Originally built as U-2A 56-6681 and later converted to a WU-2A. Modified as a U-2G capable of operating off US Navy aircraft carriers. Transferred to NASA and remodified back to U-2C version. NASA operated this a/c from 1971 through 1987 out of the Ames Research Center at Moffett Field. It is now on display there.
