This is the sole surviving true JRS-1 amphibian and is the only aircraft in the Smithsonian collection that was stationed at Pearl Harbor on 7th Dec. 1941, being one of ten JRS-1s at the base when the Japanese attacked. All survived and were immediately pressed into service and flew many missions patrolling for Japanese submarines and searching for the enemy fleet. It was acquired by the Smithsonian in 1960 and is now in the Mary Baker Engen Restoration Hangar at the Udvar-Hazy Center.

The Halberstadt CL.IV was one of the best ground attack aircraft of World War I. It performed well in combat as a low-level attack airplane, relying on its good maneuverability to avoid ground fire. This WWI combat veteran was one of three restored by Deutsches Technikmuseum in Berlin, being completed in June 1991 and is now on display at the Smithsonian's Udvar Hazy Center.

'Flak-Bait' survived 207 combat missions over Europe, more than any other American aircraft during WWII and is currently undergoing restoration in the Mary Baker Engen Hangar of the Udvar-Hazy Center. The Baltimore factory completed the aircraft in April 1943 and the USAAF assigned it to the 449th BS, 322nd BG. Lt. James J. Farrell of Greenwich, CT flew more missions in 'Flak-Bait' than any other pilot. He named the bomber after 'Flea Bait', his brother's nickname for the family dog.

This Tomcat on display at the Udvar-Hazy Center of the National Air and Space Museum was built as an F-14A but was one of 18 upgraded to Super Tomcat D-configuration in the early 1990s, designated F-14D(R) for rebuild. This aircraft flying CAP with VF-32 from the USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) is credited with one MiG-23 Flogger kill which was earned on 4th January, 1989 off the coast of Libya.

This N3N is on display at the super Udvar-Hazy Center of the NASM but was previously part of the Naval Academy's training squadron at Annapolis, Maryland. The N3N nickname of the 'Yellow Peril' derived from the aircraft's propensity to ground loop on landing as the narrow landing gear did not provide much lateral stability at higher touchdown speeds. These seaplanes, when retired in 1961, were the last biplanes retired from US military service.

This N3N is on display at the super Udvar-Hazy Center of the NASM but was previously part of the Naval Academy's training squadron at Annapolis, Maryland. The N3N nickname of the 'Yellow Peril' derived from the aircraft's propensity to ground loop on landing as the narrow landing gear did not provide much lateral stability at higher touchdown speeds. These seaplanes, when retired in 1961, were the last biplanes retired from US military service.

This Huey compiled a distinguished record in Vietnam from 1966 to 1970 during which it completed four combat tours. Numerous patches on its skin attest to the ferocity of missions flown while operating as a 'Smoke Ship', laying down smokescreens for air assault operations with the 11th Combat Aviation Battalion. The National Air and Space Museum acquired the aircraft in 1995 and it is now on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center.

This Helldiver was built in May 1945 but the war ended before it saw any combat. It served with VB-92 aboard the USS Lexington, flying in the western Pacific and occupied Japan. It was retired in 1948 and entered the Smithsonian National Air Museum collection in 1960 and is now on display at the NASM Udvar-Hazy Center..

The Spad XVI was a two-seat version of the very successful single-seat Spad fighters of WWI. An otherwise undistinguished aircraft, this Spad XVI on display at the Udvar-Hazy Center is significant because of it's association with Brig. Gen. Billy Mitchell. Six Spad XVIs were acquired from the French in August 1918 and this one became Mitchell's personal aircraft.

The Ohka 11 was required to be launched within 37 km (23 mi) of the target, making them very vulnerable to defending fighters. The Model 22 was designed to overcome the short standoff distance problem by using a thermojet engine, the Tsu-11. This engine was successfully tested and 50 Ohka 22s were built but never used operationally. This is the only surviving example (marked '59' aft of the blossom) and is on display at the NASM Udvar-Hazy Center.

This was officially accepted in May, 1942 and although not the first helicopter to see military service, the XR-4 was the first mass-produced helicopter and the first successful production rotorcraft of single-rotor configuration. The XR-4C came to the Smithsonian Institution in 1947 as part of a larger gift of aircraft transferred from the USAF to the new National Air Museum. It is now on display at the Udvar-Hazy Center.

In 1938 this G-22 was shipped to Europe for an aerobactic demonstration tour, during which the famous German WWI ace Ernst Udet became only the sceond person ever to fly the Gulfhawk II when he piloted it over Germany. In exchange, the usual pilot, Major Al. Williams became the first American to fly the Bf-109. The G-22 is now on display at the Udvar-Hazy Center.
