Slide taken in the outdoor aircraft display area at the old museum on Patterson AFB. The XF-85 Goblin program was a failure, with this a/c only completing one flight on 8 April 1949. The second XF-85, s/n 46-524, only managed to complete four flights and was damaged on the fourth flight. The USAFM received 46-523 in 1950. It was transferred to the new museum and is on display.

Slide taken in the outdoor aircraft display area at the old museum on Patterson AFB. At this time the a/c still wore its correct serial number. It was acquired by the USAFM in 1965 from Air France, where it was used in their training school near Paris. This is a combat veteran, having seen action with the Free French Air Force during the last months of WW 2.

Slide taken in outdoor aircraft display area at the original USAF Museum site. The X-3 was transferred to the museum in 1956, and is now on display inside the current museum. The X-3 never reached its potential due to underpowered engines, but it did contribute data on high speed stability issues. The X-3 wing design was used on both the Lockheed F-104 and the North American X-15.

Built as C-74 USAAF 42-65406. In 1949 it was converted to the YC-124 prototype. Flown to the original USAF Museum in 1957 and put on display in the outside aircraft area. It was deemed too large to move to the current museum site and was donated to the base fire department and expended (scrapped) circa early 1970s. This a/c was not reserialed 48-795 after its conversion. 48-795 was the first new build C-124A constructed.

Slide taken at the outdoor aircraft display area at the original USAF Museum. This was the last B-47E produced, and arrived at the museum in 1965 from the 307th BW. Sadly, it did not relocate in 1971 to the current USAF Museum site and was eventually used as a fire fighting training hulk and was destroyed.

Originally designated YF-96A, it featured the fuselage of the last production F-84E fitted with sweptback wing and horizontal tail. Note the round intake of the f-84E as opposed to the ovular intake of production F-84Fs. The change was required to accommodate the increased airflow needs of the more powerful J65 engine which replaced the J35 of the F-84E and YF-96A.Iit's last use was in the development of the FICON parasite fighter for the B-36 with the addition of a nose hook and negative dihedral on the horizontal tail surfaces.

This F-4 was originally built for the USN as F4H-1 but, before delivery, modified to become the USAF YRF-110A Spectre prototype, which was redesignated RF-4C in 1962. In 1965, it became the YF-4E testbed, to test F-4E slats and Fly by Wire (as seen in this picture). In 1974, canards were added on this aircraft. This photo was taken after the unqiue Phantom was retired and preserved in the Air Force museum.
