Despite the emergence of more modern aircraft which performed the same military functions, such as the O-2 Skymaster and OV-10 Bronco, the O-1 remained in front line service because of its unique characteristics, especially the ability to take off and land on smaller and unprepared airfields. Its military career officially ended only in 1974, when a formal decision was adopted to exclude the O-1 from combat operations.A small number of O-1s was transferred to the Air Force of Asia - these aircraft were used by the Self-Defense Forces of Japan, the Air Force of Thailand. Cambodia, Indonesia, Taiwan, Phillipine and South Vietnam. After that time a small number of O-1s were used in civil air patrol service, while others were sent for scrap or resold to private owners. The total number of O-1s produced reached nearly 3,500 units. |
