The Grumman A-6 Intruder was designed as the replacement of the A-1 Skyraider.It's the first all-weather attack aircraft of the US Navy. The aircraft was called as the A2F before 1962 and got the new name, the A-6 Intruder, in service.The outstanding all-weather capability soon made the A-6 the main strike force of the Navy and Marines and devoted into the Vietnam War.
The A-6A were equipped with the DIANE system, which was the most advanced navigation/targeting system at that time. But the problems of reliability were solved after few years. There were 480 A-6As built and 47 of them were upgraded to another type.
