A-1 Skyraider Propeller and Nose Detail, Tennessee Air Museum, June 2014

A close-up view of the propeller and radial engine of a Douglas A-1 Skyraider on display at the Tennessee Air Museum. The Skyraider's rugged Wright R-3350 engine and heavy ordnance-carrying capacity made it one of the most effective attack aircraft of the Vietnam War, valued for its ability to loiter over the battlefield and deliver sustained firepower.
