Originally built as EB-47E 52-410. Operated by USN under contract with Douglas from mid 1960s through the end of 1977. It was assigned USN BuNo. 24100 (previously used by a Grumman TBF-1.) Delivered to Pease AFB on 20 December 1977 and put on display repainted in USAF markings, but it still carried the USN BuNo. 24100 and the large "3" on vertical fin when this slide was taken. When used by the Navy, the a/c was assigned to Fleet Electronic Warfare Support Group (FEWSG) with the squadron code number "3". Photographer Ron McNeil.

Slide taken at the outdoor aircraft display area at the original USAF Museum. This was the last B-47E produced, and arrived at the museum in 1965 from the 307th BW. Sadly, it did not relocate in 1971 to the current USAF Museum site and was eventually used as a fire fighting training hulk and was destroyed.
