OV-10D Bronco Light Attack Aircraft 2 Stainless Steel Tumbler

The OV-10D Bronco, a rugged, twin-turboprop light attack and observation aircraft, stands as a testament to versatility and efficiency. Developed by North American Rockwell in the 1960s, it was designed to meet the demanding requirements of counter-insurgency (COIN) combat. The OV-10D variant, an advanced version with improved night attack capabilities and greater range, served with distinction across the Navy, Marine Corps, and U.S. Coast Guard. Its operational tenure spans several decades, seeing action in conflicts such as the Vietnam War and Desert Storm. The Bronco's unique features include a rear cargo compartment, sponsons for weapons, and short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities. It earned accolades for its forward air control, light attack roles, and reconnaissance missions. The OV-10D's legacy is marked by its adaptability, having been used in everything from combat operations to firefighting missions.
