It was widely used by the US Navy, US Marine Corps, and the Royal Navy. Its peak usage occurred during the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, where it proved to be a reliable air support machine. The Skyraider was valued for its immense payload, durability, and ability to operate in harsh weather conditions. The AD-4 version was introduced in 1949 and was used intensively until the mid-1960s, including the Korean War (1950-1953) and the early years of the Vietnam War.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eItaleri 2697 AD-4 Skyraider kit details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOriginal countries of service: United States, United Kingdom (Royal Navy)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: late 1940s, Korean War, Vietnam War – Cold War\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic (polystyrene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSprues with very detailed textures\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRealistic pilot's cabin and cockpit with instrument panel detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAccurately reproduced aerodynamic surfaces and weapon pylons\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOptions for mounting landing gear and armament parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncludes decals for American and British versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Italeri 2697 AD-4 Skyraider model is an ideal choice for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty: 3\/5) looking for a faithfully reproduced combat aircraft with a rich history.
