The A-6 Intruder, an all-weather attack aircraft developed by Grumman Aerospace, was introduced to the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps in 1963 and saw extensive service in various conflicts, including Vietnam, Lebanon, and the Gulf War.

Despite its effectiveness in low-altitude missions, the A-6 faced significant losses, totaling 84 during the Vietnam War. Retired in 1997, its legacy continued through the EA-6B Prowler, with a total of 693 airframes constructed, some of which are now displayed in museums.
