31262:

During a mission in the Persian Gulf this VF-142 aircraft lost its radome when the latching mechanism failed. During the departure the radome came in contact with the canopy and broke out the forward glass and shattered the windscreen.

The pilot suffered a broken right collarbone and glass in both eyes, but managed to bring the jet back to the ship for a perfect two wire landing.

The great thing about these pictures is that, not only we get to see the A-12 but we can also see the mysterious Area 51, or some bits of it.

31262:

It all began as a photoshoot for General Electric on June 8th 1966.

The F-104, flown by NASA Chief Test Pilot Joe Walker, who, previously had flown the X-15 twice to the edge of space, made contact with the Valkyrie’s left wing and after taking out a part of it plus the two vertical stabilizers it exploded leaving a uncontrollable Valkyrie to its destiny.

Both Joe Walker and the Vakyrie co-pilot, Carl Cross, died. Al White, the bomber’s pilot managed to eject to safety but not without sustaining serious injuries.
