Aiman, I have the old Profile on the SVAs. There is one picture of an SVA5
which has machine guns and 3 bomb clips on the port side of the fuselage,
but you can't see what the serial number is.
The profile describes the VSA as fulfilling the requirement for a "fast long
range scout and light bomber relying on speed and its own armament for
protection"
In the absence of any proof to the contrary I would expect at least the guns
to be fitted
