✦ Synopsis

USMC/USMCR/USNR Douglas A-4A/B Skyhawks is the companion volume to Naval Fighters Number Forty-Nine, the Douglas A-4A/B Skyhawk in Navy Service. The Navy volume contains 61 pages of development, aircraft description details and drawings, that pertain to Marine A-4A/Bs.

Although much fewer Marine squadrons were equipped with the A-4A/Bs than Navy squadrons, the type still saw extensive usage by fourteen active duty Marine squadrons. The aircraft were ultimately assigned to fourteen Navy and Marine reserve bases.
