Ling-Temco-Vought A-7 Corsair II won the 1963 competition for a new
attack aircraft. The A-7 design was based on the F-8 Crusader but with
many differences. Each individual aircraft history starts with the Contract
Manufacturers Number, followed by the Bureau Number, Navy acceptance
date, flight records, and where available, crash notes and date
sent to Davis-Monthan AFB for storage.
The 1,200 aircraft photographs
capture the A-7 at literally every phase of its operation: starting with
engineering drawings, productio, all but two of the commands that
flew the aircraft, storage, salvage, plus accidents and crashes.
The 136 patches represent the aircraft, air wings, commands, and squadrons.
Its use by the Hellenic Air Force HAF (Greece), Portuguese Air Force,
and Royal Thai Navy Division RTND are also represented.
