To keep costs down and speed delivery, the A-7 design was based on the F-8 Crusader, which is no longer in the inventory. The A-7A flew for the first time in September 1965. Since then, other versions of the Corsair II have been produced for the Air Force and Navy, and the Greek and Portuguese air forces. The A-7D model, developed for the Air Force, was accepted in December 1968. While it was designed primarily for an air-to-surface attack role, its weapons delivery accuracy, extended range, ordnance payload and responsiveness also met requirements for close air support and air interdiction. Production of 459 A-7Ds was completed in December 1976. The aircraft first entered combat in the Vietnam War in October 1972. Deliveries of the A-7D to Air National Guard squadrons began in 1973; final deliveries were made in 1981. "

It turned out to be a fine aircraft with good all around characteristics. But it was ill fated. The RA demanded a long series of ""improvements"" that held back production so that it was not operational until Dec. 1941, and then only 140 were produced by 1942. The basic problem was that most of the German made engines were put into Maachi 202s. Only 237 Re2001s were built.

The prototype Widgeon flew for the first time in July 1940, but America's impending entry into WW2 stalled plans for civilian production. The first production Widgeon was the military J4F1, a three seat anti submarine patrol and utility version for the US Navy. The US Navy and US Army Air Force ordered large numbers of Widgeons throughout the war years, others saw service with the US Coast Guard and 15 were supplied to Britain's Royal Navy, that service originally calling the aircraft Gosling. In all, 176 Widgeons were built for military service during the conflict."
