Unfortunately painted in a less than convincing US Navy scheme and using a BuNo that belonged to an SP-2H, this T-33 was really 95+20, supplied to Germany under MDAP ex 58-0684

F/A-18E Lot 34, ordered in FY11. First assigned to VFA-122 as NJ-230 from fall 2012 up to early 2013. The transferred to VFA-27 in March 2013.

Fictitious markings, in fact a former Luftwaffe aircraft with registration 9520.

F-4N in tension moments before launch. Note that the F-4 used the bridle launch method, the bridle cables seen running from the shuttle behind the nose gear up to hooks located at both wing roots. The F-4 nose gear extends for catapult launches so the wing has more angle of attack. This lowers the takeoff speed thus allowing launches within the capabilities of the catapult. This F-4N is carrying two live AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles. White object in lower left is a video camera recording the launch.

Delivered an as F-4J, this Phantom was upgraded to an F-4S before retirement at the Naval Air Depot, NAS North Island in 1986. It's pictured on display at the Santa Maria Museum of Flight .

Fake markings, the serial belonging to a P-2H Neptune. Actually former Luftwaffe T-Bird 9520.
