EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the United States Navy's Boeing NKC-135A 55-3134 (MSN 17250), which is seen here at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base undergoing storage and disposal procedures around the turn of the millennium. Originally, this aircraft was converted from its original mode to a JKC-135A test aircraft in the late 1950s for participation in the Starfish nuclear test program, earning the moniker "King Crow I." From 1975 onwards, the NKC-135A served a vital role in training Navy crews as an airborne electronic threat simulator. With a rich history, this aircraft has made significant contributions to the realm of aviation and aeronautical transportation. The Boeing NKC-135A 55-3134 stands as a testament to the innovative spirit and technological advancements of the United States Navy and the aviation industry as a whole.
