Its a infra red scanner for looking for trains at night , there's a web site on the squadron with other pics of it (its a one off AFAICR) & other sqn. a/c. I'll post it when I find it.

P.S. Oscar Ducks A-26 will be painted as one of this squadron's a/c

Byany chance do you have a picture of 44-34520 ?

Have read of 'Old Able'
A plane with personality, Old Able was the most beloved B-26 on the flight line. She always brought her crews home.
203 missions in one year

I would like to revive this thread, would anybody like to share some color pictures of A-26s/B-26s in Korea with their crews?

The one with the funny nose getting a new engine or is that a new jet set up.

Neat pics Lon. I haven't seen that type of installation before. Thanks for resurrecting this thread

Always thought the a-26 was such a amazing plane. 16-18 .50 cals pointed on one spot is vicious
