Btw, does someone have reliable range data of the Intruder? The numbers I found seem to be inconsistent:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grumman_A-6_Intruder#cite_note-jawa82_p377-8-60
Combat range: 3,243 mi (5,219 km)
Ferry range: 2,733 mi (4,398 km)

http://www.airforceworld.com/attacker/eng/a6.htm
Range with full combat load: 1,077 mi (1,733 km)
Range with external fuel tanks: 3,100 mi (4,991 km)

An official data sheet would be highly appreciated
