Summary

Description
English: A U.S. Navy Douglas A-4E Skyhawk (BuNo 152069) from Attack Squadron 106 (VA-106) "Gladiators" is brought to the launching position on a steam catapult aboard the aircraft carrier USS Intrepid (CVS-11), during flight operations in the Gulf of Tonkin, September 1968. Note the nosewheel steering bar in use. Although being classified as an anti-submarine carrier, Intrepid made three deployments to Vietnam as an attack carrier with Attack Carrier Air Wing Ten (CVW-10) embarked, the one when the photo was taken, from 4 June 1968 to 8 February 1969, being the last one.
Note: Aircraft BuNo 152069 was actually an A-4E, not an A-4F as stated by the U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command.
