It flew the missions no one else could &mdash; and it flew them low, into the teeth of the heaviest air defences on Earth. On the night of 30 October 1967, a single Intruder crewed by Charles Hunter and Lyle Bull ran the gauntlet of ten surface-to-air missiles to strike the Hanoi ferry docks at rooftop height. Both men received the Navy Cross. Eighty-four Intruders did not come home from that war.<\/p>\r\n<div style=\"max-width:550px;margin:0 auto 28px\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?id=1472748110850019331&theme=light\" style=\"width:100%;height:520px;border:none;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n<p>The airframe proved endlessly adaptable.

But its intended successor, the stealthy A-12 Avenger II, collapsed under cost overruns and was cancelled. Rather than replace the Intruder, the Navy simply retired it: the Marines in 1993, the Navy in 1997.
