V ST Aerospace A-4SU Super Skyhawk je velik projekt nadgradnje napadalnega letala Douglas A-4S Skyhawk, ki ga je leta 1980 izvedla družba Singapore Aircraft Industries (SAI, zdaj ST Aerospace). Uporabljale so ga izključno letalske sile Republike Singapur (RSAF), ki je služila v vlogi lovca-bombnika od leta 1989 do upokojitve leta 2005. Od sredine leta 1999 je A-4SU prevzel dodatno vlogo naprednega reaktivnega trenažnega letala (AJT) za RSAF-ov program usposabljanja AJT v Cazauxu v Franciji.

V Bristol Bloodhound is a British ramjet powered surface-to-air missile developed during the 1950s. It served as the UK’s main air defence weapon into the 1990s and was in large-scale service with the Royal Air Force (RAF) and the forces of four other countries. Part of sweeping changes to the UK’s defence posture, the Bloodhound was intended to protect the RAF’s V bomber bases to preserve the deterrent force, attacking bombers that made it past the Lightning interceptor force. Bloodhound Mk. I entered service in December 1958, the first British guided weapon to enter full operational service. This was part of Stage 1 upgrades to the defensive systems, in the later Stage 2, both Bloodhound and the fighters would be replaced by a longer-range missile code named Blue Envoy. When this was ultimately cancelled in 1957, parts of its design were worked into Bloodhound Mk. II, roughly doubling the range of the missile. The Mk. I began to be replaced by the Mk. II starting in 1964.

V Northrop YC-125 Raider was a 1940s American three-engined STOL utility transport built by Northrop Corporation, Hawthorne, California. Deliveries of the YC-125 to the USAF began in 1950. These aircraft did not serve long as they were underpowered and they were soon sent to Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas and relegated to be ground instructional trainers until retired in 1955 and declared surplus. Most of the surplus aircraft were purchased by Frank Ambrose and sold to bush operators in South and Central America.

V Sd.Kfz. 11 (Sonderkraftfahrzeug – special motorized vehicle) was a German half-track that saw widespread use in World War II. Its main role was as a prime mover for medium towed guns ranging from the 3.7 cm FlaK 43 anti-aircraft gun up to the 10.5 cm leFH 18 field howitzer. It could carry eight troops in addition to towing a gun or trailer. The basic engineering for all the German half-tracks was developed during the Weimar-era by the Reichswehr’s Military Automotive Department, but final design and testing was farmed out to commercial firms with the understanding that production would be shared with multiple companies. Borgward was chosen to develop the second smallest of the German half-tracks and built a series of prototypes between 1934 and 1937. However development was taken over in 1938 by Hanomag who designed the main production version, H kl 6.

V Bushmaster 2000 je bilo majhno potniško letalo, zgrajeno v Združenih državah Amerike v poskusu oživitve dizajna Ford Trimotor. Delo se je začelo leta 1953 s testiranjem starinskega Trimotorja, leta 1954 pa je Bill Stout kupil pravice za oblikovanje originalnega Trimotorja. Zaradi težav z licenciranjem "Ford Tri-Motor" je Ford 15-AT-D dobil ime Bushmaster 2000. 15. januarja 1955 sta Stout in partner Robert Hayden iz Hayden Aircraft Corporation oznanila, da načrtujeta izdelavo 1000 novih Bushmasterjev, vendar je minilo enajst let, preden je prvi prototip novega dizajna poletel.
