| 145878 (cn P-9) The Martin P6M Seamaster was the only American jet flying boat bomber produced. The Navy was looking for a fast bomber that could deliver a nuclear payload at low level. Being powered by 4 Pratt & Whitney J75 turbojet engines, the P6M started to show great promise but was abruptly cancelled in 1959 in favor of the Polaris submarine-launched nuclear missile after only 16 examples were completed. Today, all that's left is this rear fuselage and few other small parts. This is on display at the Glenn L. Martin Maryland Aviation Museum. | |||

| N404FS / 56-3899 (cn 243-175) This was one of 3 Super Sabres that was transferred to the U.S. Army for Hawk surface-to-air missile trials. It was later used by Tracor Flight Systems as a "threat aircraft" and target tug to train U.S. Air Force pilots. Now it resides at the Glenn L. Martin Maryland Aviation Museum. | |||
