Israel Retires the Skyhawk

After 48 years and 263 airframes, the IDF has this week finally retired the mighty A-4 Skyhawk. That leaves Argentina, Brazil and Singapore* as the remaining users. *Well, arguably the US still uses it, as Draken International contracts to provide services to the Navy and Air Force.
