Default A real Naval Aviation Question about A-4s


Don, Dave and everyone who responded. Thanks for your replies.

Don, yes there was an ASC that covered the A-4E Humps. And you're
right, it should contain the BuNos of the aircraft that recieved it.
But, then so should the IPB. Now to find the part that lists the
BuNos.

Dave, I have your reference, but it doesn't distinguish between those
with and those without the hump.

I've been trying off and one for about a year to find the numbers, and
BuNos, that recieved the humps. So far no luck. I have recorded the
BuNos for about 200 aircraft, mainly from photos, that did recieve the
humps, but it is far from complete.

Thanks to all,

Walt

So far with no results. Any one have an idea. If you check the books
about the A-4 there is a complete absence of info about how many A-4Es
were fitted with the Avionics hump. Being and old AK, at one time, I
would have thought that such information would have been in the A-4E
IPB. Does anyone know? Walt

That would be an interesting bit of info, but I wonder if it would be
cataloged anywhere. Maybe it would be covered under an AFC change
covering certain BuNos since, IIRC, the hump was a mod for the A-4E, F
and L.
