The A-1H Skyraider (also known as the Douglas Skyraider) is an American carrier-based attack aircraft primarily used by the US Navy and US Air Force in the post-World War II era, as well as during the Korean and Vietnam wars. It gained particular renown during the Vietnam conflict in the 1960s and 70s, where it carried out attack and close air support missions. The Skyraider was known for its durability and its ability to carry a substantial bomb load. Its tailwheel played a key role during carrier operations and in challenging field conditions.
