I believe that the A26K was the Douglas Invader, a different aircraft than the B26 Martin Marauder

On the other hand, after WWII, the Marauder was pulled out of service and the A26 was renamed the B26.

Around the time of the Vietnam war, these "B26" bombers were pulled out of desert boneyards, renamed the A26 again, and sent to SE Asia to operate as COIN aircaraft.
