Delivered to the US Navy in 1966 as an A-6A, this Intruder was one of eleven converted to an EA-6A for the USMC (plus fifteen new build EA-6As) replacing Korean War era Douglas F3D-2Q Skyknights in the ECM role. Pictured with VMAQ-4, the aircraft was by this time a trainer for the more sophisticated EA-6B. Retired to AMARC in 1993, it was transferred to HVF West in September 2010 for demilitarization and scrapping.
