Originally delivered as A3D-1 (A-3A) in 1956. Converted to EA-3A in 1966 and assigned to the Pacific Missile Test Center. In 1974 the a/c was flown to NAS Pensacola and retired to the museum and put in the outdoor aircraft display area. It is still at the museum, now on display on the flightline. It is currently painted in VAH-1 markings, which this a/c wore during its assignment to that squadron after having been built in 1956.
