EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the Douglas EKA-3B Skywarrior 142654 in all its glory, showcasing the sleek design and powerful presence of this iconic aircraft. Originally serving with the United States Navy, this particular Skywarrior was assigned to VX-5 around 1959 before undergoing a conversion to KA-3B by NARF Alameda in June 1967.
In November of that same year, it was once again converted, this time to an EKA-3B variant. The aircraft eventually found itself at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base for storage and disposal around 1975, marking the end of its active service.
