Despite its traditional piston engine, the Skyraider had an exceptionally long career in a time when jets were becoming widespread.
It made its first flight in 1945 and was not decommissioned until 1975.
She took part in several conflicts and proved her worth in Korea and Vietnam.
Distinguished by low-speed maneuverability, it could carry an impressive payload of over 3500 kg.
It was perfect for ground combat operations and was equipped with robust armor to minimize damage from the enemy.
The Skyraider A-1H was able to reach a top speed of 322 miles per hour and load an impressive variety of weapons thanks to its powerful 2,700 horsepower radial engine.
In addition, it was equipped with four 20 mm calibers.
