A-7 Corsair II
In combat over SEA, the Corsair II compiled a remarkable record of survivability and operational readiness. Its operational capabilities, particularly its great range and endurance on only its internal fuel, made it a superior performer that won it the praise and affection of everyone who was connected with it. However it did not become the headline grabber that the F-4s did when fighting the MiGs, or that the F-105s did in their extended bombing compaigns over North Vietnam. The A-7 did not become operational until later in the war, particularly with the USAF, so its time in combat was less than that of the F-105, and less glamorous than that of the MiG fighting F-4. But in the time it did serve, the A-7 did a dirty, thankless job extremely well. It operated in the worst weather and against the most formidable air defenses ever assembled, and came through it with a survivability record that is nothing short of phenomenal.
