I want one !
Look at this pix : what is the future of these aircraft ? Can we buy any ? Are they bound to be destroyed one day ?

Most likely, almost definitely, this is Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, AZ.

The ones close up look like A-7`s. I guess its spare parts for countries still flying the older jets and more target drones for us to shoot at??

RE: I want one !
There was a huge article in the Air & Space mag a couple of years ago about how the storage yard works. Basically a huge parts bin....those F-14's in the background will most likely supply parts to the flyable ones until the whole fleet is retired in a couple of years (2006, I think....)

All those birds are sitting there until JetCat comes out with their P-20000 Autostarts and JR releases their new DS for full scale apps.
