摘要

描述

A North American AJ-2 Savage (BuNo 130418, civil registration N68667) in flight. It was used as a testbed for the AVCO Lycoming YF102-LD-100 turbofan engine used on the Northrop YA-9. The jet engine was mounted on specially-built truss assembly which could be retracted hydraulically into the bomb bay.
This aircraft was accepted by the U.S. Navy on 6 February 1953, and entered squadron service with Composite Squadron VC-7 at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland (USA). Between 1955 and 1960, the aircraft was in service with VC-6, VAH-6, and VAH-16, flying from NAS Atsugi, Japan, NAS Barbers Point, Hawaii, and NAS North Island, California, and completing deployments in the carriers USS Yorktown (CVA-10) and USS Bennington (CVA-20). Stricken in February 1960, the aircraft accumulated a total of 1,630 hours while in U.S. Navy service.

Subsequently purchased for service as a fire fighter, the it performed this duty until 1971, at which time AVCO Lycoming bought the aircraft from a fire fighting operator in Madras, Oregon, for use as flight test bed for the company's engine designs. The aircraft ceased flight operations in 1975 and was placed in storage. For much of the ensuing decade Naval Aviation Museum Director Captain Grover Walker negotiated with the company for acquisition of the aircraft for the museum collection. On 15 May 1985, it was flight delivered to NAS Pensacola, Florida (USA).[1]
