Below is a home video featuring the OV-10 Bronco. Home movies filmed by an Ordnance Specialist serving in Chu Lai & Danang in 1967-68 (VMFA-542) and in 1970-71 (VMO-2), plus footage from the early 1960s with the US Army 3rd Inf. Div. in Germany.
The OV-10 is many things. One thing that is not mentioned much is its rear cargo bay. The cargo bay has many uses, including providing additional carrying space for munitions and fuel .
When not in combat, the Bronco would be used as a liasion, airdrop, or medevac aircraft. It has also been used in the past to carry special operations soldiers.
AVhistorybuff talks about the first aircraft designed for close combat battlefield support operations, the OV-10A code name “The BRONCO”. Checkout the video for more information.
