After successful service in the Korean War, the F3D remained in service until 1970 as a trainer and electronic warfare aircraft. This one is in the marks of VMFT(N)-20 although it didn't serve that squadron, instead spending nearly all of its service career with various Navy units. Until repainted around 2010, it was displayed in original but dilapidated white Navy colours and 'NJ' tail code.
