Grumman A-6 Intuder/Prowler series has been in service since 1964. Seeing combat from 1965 Vietnam to Libya 2011. While the US Navy is replacing them with EA-18G, the USMC will fly them for a few more years.

What about the UH-1 Huey. It has been in combat in many places since about 1962?

As for the Bolivian T-33 I belive they are still in service. There was an article in “Combat Aircraft’ a few mouths ago. As far a WWII requirement the P-80 was designed in 1943 and flew in 1944. The original designation for the T-33A was TF-80C and was changed for political/budgetary reasons.

What about the S-2 Tracker? First flight 1952.

Thanks, but I was looking for combat aircraft, not just in military service.
