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 AT-9 advanced trainer was used to bridge the gap between single-engine trainers and twin-engine combat aircraft. The AT-9 was not easy to fly or land, making it particularly suitable for teaching new pilots to cope with the demanding flight characteristics of a new generation of high-performance, multi-engine aircraft such as the B-26 and P-38. This AT-9 at the National Museum of the USAF is one of only two examples that survive today.

This Traveler was allocated the USAAF serial 44-76068 but went immediately to the USN in May 1944 as BuNo. 23733. A wheels-up landing in 1968 ended its flying career and it passed to the NMUSAF, where it is on display in markings representing an 8th Air Force aircraft in England in 1943

First appearing entering combat in May 1918, the Fokker D. VII quickly showed its superior performance over Allied fighters. With its high rate of climb, higher ceiling and excellent handling characteristics, German pilots scored a remarkable 565 victories over Allied aircraft during the month of August alone. The reproduction aircraft on display at the National Museum of the USAF is painted to represent the Fokker D. VII of Lt. Rudolph Stark, a squadron leader of Jasta 35b in Oct. 1918.

The CG-4A was the most widely used US troop/cargo glider of WWII. Constructed of fabric-covered wood and metal, the CG-4A was crewed by a pilot and co-pilot. It could carry 13 troops and their equipment or a jeep, a quarter-ton truck or a 75mm howitzer loaded through the upward-hinged nose section. Fifteen companies manufactured over 12,000 CG-4As and this survivor is 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.

The YPT-16 was a military version of the civilian Ryan STA and became the first monoplane acquired by the Army Air Corps as a primary trainer. This aircraft flew as NC18922 in civilian life but is on display at the National Museum of the USAF as one of the 15 YPT-16 operated by the AAC. They must have been satisfied and this led on to the AAC operating nearly 1,200 more similar Ryan trainers as PT-20s, PT-21s and PT-22s.

The AT-11 was the standard USAAF WWII bombing trainer, with about 90% of the more than 45,000 USAAF bombardiers trained on AT-11s. This example, on display at the National Museum of the USAF, is one of 1,582 ordered by the USAAF between 1941-1945 and is painted to represent a trainer in service during the autumn of 1943.

The L-1 liaison aircraft, originally designated O-49, was the military version of the civilian Stinson Model 74. This example was delivered to the USAAF around 1941 as 40-0291 but is on display at the National Museum of the USAF in this nice US Army medivac scheme.
