  1. Hughes XF-11
    The Hughes XF-11 was a prototype reconnaissance aircraft designed for the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). The program was delayed beyond the end of the Second World War, rendering it surplus to the USAAF needs and it was cancelled. destinationsjourney.com/histor #aerialwarfare #aeroplane #AirForce #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #HowardHughes #HughesXF11 #Military #reconnaissanceaircraft #UnitedStatesAirForce #UnitedStatesArmyAirForces #USAAF #USAF #warfare #XF11 #XF11 #XR11

  2. OA-10A (equivalent to PBY-5A) Catalina, ex-USAAF. This observation/search and rescue amphibian was used post-War by the United States Army Air Forces. A rugged aircraft, it has survived to this day.
