This long pitot tube equipped Talon did not finished its career on a proper way... it crashed on 21 May 2009 while performing a United States Air Force Test Pilot School (USAFTPS) mission. The goal of the mission was collecting information during a so-called Flying Qualities Longitudinal Static Stability Data mission. This sortie required flying a series of test points at 0.9 Indicated Mach Number and 20,000 ft MSL. The Talon impacted the ground some 12 miles north of homebase Edwards, killing one of the two man crew,

Within the Combined Test Force of the 6512th Test Squadron, this Eagle was involved in the testing of the Anti Satellite Missile (ASAT). The aircraft fired an ASM-135 missile on 21 Dec'82. These tests continued for several years. In 1988, the Reagan Administration cancelled the ASM-135 program because of technical problems, testing delays, and significant cost growth. The Eagle served Edwards up to 1995. It was then stored at AMARC with inventory code FH0116 on 18 May 1995. It was moved to HVF West at Tucson on 25 November 2008 and scrapped.

Delivered to the USAF in late 1978, and directly assigned as a test aircraft with the 6512 Test Squadron at Edwards AFB (CA). It was involved in the air-launched Anti-SATellite (ASAT) program. The Eagle was retired in May 1995 to AMARC on 18 May 1995 and left the storage depot on 18 May 1995. Its forward fuselage was then used at Robins AFB from November 2011 for instruction while the remainder was scrapped.

Delivered to the USAF on 15 Feb'86, the then brand-new Eagle was assigned to the 6512th Test Squadron at Edwards for various kind of tests. It was only moved from squadron in 2007 when it was transferred to the 445th Flight Test Squadron at Eglin AFB (FL) where it served up to 2015. It was then assigned for first operational squadron duty with the 493rd Fighter Squadron at RAF Lakenheath (UK). After that base retired their F-15C/Ds, it was moved to the Oregon ANG where it served the 114th Fighter Squadron. In an accident, the Eagle departed the runway on 15 May 2023 and was written off.

Not the very best click, caused by 100% back light at one of the rollers of Edwards, but this F-16A was used in the test program for the Air Defence Fighter (ADF) variant of the Fighting Falcon. It was moved from the 6512th TS to Lockheed Martin at NAS Fort Worth in 1997 for onboard fire tests. Parts were seen at the dump of the airfield in late 2011. It was gone by mid-2012.

This F-16A was involved in the Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night test program, it carried a LANTIRN "Havoc in the Night" badge and a LANTIRN pod on station 5R (right hand of intake). Initial Operational Test & Evaluation of the pod was completed in Dec'84. The USAF approved low-rate initial production of the pod in Mar'85. The first production pod was delivered to the USAF in Mar'87. Tests continued. This F-16A was stored at AMARC with inventory code FG0330 on 13 Jul'95. Check the Israeli F-16A in the background (serial 301) which I was not allowed to photograph.

Within the Combined Test Force of the 6512th Test Squadron, this Eagle was involved in the testing of the Anti Satellite Missile (ASAT). The aircraft fired an ASM-135 missile on 21 Dec'82. These tests continued for several years. In 1988, the Reagan Administration cancelled the ASM-135 program because of technical problems, testing delays, and significant cost growth. The Eagle served Edwards up to 1995. It was then stored at AMARC with inventory code FH0116 on 18 May 1995. It was moved to HVF West at Tucson on 25 November 2008 and scrapped.
