It is a United States built, single-seat, single-engine, long-range attack aircraft and it entered service with the Hellenic Air Force in 1975.

A-7s have been widely used by the USAF in various conflicts, including the Vietnam War, the Libya strikes in 1986, the US intervention in Grenada in 1983 and the invasion of Panama in 1989. During Desert Storm, it demonstrated more than 95% operational readiness and didn't miss a single combat sortie.

In the Hellenic Air Force they were initially based in the Air Bases of Larissa (347 Squadron "Perseas") and Souda (340 and 345 Squadrons, "Fox" and "Lailaps" respectively).

In 2002, the Corsairs were placed to Araxos air base (116 Combat Wing, 335 squadron "Tiger" and 336 squadron "Olympos").

The Hellenic Corsairs are nearing the end of its operational life and its replacement with a fourth generation fighter is high on the list of priorities of the General Air Force

  • @zaxos345 My wifes father W.E. Crowder was one of the engineers who worked on designing this jet. He also was the one who suggested the name Corsair II after the WWII Corsair.

  • με διαφορά το ομορφότερο αεροπλάνο της πολεμικής μας αεροπορίας.

  • polles gnostes fatses!!!!!!!

  • Και εμενα metallicara...Ήταν στην 345ΠΜ ομοίως, παλιός καλός καιρός όντως...

  • So are Phantoms still inuse in many air forces

  • Nickshark,

    The A-7H and TA-7H Corsair IIs were retired in 2007. The A-7E and TA-7C Corsair IIs are still operational and are based at Araxos, Greece.

  • Are these planes still in service? They are pretty old by now...........

  • Δεν θα ξαναπεράσει τέτοιο βομβαρδιστικό από την πατρίδα μας,την οποία εμείς διαλύουμε σιγά σιγά π.χ γράφοντας με λατινικούς χαρακτήρες την ελληνική ιερή γλώσσα.Ντροπή σας.

  • Πόσο κρίμα εμείς οι ίδιοι οι Ελληνες να καταστρέφουμε την γλώσσα μας γράφοντάς την με λατινικούς χαρακτήρες.Μας έχουν ήδη νικήσει χωρίς κανέναν πόλεμο.Ντροπή σας.Ελπίζω να μην είστε στρατιωτικοί.
