VAH-7

VAH-7, known as Heavy Attack Squadron 7, was a U.S. Navy squadron established on 1 September 1955. The unit was initially equipped with the A-3 Skywarrior, a heavy attack bomber designed for long-range nuclear strike missions during the Cold War. VAH-7 operated from several aircraft carriers, participating in key deployments throughout the Atlantic and Mediterranean regions. The squadron was disestablished on 1 October 1969 as the Navy shifted its focus away from carrier-based heavy attack squadrons.
