C-1 Trader White Mug

$9.99 USD

The Grumman C-1A Trader was a carrier onboard delivery aircraft used by the United States Navy to transport personnel and essential supplies to aircraft carriers at sea. Originally designated the TF-1, it first flew on 19 January 1955 and entered naval service later that year. It was redesignated C-1A under the unified U.S. military designation system in 1962.

Closely related to the S-2 Tracker, the Trader had folding wings and a deep, spacious fuselage capable of carrying nine passengers or up to 3,500 pounds of cargo. It delivered mail, replacement aircrew, spare parts and other urgently needed supplies between shore bases and deployed carriers.

During the Vietnam War, C-1As regularly supported U.S. carriers operating in the Pacific. They were also used for training in all-weather carrier operations. A total of 87 Traders were built, four of which were later converted for electronic-countermeasures duties.

Although gradually succeeded in the carrier delivery role by the turboprop C-2 Greyhound, the dependable piston-engined Trader remained in U.S. Navy service until 30 September 1988.
