Hi friends! I went to Wright Patt recently and I figured I would share a few photos that didn't turn out like crap.

>inb4 f014 killed her
no, ICBMs did
Isaac Wright
You get any lewd shots?
Dylan Lee
B-70 propulsion tool. Limited Edition 1 of 30
Asher Gray
Funny you should mention the 104, even the gate guard to the museum looks like it is mid crash.
Nicholas Perry
Not really fren. Most of the birds now are behind partitioned off little fences so you can't really get up and close to about 90% of them. Which I get, you don't want somebody scratching 'I LUV JESS' or something into a one off craft.
Asher Scott
Speedy Boi
Liam Long
Josiah Nelson
I didn't realize it when I took this, but the Apollo 15 capsule is in the photo.
Jack Rogers
Testbed F-16
Landon Cox
Air Force Harrier for reasons.
Carson Hernandez
if not for lockheeb shills US would've had plane much better than f-22
it hurts so much bros
Kevin Bailey
Sorry I don't have more from the experimental hanger, quite a few of the photos were just heavily blurred. Here is a Hustlers ass though.
Jaxson Jenkins
Six turning, Four burning.
It was more stealthy, that was about it. Otherwise the F-22 is better in almost every other aspect.
Oliver Brown
Stale meme, or commie shitposting?
Isaac Russell
Also 4u
William Mitchell
No idea why it's in US colours but that's a British Hawker Kestrel not a harrier.
Michael King
Apart from the B-70 and like one or two others. My favorite birb.
Alexander Campbell

Because the USAF tested them Fren.
Bentley Wood
Didn't realize this when I was lining up the shot in the previous photo there was a U-2 up there.
Hudson Powell
More B-47 posting though.
William Taylor
I think this is the tail gunner position on the B-36, hard to tell from the order of my photos.
Landon Johnson
Luke Price
The UK, UK and Germany tested them in the same plain livery. That aircaft (XS688) has been repainted in US colours after the conclusion of testing.
Charles Carter
Is she still pretty with no skin?
Asher Torres
forgot pic, this is what it used to look like - it's the same aircaft - XS688 - which became 418262
Daniel Gray
Interesting, thanks for the info,
Lincoln Rogers
Very good stuff OP. I've been to a lot of aviation museums in the south, but haven't had the chance to go up to Ohio yet.
If you're ever in the Fl. panhandle czech out the Naval Aviation museum it's pretty damn cool.
Have a shitty pic of 1 of 2 YF17s ever made
Josiah Clark
fuck my life. 3rd time lucky
Nicholas Diaz
The old silver, white, and blue liveries are great.
Nathan Jones
This may come as a bit of a shock, but museums do that quite often.
I love the F-17. Thanks!
Adrian Kelly
Not a B-29, B-29 coming though. Again I love that livery.
Grayson Perry
There are a few whirly birbs here also.
Kayden Cook
Brayden Young
op you better have gotten a pic of Strawberry Bitch
Robert Perry
Jeremiah Jones

Bentley Ward
>design flaw negates frontal stealth
>has to redesign entire airframe to fix said flaw
gg, Northrop.
Jeremiah Sanchez
Parker Morris
this is a gold mine
Elijah Richardson

Jaxon Williams
the US would have a functional airforce if not for lockheeb. now even the russians are laughing at us.
Mason Miller
Carson Bailey
Sadly the WWII hangar was packed, that was the best I got. The photos I have from it are the ones I was lucky to get. I'll post more of them when I get to that hangar.
Oliver Gomez
Commie Deaderer 9000
Ian Torres
>why yes i am russian how did you know
Connor Sanders
Ah man I love Wright Patt, I live in Cincinnati and have gone hundreds of times
just visited last summer, when did you go OP?
Jose Gomez
Hudson Brooks
I think it was literally a week ago. I am from the 330 so I don't get over there too much. I might try and convince my dad to go this summer and we'll catch a Reds game or two while we are down there.
Also I love the solution to not having accurate AA missles; make them nuclear!
Kevin Gonzalez
not OP , but fuck yeah, fellow 513
Gavin Campbell
Samuel Torres
Getting a decent shot of the """"B-2"""" proved annoying, so here is the landing gear cover.
Josiah James
Ass of a Blackbirb.
Austin Taylor
Thunderbirb F-16.
Jeremiah Flores
Thunderbirb F-100.
Jose Edwards
I just realized I have better shots of the F-16 and F-100, shid.
Jose Adams
Jackson Myers
Getting a full shot of the B-1 in there was impossible.

Good on you user, I have most of the same photos!
Camden Phillips
french fries/freedom fries it became a meme during the 9/11 thing
Henry Sullivan
oh ok, but does it stands for anything?
also that
>AF 76 027
is this name of a unit or something?
James Reed
Jack White
I work 5 min from there, took my brother there about a week ago. Love the new hanger.
Justin Lee
The FF is the two letter code for the Air Base, in that case Patrick AFB in Florida. The two little numbers are the year the aircraft was ordered (1978) and the big three are the last three digits of that aircrafts serial number.
William Ross
Wait, fuck. FF is Langley.
William Gomez
Grayson Perez
Great stuff, user.
Have a pic from Ford Island.
Nathaniel Thomas
Grayson Butler
I really like how Americans take care of machines in muesums
you have nice ventilated hangars etc.
here in eastern europe museum is just scrap yard that you can pay to visit
Nicholas Sanchez
Thanks Fren, Wright Patt has one also.
Connor Thompson
Wright Patterson is also free.
Grayson Baker
Aiden Hall
>is also free
h-how
Jaxson Sanders
Its really how much of a shame it is that the USAF tries and breaks the thought of them being "just bomb taxi's" when they have always been great at it.
Isaiah Williams
Donations from companies like Boeing, Locheed Martin, etc. I don't think they receive a cent of government funding.
Ian Walker
I think it has something to do with donations they get each year, lots of the guides and other persons working there are volunteers. Food is expensive as fuck at the food court and was getto mall food court tier.
Ethan Ward
NATO manned aerial target practice since 1970.
Angel Wright
>stencil of US
>without Alaska
every teim
Grayson Clark
We (the american public) already paid for everything there. I'd be kinda fucked up if we had to pay again to see this stuff.
Also, can confirm, it is free. Most places in the US like this are.
Udvar Hazi museum is $5 for parking, no admission fee.
Isaac Watson
>Food is expensive as fuck at the food court and was getto mall food court tier.
Its literally no different than on base food offerings for military personnel.
Connor Martin
>NATO manned aerial target practice since 1970.
I keked
Bentley Jones
Wright Patt is free admission, and free parking. You don't pay a cent to see the aircraft.
Carson Nelson
it was shit tier, I didn't eve look to see if AAFES runs the food court in the museum
Jack Davis
mig-23 was shit?
Brody King
Thanks for posting. I've not been there since the early 90's.
Xavier Collins
Yes.
