Second of only 2 replicas of this type. Ordered 8 May 1911, the A-1 Triad was the Navy's first aircraft and one of the earliest hydroaeroplanes (floatplane). Built with retractable landing gear, the A-1 could operate from land, sea and air. The Navy used the A-1 for early training and aviation experiments, including the first attempted catapult launch

The X-35C first flew on 16 December 2000 and tested simulated carrier recovery and power approach

These are inaccurate markings on this museum display. The aircraft was indeed operated at NAS Pax with the Naval Research Laboratory's (NRL) air component. In 2004 the NRL air component was formally designated a squadron, Scientific Development Squadron One VXS-1. It was given a tail code and squadron patch. Squadron's and units aboard NAS Patuxent River used to be charged with maintaining the upkeep of the Pax museum aircraft, and when the S-2D was brought in for a fresh paint job, someone decided to mark the bird up in VXS-1 markings instead of maintaining the aircraft's actual markings from it's time in service with NRL.
