  • @CuttinEJ
    @CuttinEJ Před 4 lety +46

    Thought you might be interested to know a couple of things about the A4. I worked on A4E/F/M, TA4F/J & OA4M for many years in the Marine Corps. The B served aboard carriers, but not for very long. The it was too hard on the main landing gear strut attachment points. There was a Super M that was beefed up for carrier operations, but not many and only used for carrier quals. A4 roll rate was 720 degrees/second. Though it was designed as a ground pounder, it was also a very capable fighter. I served with a lot of Vietnam era A4 pilots. More than a few had fought dogfights with MiGs and won. One of my COs (LtCol Abajon) got jumped by 2 on the way in on a ground attack mission. He killed 1 and badly damaged the other with bombs and rockets on. He completed the ground attack run successfully and went to the aid of another sortie on his way home and killed another one. Skyhawk is the only American aircraft that ever came in under budget, over performed it's mission specs and served decades past it's projected life. It was my honor to launch the last A4 produced when it came to my squadron (VMA 311) on its farewell tour, and to launch the last A4 in my last squadron before retiring to send it on its last flight to the bone yard. I'd give my left nut to own an A4.

    A-4 Skyhawk flew from decks of the Essex-class, Midway-class, Forrestal-class, Kitty Hawk-class, Enterprise-class, and I believe it operated, briefly, off Nimitz-class Carriers. So the only Carriers it didn't operate off... Were the small Carriers for Helicopters and VTOLs. But that's only the US Navy.
    Brazil, Argentina, Australia, and due to inter-operational capabilities, likely also flew off the decks of British, Canadian, and French Carriers as well. Just don't quote me on the British-operated, Canadian, and French Carriers. But if there were nations that landed on Flight Decks at Sea, and they had the A-4, they likely did some Carrier landings.

    My great-uncle/godfather flew A-4s in Vietnam, off of the USS Oriskany (CV-34), as CAG (commander air group) I believe. Very quick, very agile, but geez is the cockpit tiny. I once looked inside one and couldn't for the life of me imagine how anyone could squeeze themselves inside. The Navy Blue Angels flew the A-4 when I was a kid (before they switched to the F-18), and I can tell you their aerobatics were far more impressive back then.

    Actually these mad lads were some of the last jets to still fly off the Essex class, we were lucky enough to get a Skyhawk that had flown off the Essex class carrier Bom Homme Richard in for our local air show, where I helped with ground ops, anyways she was with the navy heritage flight so we got to see her fly formation with an ea-18g growler which was awesome

    I didn't know the Scooter was even in this game. It looks like they nailed the model pretty well visually, but for two things: First, on the ground, it will always sit nose-high. The nose strut is pressurized and softly sprung. It would be too long for its own wheel well, except that there's a rod that compresses and shortens it as it retracts. The mains are relatively short and, since they bear the majority of the weight, tend to be compressed when at rest. Second, the leading edge slats are not mechanically actuated; they deploy due to aerodynamic pressure at high angles of attack. When the aircraft is at rest on the ground, the slats roll forward on their curved bearing rails due to gravity. Always. Other than that, it looks well represented here. It was a simple, sturdy aircraft; easy to work on and fun to fly. The refueling probe was a bit of an issue: if fuel sprayed out at connect/disconnect, it could snuff the engine. We lost one that way; it wet the igniters and wouldn't restart. Smokin' hole.

    The A-4s not only served on /Kitty Hawk/ class carriers (Constellation, Kitty Hawk etc.), but they also served on upgraded Essex class (Yorktown, Oriskany, Essex, etc) carrier that were converted to have an angled flight deck and redesignated as attack carriers (CVA)

    Nice, the A 4 ist on of the iconic planes that i waited for since the old 1947 (?) technology barrier for war thunder fell. Now i am waiting to the F 105 Thunderchief ;)
    and @PhlyDaily (just to aswer your question from the start) the Supercarriers at Vietnam were of the Forrestal-class, Kitty Hawk-class and the single ship Kennedy, and Enterprise classes. Nimitz was to late for Vietnam. Some of the Old WW2 Essex class and all Midway class Carriers served there too. The A 4 was so small and light that she could be used on all of them.

    The American Skyhawk has operated off of the Enterprise, Nimitz, Forrestal, Kittyhawk, Kennedy, Essex and Midway class aircraft carriers. There’s no one class it was especially attached to, although it’s use on the Nimitz was short and generally involved use as trainers or for CQs when still in service with the Marines

    My 9th grade science teacher flew the Skyhawk during Vietnam.
    He said he didn't fully grasp hiw much danger he was in until a few years after the war when he had a kid.
    According to him it felt like a game and he had the time of his life, he added that he never lost a wing man or friend and he feels guilty for his perspective of the war.
    He's probably retired now, I graduated in 2013, he has to be in his mid 70s by now.
