Taken on strength by the US Navy as an A-6A around 1970, this Intruder is pictured in the low visibility gray colors being introduced to the fleet at the time. A VA-42 "Green Rook" on the rudder, but other squadron markings are missing. The aircraft was retired and stored at MASDEC on Apr 14, 1994. It is on display since 2000 in front of the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support building in Philadelphia, PA, on loan from National Naval Aviation Museum.

This Academe arrived at AMARC on 13 September 1994. It received inventory code 4G0004. The Gulfstream I departed the storage depot on 17 May 2012 and was then scrapped by HVF West, Tucson (AZ). The TC-4C Acamede with its A-6 nose section was a version with added instruments and navigation. It was used by the US Navy for bombardier/navigator training for the A-6 Intruder and EA-6 Prowler. The US Navy had nine in inventory, one crashed. Only one survived, and this one is in storage at Pensacola.

Only delivered in 1985, 162179 belonged to the latest badges of Intruders delivered to the US Navy. There are even many older BuNo's (and older than FY84/FY85 USAF fighters) still flying operational in the USA. Pity these Intruders were retired that soon. 162179 was retired to AMARC for storage (inventory code 5A0252) in March 1997, stricken on 14 June 2002 and scrapped by HVF West, Tucson (AZ) soon after on 5 May 2016. On this picture it is seen with Attack Squadron (VA) 42 "Green Pawns". The A-6 Intruder Fleet Replacement Squadron was disestablished on 30 September 1994.

Delivered to the US Navy in 1978, damaged on 18 November 1981 during deck operations on the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) in the Mediterranean Sea but repaired afterwards. The Intrufder became an instructional aircraft (fire and rescue trainer) at El Centro (CA) in February 1995 and was last reported in late 2019. On the picture it is seen with Attack Squadron (VA) 42 "Green Pawns" (from 1992 the nickname changed into "Thunderbolts").
