The AJ Savage was the first U.S. bomber designed especially to carry the atomic bomb. It was North American's first attack bomber for the U.S. Navy and was designed shortly after the end of World War II. It used two P&W R-2800 engines to turn four-bladed propellers for normal takeoff and cruise flight and a J33 turbojet for accelerated takeoff or bombing run-in. It carried a crew of three and had folding wings so that it could be stored on an aircraft carrier. North American built 145 AJ Savages, including a photoreconnaissance version with a modified radome and 18 cameras.
