The P-75 Eagle was designed by the Fisher Body Division of General Motors for an Air Force request for a fast climbing fighter. Eight XP-75s and six P-75As (out of an order of 2.500) were delivered and later used for development of the Allison V-3420 engine. This aircraft was the last Eagle built (sister ship 44-44554 nearing completion was never finished) and was set aside in 1946 for a proposed USAAF aviation museum. Pictured in the Museum's Experimental Aircraft Gallery, it has since been moved to the new fourth building for display in the Research and Development Gallery.

On display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. This rare Type 21 Zero was recovered from Kavieng in New Ireland. It was flown by the 6th Kokutai, and is now painted to represent a section leader's Zero from the aircraft carrier Zuiho during the Battle of the Bismarck Sea. The twin 7.7mm fuselage machine guns are missing in this excellent caramel-tint restoration with the visible aotake color in the wheel wells. The longer spinner of this Nakajima-built A6M2b is evident.

On display at NMUSAF. The F-102 was the world's first supersonic all-weather jet interceptor and the USAF's first operational delta-wing aircraft, equipping more than 25 Air Defense Command (ADC) squadrons. It was designed so that its radar would guide the F-102 into an attack position and automatically fire rockets and missiles via the electronic fire-control system. This Delta Dagger of the 57th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron in Iceland was one of the first to intercept a Soviet Tu-95 over the Arctic.

On display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. The C-97 Stratofreighter was the modified cargo/transport version of the B-29. Of the 890 aircraft ordered by USAF, 816 were KC-97 tankers with a tail boom, and the L-model was fitted with two J47 turbojet engines on underwing pylons. This aircraft was flown by 160th Air Refueling Group (ARG) of the Ohio ANG and was christened "Zeppelinheim" by the mayor of that German town during Op. Creek Party, the aerial refueling of NATO forces in Europe.

On display in the SEA Gallery at NMUSAF. This aircraft participated in the Vietnam War and was delivered to the museum in 1970. It wears the Shaw AFB tailcode 'JN.' The RB-66B was reconfigured to provide ESM and ECM support from 1965 to strike aircraft operating over northern Laos and North Vietnam. Variants included the EB-66B, EB-66C and EB-66E that served with 41st TRS (later 41st TEWS) and 42nd TEWS (Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron) from Takhli and Korat. The K-5 radar bombing system equipped EB-66B "Brown Cradle" was also used for pathfinder medium level blind bombing missions.

Only surviving 'D' model on display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force with a Fritz-X guided bomb under the fuselage. This Fernaufklärer Ju-88 was completed in June 1943. The recce D-1 was similar to the A-4 bomber powered by Jumo 211J engines, but had no dive brakes. It had cameras behind frame 15 and additional fuel tanks inside and under the fuselage which increased the range to 5,000 km. The aircraft was delivered to Romania, an ally of Germany. In July 1943 a lone Romanian pilot defected to Cyprus. The Ju-88 was later handed over by the RAF to the USAAF for testing.
