CLASSIC: United States Marines
A-6E Intruder
USMC VMFA(AW)-533 Hawks
Christmas Ornament
1/100th Scale - RARE!
This is a replica of the Grumman A-6E Intruder
Possessing one of the most sophisticated avionics suites and the ability to fly extremely well at slower speeds, the A-6 Intruder carried out precise bombing missions no other aircraft could during the Vietnam War. Introduced to service in February 1963, the US born Intruder was a two-seat all-weather attack aircraft that reached a maximum speed of 684 mph and could carry up to 18,000 pounds, including nuclear weapons, conventional and guided bombs, and drop tanks.
The A-6 was designed to meet a US Navy / Marines requirement for an all-weather carrier-based attack/strike aircraft, the A-6 Intruder was first flown on April 19th, 1960. The A-6 was equipped with a CRT that allowed for low-level flight in all weather conditions, a characteristic that helped it remain the US Navy and US Marine Corps' principal night and all-weather attack aircraft through the 1990s. With its large, blunt nose and lean tail, the A-6 was given a variety of unflattering nicknames, including "Double Ugly" and the "Drumstick." The A-6 served in Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, Somalia and Bosnia and was ultimately replaced by the F-14 Tomcat.
This model is of an actual Grumman A-6E Intruder for the United States Marines - VMFA(AW)-533 Hawks. What a great piece of Modern War History!

WARNING! Beware of others selling similar ornaments - who's pictures are taken without the ornament actually hanging! *Each of my custom ornaments is made with acute attention to detail, and each is designed to hang as horizontal as possible for the best display on your tree! - I also use custom ordered parts that are designed to blend in, and not detract from the ornament itself! (some use large bulky eye screws that are way to big for these ornaments.) **I also have multiple HD pictures from ALL angles, don't take a chance for any surprises with just a single (many times blurry / out of focus) picture!
This ornament will come complete with a Deluxe ornament hanger similar to the one pictured!
