The Waco CG-4A glider, also known as the 'Hadrian' in British service, played a pivotal role in World War II, serving as the workhorse of the US Army Air Forces' glider program. Manufactured by the Waco Aircraft Company, this glider was designed to transport troops, weapons, and equipment silently behind enemy lines, offering a surprise element that was crucial in several operations. With over 13,900 units produced, the CG-4A was the most widely used American troop/cargo military glider. It saw action in major operations such as D-Day and Market Garden, showcasing its versatility and reliability. The CG-4A could carry 13 troops or a combination of vehicles and artillery, making it an essential asset in the Allied war effort. Its legacy is not just in its numbers but in the strategic advantage it provided, making it a fascinating piece of aviation and military history.
