The Douglas A-1J Skyraider is a variant of the Douglas A-1 Skyraider attack aircraft that was developed for the US Navy and US Marine Corps in the late 1940s and 1950s. Specifically adapted for the US Navy with modifications for carrier operations and improved avionics. The Douglas A-1J Skyraider is remembered for its ruggedness, versatility, and effectiveness in a variety of combat roles. Although its design was already obsolete compared to more modern jet aircraft by the time of the Vietnam War, its reliability and ability to carry a heavy load made it an important aircraft in the strike role.
