Douglas F4D-1 (F-6A) Skyray
Last updated on: May 10, 2013
424 of these planes were produced in the late 1950s. They served for a nearly a decade in
active
Naval and Marine units as well as Reserve units towards the end of the careers. Survivors were
renamed F-6A in 1963.
This is a work in progress and any help would be appreciated. Information on these planes is
rather difficult to locate online and this work will remain incomplete unless you the readers
offer to help me. Please feel free to pass along any
information that you might have.
At the end of this page is a list of people who have graciously offered their help. Thank
you all very much!
