This was in fact the original aircraft as depicted in the picture. It was however sold to a private operator in Alaska Dec 55 as N4752C. It later received a major avionics upgrade. In Apr 70 it went to Northern Air Cargo. There were further avionics and structural upgrades in the 70s. It crashed short of the runway at Nelson Lagoon AK 4 Nov 82 and was substantially damaged. Repaired and operated until 1 Jan 85. Ferried to the museum at Wright Field 30 Jun 88 as N4752C.

On display at NMUSAF. The F-102 was the world's first supersonic all-weather jet interceptor and the USAF's first operational delta-wing aircraft, equipping more than 25 Air Defense Command (ADC) squadrons. It was designed so that its radar would guide the F-102 into an attack position and automatically fire rockets and missiles via the electronic fire-control system. This Delta Dagger of the 57th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron in Iceland was one of the first to intercept a Soviet Tu-95 over the Arctic.

The F-102 was the world's first supersonic all-weather jet interceptor and the USAF's first operational delta-wing aircraft, equipping more than 25 Air Defense Command (ADC) squadrons. It was designed so that its radar would guide the F-102 into an attack position and automatically fire rockets and missiles via the electronic fire-control system. This Delta Dagger of the 57th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron in Iceland was one of the first to intercept a Soviet Tu-95 over the Arctic.

On display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. The C-97 Stratofreighter was the modified cargo/transport version of the B-29. Of the 890 aircraft ordered by USAF, 816 were KC-97 tankers with a tail boom, and the L-model was fitted with two J47 turbojet engines on underwing pylons. This aircraft was flown by 160th Air Refueling Group (ARG) of the Ohio ANG and was christened "Zeppelinheim" by the mayor of that German town during Op. Creek Party, the aerial refueling of NATO forces in Europe.

On display in the SEA Gallery at NMUSAF. This aircraft participated in the Vietnam War and was delivered to the museum in 1970. It wears the Shaw AFB tailcode 'JN.' The RB-66B was reconfigured to provide ESM and ECM support from 1965 to strike aircraft operating over northern Laos and North Vietnam. Variants included the EB-66B, EB-66C and EB-66E that served with 41st TRS (later 41st TEWS) and 42nd TEWS (Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron) from Takhli and Korat. The K-5 radar bombing system equipped EB-66B "Brown Cradle" was also used for pathfinder medium level blind bombing missions.

Only surviving 'D' model on display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force with a Fritz-X guided bomb under the fuselage. This Fernaufklärer Ju-88 was completed in June 1943. The recce D-1 was similar to the A-4 bomber powered by Jumo 211J engines, but had no dive brakes. It had cameras behind frame 15 and additional fuel tanks inside and under the fuselage which increased the range to 5,000 km. The aircraft was delivered to Romania, an ally of Germany. In July 1943 a lone Romanian pilot defected to Cyprus. The Ju-88 was later handed over by the RAF to the USAAF for testing.

Clarke from Korat on a nine-hour rescue support mission on Nov. 18, 1972 over Thanh Hóa, Vietnam. Maj. Clarke made a number of passes through low cloud to locate the downed F-105 Wild Weasel crew through heavy AA fire and directed a HH-53 to do a DF letdown on him for the rescue, for which he received the Air Force Cross.
