Title: North American AJ-1 Savage
The AJ-1 Savage was developed specifically to deliver nuclear weapons. It’s curious mixture of piston engines and one jet engine was a result of both the lack of performance of early jet engines and the high weight of early nuclear weapons. However its size made it cumbersome to operate on the few aircraft carriers that could accommodate it, and it also proved unreliable in service due to its rushed development.
A turbo-prop powered version of the Savage was built as the XA2J Super Savage but engine reliability problems delayed development until the introduction of the jet-powered A-3 doomed the project.
This title contains the flight manual for both the AJ-1 and the XA2J. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals unless otherwise stated and retain any colour pages.
