Douglas AD Skyraider - The Able Dog 2 Flexfit Hat

The Douglas AD Skyraider, a powerhouse of the skies, served with distinction across the Navy, Marine Corps, and U.S. Coast Guard. This prop-driven attack aircraft, operational from the late 1940s through the 1970s, was a true workhorse of the post-World War II era. With its robust design, the Skyraider was capable of carrying a vast array of armaments, making it a formidable ground-attack aircraft. It saw extensive action in the Korean War and the Vietnam War, providing close air support, combat search and rescue, and electronic countermeasures. Nicknamed 'Able Dog' for its designation and 'Spad' for its anachronistic appearance amidst jet aircraft, the Skyraider was beloved by its pilots for its durability and versatility. Its legacy is marked by its significant contributions to aerial warfare and its role in shaping close air support tactics.
