Den Northrop JB-1 "Bat" var en amerikansk yt-till-yta kryssningsmissil som var en prototyp jetdriven flygvinge. United States Army Air Forces MX-543-programmet initierades i september 1942 för att använda licensbyggda versioner av Frank Whittles jetmotor (General Electric J31). Northrop Corporation kontrakterades i slutet av 1943, och endast 10 JB-1-flygplan byggdes. En bemannad version bogserades för den 1: a flygningen den "27 augusti 1943" från Rogers Dry Lake och en segelflygplanversion lanserades från en raketdriven släde och kraschade i december 1944. En obemannad JB-1 som drivs av en improviserad General Electric B-1 turbojet med ett vingspann på 28 fot 4 tum (8.64 m) gjorde sin första flygning från Eglin Fields Santa Rosa Island, Florida, den 7 december 1944 och kraschade 400 meter från järnvägslanseringen.

Den Radioplan BTT, känd som RP-71 av företaget, som WS-426/2 av United States Navy, och som WS-462/2 av US Air Force, är en familj av måldrönare som produceras av Radioplane Company (senare en division av Northrop).
MQM-57 Falconer: A variant of the BTT designated the RP-71, also known as the SD-1 Observer and later redesignated MQM-57 Falconer, was built for battlefield reconnaissance, with first flight in 1955. The Falconer was similar in appearance to the Shelduck, but had a slightly longer and stockier fuselage. It had an autopilot system with radio-control backup, and could carry cameras, as well as illumination flares for night reconnaissance. Equipment was loaded through a hump in the back between the wings. Although it only had an endurance of a little more than a half-hour, making it of limited use, about 1,500 Falconers were built and the type was used internationally with several different military forces, remaining in service into the 1970s. Over 73,000 BTT targets were built in all, and the type was used by at least 18 nations. Some may still be lingering in service.

Intelligent val, en experimentell handvevad ubåt, byggdes på design av Scovel Sturgis Merriam 1863 av Augustus Price och Cornelius Scranton Bushnell. År 1864 bildades American Submarine Company som tog över Bushnells och Price intressen och det följde år av tvister om ägandet av fartyget. När titeln fastställdes av en domstol såldes ubåten den 29 oktober 1869 genom ett kontrakt som gjordes av ägaren Oliver Halstead och marinministern George M. Robeson till United States Navy Department, med det mesta av priset som skulle betalas efter framgångsrika försök. I september 1872 hölls den första rättegången och misslyckades, varpå departementet vägrade ytterligare betalningar och övergav projektet.

The Aichi D3A was the first Japanese aircraft to bomb American targets in the war, commencing with Pearl Harbor and U.S. bases in the Philippines, such as Clark Air Force Base. Vals sank more Allied warships than any other Axis aircraf.

Den Convair F2Y sjöpil was an American seaplane fighter aircraft that rode on twin hydro-skis during takeoff and landing. It flew only as a prototype, and never entered mass production. It is the only seaplane to have exceeded the speed of sound. It was created in the 1950s, to overcome the problems with supersonic planes taking off and landing on aircraft carriers. The program was canceled after a series of unsatisfactory results and a tragic accident on 4 November 1954, when test pilot Charles E. Richbourg was killed when the Sea Dart he was piloting disintegrated in midair. The four surviving planes were retired in 1957, but some were kept in reserve until 1962.

Den Fokker D.XXI fighter was designed in 1935 by Dutch aircraft manufacturer Fokker in response to requirements laid out by the Royal Netherlands East Indies Army Air Force (Militaire Luchtvaart van het Koninklijk Nederlands-Indisch Leger, ML-KNIL). The D.XXI was designed as an inexpensive, rugged, and compact fighter aircraft that would possess respectable performance for its era. Entering operational use in the early years of the Second World War, it provided yeoman service for both the Luchtvaartafdeling (Dutch Army Aviation Group) and the Finnish Air Force. Additionally, a few examples were constructed by the El Carmolí factory before it fell into rebel hands during the Spanish Civil War. Following the invasion and occupation of the Netherlands in May 1940, several captured Dutch D.XXIs were subsequently placed into service with the Luftwaffe.

USS Albacore (AGSS-569) was a unique research submarine that pioneered the American version of the teardrop hull form (sometimes referred to as an “Albacore hull”) of modern submarines. The revolutionary design was derived from extensive hydrodynamic and wind tunnel testing, with an emphasis on underwater speed and maneuverability. She was the third ship of the United States Navy to be named for the albacore. Her keel was laid down on 15 March 1952 by the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard of Kittery, Maine. She was launched on 1 August 1953, sponsored by Mrs. J. E. Jowers, the widow of Chief Motor Machinist’s Mate Arthur L. Stanton, lost with the second Albacore (SS-218), and commissioned on 6 December 1953 with Lieutenant Commander Kenneth C. Gummerson in command
