Following World War II, the U.S. Navy's carrier fleet adopted North American's AJ-2 Savage. Armed with nuclear weapons, this massive bomber was propeller-driven with supplemental turbojet power. Too cumbersome for large-scale carrier deployment, Savages were rotated between bases on shore and seagoing carriers.
