The Grumman OV-1 Mohawk was an armed military observation and attack aircraft, designed for battlefield surveillance and light strike capabilities. It was a twin turboprop configuration, and carried two crew members in side-by-side seating. The Mohawk was intended to operate from short, unimproved runways in support of the United States Army.
The OV-1 served in the U.S. Army in Vietnam and during Operation Desert Storm. U.S. Army OV-1s were retired from Europe in 1992, from Korea in September 1996, and finally in the US in 1996, superseded by newer systems, newer aircraft, and the evolution of spy satellites. (courtesy of Wikipedia)
The "B" model has the Side Looking radAR (SLAR) on the starboard side. (101 built)
