T-28D "Троуджен", аэродром Альбертвилль, январь 1966г.

T-28D-5 0-53649 previously served with the US Navy before joining the KAF in late 1973, and is seen here with a pair of Mk 82 bombs on each wing. It was later damaged in an accident at Kampong Thom in June 1974 and escaped to Thailand in 1975. The badge, incorporating a stylised winged bomb, is the KAF Fighter Group’s pilot insignia.

North American T-28D-15 serial 51-7555 of the Khmer Air Force Groupe d’Intervention’s fighter squadron, based at Battambang in 1973, loaded with a standard configuration of four Mk 82 500lb bombs.

Из-за проблем с плохой приемистостью двигателя, что было совершенно недопустимо на морских учебных машинах, на T-28B установили новый, более мощный двигатель. Данный самолет принадлежал 2-й учебной эскадрилье ВМС США, приписанной к авиабазе Уайтинг-Филд.

T-28 "Троян"

North American T-28B BuNo 140035/'035' (N281CM) is one of three former US military aircraft regularly used by the US Navy Test Pilot School at NAS Patuxent River, Maryland. Registered to the Edwards Group in Aldie, Virginia, the T-28B is hired by the school so that its students can fly a veteran aircraft for part of the fixed wing course. The aircraft is shown landing at NAS Patuxent River on October 21, 2011.

Three types of aircraft, each from a different generation, on the USNTPS flight line at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. Nearest to the camera is a privately owned North American T-28B BuNo 140035, and in the background a Saab 340 operated by Calspan Flight Research and an F/A-18F Super Hornet assigned to the school.

После снятия с вооружения ВС США самолеты T-28 активно продавались на гражданском рынке. Эти три самолета попали в пилотажную группу "Trojan Phlyers" и сфотографированы в 2007 году во время выставки "Holloman Air & Space Expo".

In the foreground is the North American T-28B, flown by Chuck Smith; accompanying it are Bruce Lockwood in the P-51D Mustang and Alan Preston in Lockheed P-38 Lightning N5596V, which sold at the auction for $1.5 million (£909,090)

Note the absence of the underwing machine-gun gondolas, which have not yet been refitted, and the ‘‘stars and bars” type of insignia, incorporating the Cambodian towers symbol, used by the KAF during 1970-75.

An extremely rare colour photograph showing the various types in service with the AVRK in 1968. Lined up on the taxiway at Pochentong are a total of seven Douglas C-47s; two Ilyushin Il-14s; four MD.315 Flamants; four T-28D Trojans, ten AD-4N Skyraiders and two MiG-17Fs - an extraordinary mix of Western and Soviet aircraft types

Note the black band on the undersurface of the wing, painted to make it harder to see if a bomb was still on the rack. Communist troops were bolder once the bombs had been dropped!

The only aircraft displayed at the 'Museo del Ejercito y Fuerza Aerea' at Popotla is this North American T-28A, No 936.

Exceptionally rare photo of the 'Haitian' B-25 was taken at Port-au-Prince, in the company of a Haitian F-51D and T-28S Fennec in March 1972.

Stephen Miller of Fredericksburg, Virginia, followed up our feature 'Ultimate Trojan' on the North American YAT-28E in AE99 by sending in this view of 51-3788 at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, on August 24, 1966. The aircraft was en route to Davis-Monthan AFB in Arizona, for storage. Note the modified canopy and the enlarged fin and rudder.

Latest variant of the standard piston-engine basic trainer North American T-28 is the T-28C for the U.S. Navy. The cockpit canopy differs from the earlier U.S. Navy T-28B and the U.S .A.F. T-28A, and the T-28C has a revised rear (ventral) fuselage outline to incorporate a deck-landing hook.

A USAF major prepares to board a T-28 at Wattay, July 1966. By that time, members of the US Air Attache’s office had received permission to fly weather reconnaissance missions over northern Laos. During such sorties, they used the same T-28s allocated to the Fireflies, the only difference being placards with miniature USAF markings put on the sides of the fuselage.

В 1961 году Южному Вьетнаму передали ранее принадлежавшие ВМС США самолеты T-28B Trojan. Сначала ими вооружили только одну эскадрилью ВВС Южного Вьетнама (авиабаза Ня Транг). Самолеты применялись для нанесения ударов по инфраструктуре НФО.

An AVRK North American T-28D Trojan departs for a patrol mission over Cambodia in 1969. The AVRK had originally attempted to acquire T-28 Fennecs from France in early 1962; but, after the deal fell through, the air arm’s first 16 T-28Ds were acquired in August that year, courtesy of the USA’s Military Advisory & Aid Group (MAAG).

A pair of bomb-armed T-28Ds taxy out at a primitive makeshift airstrip for a ground-strike sortie in support of Cambodian troops in the besieged Kampong Thom enclave. The nearest aircraft, serial 51-3583, went on to serve with the Philippine Air Force after leaving Cambodian service in 1975.

All departures and arrivals of the transports involved in the Phnom Penh "air bridge” in 1975 had to be covered by KAF T-28s or gunship helicopters. Here a T-28D of the Groupe d’Intervention, fitted with four napalm tanks, takes off to provide an Airlift International DC-8-63 with top cover before the latter departs Pochentong.

A pair of KAF T-28Ds return to Pochentong after a ground-attack mission on August 15, 1973. The date is significant as it was the day the USA halted all offensive operations over Cambodia by American air assets. From this point on, the pilots of the KAF would face the nation’s enemies alone.

Ветеран тайских ВВС, T-28D, был снят с вооружения в начале 1980-х годов вместе с ганшипами AC-47. После снижения активности партизан основной задачей для вооруженных сил Таиланда стала борьба с наркоторговцами.

Из-за эмбарго на поставку оружия объявленного США сальвадорцы использовали в качестве бомбардировщиков "Дакоты", а гондурасцы в качестве перехватчиков "Трояны", причем последние оказались довольно эффективны даже в руках резервистов.

An abandoned North American T-28 of the Royal Lao Air Force at Phou Khao Khwai in December 1965. The locals quickly reduced the aircraft to a hulk, taking anything usable to make tools and other useful items.

During the night of January 21, 1971, some 97 North Vietnamese commandos of the 367th Assault Sapper Group, which specialised in air base attacks, infiltrated Pochentong and destroyed nearly 60 per cent of the KAF’s air assets, including this T-28D.

Another of the T-28Ds destroyed during the attack on Pochentong. Although the KAF inventory was hit hard by the North Vietnamese attack, the human resources - air- and groundcrew, which were much harder to replace (and took longer) - remained relatively unscathed.
