the Alley-Viper Officer is growing on me, and now so is this crappy AVAC Pilot.
SLY SIXR says
The AVAC head looks awesome on that Crimson guard body.

I asked a buddy to try and get me a set from SDCC. If it's not doable no tears will be shed. I actually like the retail version better. Though, I really like the box art.
Laser Viper says
I know this is a repaint but damn! this looks good as a Cobra vehicle!! Thumbs up!!
Box art kicks ass!!!
