Trumpeter Aircraft 1/32 A1D AD4 Skyraider USN Aircraft Kit
The Douglas A-1 Skyraider was designed during WWII as the new generation torpedo/bomber. Following the war, plans were changed with the Navy adopting the Skyraider as a new all-around strike aircraft. The AD-4 was the largest production variant of the family with a new 2700 horsepower R-3350-26WA engine, strengthened windshield to protect against ground fire, two extra guns, an autopilot and a new arresting hook. The AD-4 was renamed as the A-1D with the new nomenclature of the US Navy in 1962.
