Historical Information

The North American AJ-1 Savage was a heavy carrier-based bomber used by the United States Navy (USN) in the early stages of the Cold War, from the late 1940s to the early 1960s. It was among the pioneering aircraft of its type, capable of carrying nuclear weapons from aircraft carriers. The AJ-1 Savage participated in the early years of post-WWII operational service and was used, among other tasks, during the Korean War (1950-1953) both as a bomber and as a reconnaissance aircraft.
