The aircraft was designed shortly after World War II to carry atomic bombs and this meant that the bomber was the heaviest aircraft thus far designed to operate from an aircraft carrier. It was powered by two piston engines and a turbojet buried in the rear fuselage. The AJ-1 first became operational in 1950 and several were based in South Korea during 1953 as a deterrent against the Communists. Of the 140 built, plus three prototypes, 30 were reconnaissance aircraft. Inflight-refueling equipment was deployed on the Savage in the mid-1950s. The bomber was replaced by the Douglas A3D Skywarrior beginning in 1957.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan rwr=\"1\" size=\"4\"\u003eEach dial indicates torque pressure ranging from 50 to 400 PSI.
