Right Jorge, but with your aircraft recognition training it would be a dead give away. To me the Black Widow's lines are riight up there with the P-51 Mustang.

You kiddin'? my flight recognition SUCKS. Hell I missed one that I actually flew in (although not my operational airplane) the F-14-D! There is also a P-51 variant that was rather rare (forget the nomenclature) but it was a "Twin" Mustang.

Convair F2Y Sea Dart. Used the skis for takeoff and landing, pretty crzy design.

Here's a pretty easy one. But a cool plane anyway. The US Navy flew Kifirs from Oceania Naval Air Station (Virginia Beach) for combat maneuvering training purposes in the late 1980's. I've got a picture of one in US Navy markings somewhere that I took during an open house.

One of my favorite all-time aircraft; and no hook! , Jorge. I have never seen a B-58, but I hear that the AF museum in Nebraska? has one in good shape?? Also, I bet that thing was a beast to fly. Too bad they didn't have a longer service life, though. IO saw one in the Consolidated (Confederate) Air Force museum hangers in Galveston in the late 1990's. Cool plane.

There is a Northrop P-61 on display at the National Air and Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Annex at Dulles airport.

I thought the Navy used them as dissimilar aggressors or is that what combat maneuvering training is in Navy lingo?

OK. Sheesh, that's a long phrase for that. We just called ours "Aggressors". LOL
