description: # from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_A-5_Vigilante
The North American A-5 Vigilante is an American carrier-based supersonic bomber
designed and built by North American Aviation (NAA) for the United States Navy.
Development of the A-5 had started in 1954 as a private venture by NAA, who sought
to produce a capable supersonic long-distance bomber as a successor to the abortive
North American XA2J Super Savage. It was a large and complex aircraft that
incorporated several innovative features, such as being the first bomber to feature
a digital computer, while its ability to attain speeds of up to Mach 2 while
carrying a nuclear strike payload was also relatively ambitious for the era.
The US Navy saw the value of such a bomber, leading to a contract for its full
development and production being issued to the firm on 29 August 1956. The type
performed its first flight just over two years later, on 31 August 1958.
The Vigilante was introduced by the US Navy during June 1961; it succeeded the
Douglas A-3 Skywarrior as the Navy's primary nuclear strike aircraft, but its
service in this capacity was relatively brief due to the deemphasising of manned
bombers in American nuclear strategy. A far larger quantity of the RA-5C tactical
strike reconnaissance variant were also procured by the service, which saw
extensive service during the Vietnam War. It also established several world records
in both long-distance speed and altitude categories. During the mid-1970s, the
withdrawal of the type commenced after a relatively short service life, largely due
to the aircraft being expensive and complex to operate, as well being a victim of
post-Vietnam military cutbacks.
