This site is a pictorial history of the A-4 Skyhawk whilst in service with the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF). The RNZAF operated the Skyhawk  for 31 years before the entire Air Combat Force was disbanded in 2002 by the Clark Labour Government. Since then the Skyhawks and Aermacchi's have been up for sale, with a deal being imminent. 

It is doubtful the Kiwi Skyhawks will ever fly again despite the spin from he Labour government and the RNZAF, one can only hope a number of them are preserved in various museums throughout New Zealand and Australia.

The site is primarily photographs, many of which are RNZAF Official or come from peoples private collections. I thank them for allowing me to display them here. I have attempted to acknowledge the copyright owner in any text and in the file name. However if there is an error please e-mail me.

Included is an RNZAF T/A-4K  Skyhawk "walk around" that maybe useful for modellers along with a section on the A-4G Skyhawks service with the Royal Australian Navy Fleet Air Arm.

If you have any Kiwi A-4 Skyhawk Images, video, or articles and you would like them displayed here then e-mail me.
