EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the McDonnell Douglas C-9B Skytrain II, military registration number 160048-JT, belonging to the United States Navy's Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 52 (VR-52), based at Naval Air Station Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. The C-9B Skytrain II, with manufacturing serial number 47681 and DC-9-32-CF designation, is seen here in circa 2005. This aircraft, a versatile transport and logistics workhorse, was a derivative of the commercial DC-9 airliner, developed by McDonnell Douglas specifically for the United States military. The C-9B Skytrain II was an essential component of the Navy's fleet, capable of carrying passengers, cargo, and medical evacuees over long distances. Its distinctive livery, adorned with the VR-52 insignia, adds a touch of pride and identity to this remarkable machine. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of military aviation and the critical role the C-9B Skytrain II played in supporting the United States Navy's operations.
