The Sikorsky CH-53 is a family of heavy-lift military helicopters produced by Sikorsky under the company designation S-65. The original version, the CH-53 'Sea Stallion', was developed for the United States Marine Corps and is also in service with Germany, Iran, Israel and Mexico. The United States Air Force also operated the type under the designation HH-53 'Super Jolly Green Giant' and MH-53 'Pave Low'. The CH-53 was later developed into an advanced version, the CH-53E 'Super Stallion'.

The Republic F-105 was a supersonic fighter bomber used by the United States Air Force most notably in the Vietnam war. Nicknamed the 'Thud' the Thunderchief was capable of Mach 2 at high altitude and was the largest single engined fighter employed by the USAF. The F-105 is also noted for being the only American aircraft to have been retired due to high attrition rates. Of the 833 produced 382 were lost in Vietnam leading to the conclusion that the Thud was no longer combat effective.

The Lavochkin S-75 Dvina is a soviet SAM (Surface Air Missile) system, built around a command guided missile able to reach high-altitudes. Deployed for the first time in 1957, it was the first system of that type to succeed (in 1959). Six months later, during the Cuba Missiles Crisis / Caribbean Crisis / October Crisis, the shootdown of a Lookheed U-2 made the system world-famous. For the West, it was known under the NATO code name SA-2 Guideline.

Approx 4600 launchers Lavochkin S-75 Dvina have been built.

The General Dynamics F-111 "Aardvark" was a medium-range interdictor and tactical strike aircraft that also fills the roles of strategic bomber, reconnaissance, and electronic warfare in its various versions. Developed in the 1960s by General Dynamics, it first entered service in 1967 with the United States Air Force. The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) also ordered the type and began operating F-111Cs in 1973. The F-111 pioneered several technologies for production aircraft, including variable-sweep wings, afterburning turbofan engines, and automated terrain-following radar for low-level, high-speed flight. Its design influenced later variable-sweep wing aircraft, and some of its advanced features have since become commonplace. USAF F-111 variants were retired in the 1990s with the F-111Fs retired in 1996 and EF-111s retired in 1998. The RAAF was the last operator of the F-111, with its aircraft serving until December 2010.
