Douglas F4D-1 Skyray
Last updated on: February 12, 2012
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.
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. I will give due credit, of course, so
feel free to email me. Pass along any information that you might have.
