Kiwi Aircraft Images : A-4K Skyhawk McDonnell Douglas (T)A-4K Skyhawk The A-4 Skyhawk, known variously as the 'Scooter' or 'Heinemann's hot rod' was designed by Ed Heinemann for the Douglas Corporation to a USN specification. A light weight fighter-bomber, it incorporated a number of nifty features (such as the short wingspan and rearward lowering undercarriage) to save on heavy extras such as wingfolds and other systems. The XA4D-1 prototype (BuNo137812) took to the air in June 1954, and the aircraft entered US service in 1956. The aircraft has subsequently undergone numerous developments in more than 15 models (both single and two-seaters), and served with a wide range of air forces. Nearly 2,960 aircraft had been built when production ended in 1979, many of these having undergone refurbishment or conversion to new models.
