This F-4 scored its two MiG kills on May 20, 1967 over SE Asia and has certainly earned her retirement at the National Museum of the USAF.

The American military used the L-17 from the late 1940s to the 1960s as liason, reconnaisance, light cargo and FAC aircraft. This aircraft carries the scheme used by a L-17B of the AF ROTC program at Bradley University, Preoria, IL in early 1959. She is now on display at the National Museum of the USAF and, note, definately carries the stencilled serial 48-928A under the cockpit canopy.

In late 1966 the USAF selected a military variant of the Cessna Model 337 Super Skymaster to supplement the O-1 Bird Dog FAC aircraft. The O-2A Skymaster identified and marked enemy targets with smoke rockets, co-ordinated air strikes and reported target damage. This O-2A was assigned to the 20th TAS Squadron at Da Nang, South Vietnam in the late 1960s and is now on display at the National Museum of the USAF.

The QU-22B was to be an unmanned airborne relay for the Igloo White operation during the Southeast Asia War. Igloo White placed and monitored sensors to detect traffic along the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Due to equipment reliability problems all operational flights carried a pilot and the system worked well but, due to the loss of several aircraft, the QU-22 program was cancelled in 1972 and this aircraft went on display at the National Museum of the USAF in 2002.

Initially conceived as a two-seat training version of the F-100, to help reduce the retatively high rate of accident losses, the F-version in SE Asia proved ideally suited for new missions: surface to air missile (SAM) suppression ('Iron Hand') and high-speed forward air control ('Misty FAC'). This Hun was a Misty FAC aircraft assigned to the 37th TFW at Phu Cat AB, Vietnam and went on display at the National Museum of the USAF in 2003.

During the early Cold War years the USAF needed to be able to gather information, such as location, range and coverage, on Soviet radar capability. To meet this need the RB-47H was developed (from the B-47E) and this example came the the National Museum of the USAF in 1998 and following extensive restoration went on display in 2003. She was originally delivered in 1955 and served with the 55th Strategic Reconnaisance Wing until 1966.

In the early 1960s, the USAF investigated the conversion of the Cessna T-37 jet-powered primary trainer for counterinsurgency missions. This lead eventually to the successful development of the YA-37A and the subsequent conversion of 39 T-37s into A-37s for use in Vietnam. This YA-37A was retired to the National Museum of the USAF for display in July 1970.
