Secrets of the A-1 Skyraider: Vietnam's Unbelievable Hero REVEALED

The Douglas A-1 Skyraider (formerly known as AD Skyraider) is an American single-seat attack aircraft in service from 1946 to the early 1980s. The Skyraider had a remarkably long and successful career. Designed by Ed Heinemann of Douglas Aircraft, prototypes were ordered on 6 July 1944 as the XBT2D-1. Heinemann's design approach was uncomplicated; he said he simply took the most powerful engine available and designed the aircraft around it. In the skies over Korea, the “Able Dog” or “Spad,” as the Skyraider was called, earned its stellar reputation as one of the finest attack aircraft ever built. Its missions were varied, from attacking heavily defended industrial targets like power plants and bridges, to knocking out the Hwachon Dam with aerial torpedoes, to earning the affection of many a grunt with its close air support capabilities. 🚀 Military Aircrafts Video Playlist!
