Summary

Description

A Royal Australian Navy Douglas A-4G Skyhawk of 805 Squadron on deck of the U.S. Navy anti-submarine aircraft carrier USS Kearsarge (CVS-33) during that carrier's deployment to the Western Pacific and Vietnam from 29 March to 4 September 1969.

The A-4G 886 (USN BuNo 154907) was lost at sea when it rolled off the deck of RAN carrier HMAS Melbourne (R21) on 24 September 1979. Melbourne was caught in a storm circa 350 km east of Australia when the ship suddenly rolled 20 degrees to starboard and the aircraft was lost.
