OV-10A Bronco Combat Workhorse Toddler T-Shirt

The OV-10A Bronco, a rugged, versatile aircraft developed by North American Rockwell in the 1960s, was designed for counter-insurgency (COIN) combat, light attack, and forward air control (FAC) duties. With its first flight in 1965, the Bronco was a key player in the Vietnam War, providing close air support, reconnaissance, and target marking for heavier aircraft. Its twin-turboprop design, sponson-mounted landing gear, and a fuselage that could carry up to three passengers or stretchers, made it uniquely adaptable. The OV-10A's ability to take off from short, unprepared runways allowed it to operate close to the front lines. Serving not just the Air Force but also the Marine Corps and foreign militaries, the Bronco's legacy includes roles in drug interdiction and as a test platform for advanced technologies. Its distinctive silhouette and battlefield versatility have made it a beloved aircraft among aviators and historians alike.
