- Commonly referred to as the “Boneyard,” the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., contains about 5,000 retired military aircraft throughout 2,600 acres. Crews at the Boneyard preserve aircraft for possible future use, pull aircraft parts to supply to the field, and perform depot-level maintenance and aircraft regeneration in support of Air Force operations.

Don't miss one of the few B-58 "Hustlers" left; America's first long-range supersonic fighter-bomber!! 🤩😍🥰❤️❤️❤️
This is the best video on the subject BY FAR.
I used to take my 7 year-old son out to this boneyard and the associated Pima Air Museum. HE LOVED IT!!!! ME TOO!!! One of the coolest places on earth if you're into aviation.🤩😍🥰❤️❤️❤️
I used to see it every day from the ammunition storage across the double fence. Back in 1983 when I was with the 355th Tactical Fighter Wing.
What a cool place i love how they can store something like that and then get them going again very cool
good job guys.
i should have applied for this when i got out of USMC in 2013
How many F14s are at the Boneyard and will they ever be reused for purposes?
Sad to see all those iconic great planes just sitting there .
Wishing I could obtain a small jet engine from there shipped to me
C'mon, cant I just buy the fuselage of a T38, F4 for my backyard.
Hmmm, if you are cut up the hulls . . . why does it matter where you store them? In truth some of the fleet could be reinstated to operation should the demand ever be required.
I am Sure you wouldn't want to fly in an Aircraft made in 1980, Would You?
@@Mujiboy I've flown cessnas built in the 60s and 70s. There are even some DC-3s that dropped paratroopers in WWII that are still flying cargo missions today
@@nczioox1116 yes well I am talking option wise, if you have the f22 with f35 and many more advanced aircrafts then you would prefer f35 technology over let’s say a harrier both can vtol but f35 is more advanced
Because you salvage parts before hulls are cut up. Back in the 80’s and 90’s B-52’s we’re chopped by treaty with the USSR.
Wonder if they still have any Cessna O-2A parts. Would love to get my hands on some original parts to put on mine to assist in the restoration. My O-2 came out of Pima in the early 90’s and was lost for years. Till I found her 3 years ago and started the restoration.
👍💪✌️🦅👏
say what you like if y9u ever maje it to the real armies head quarters for what ever reason it be the only exit isnt privided it tajes you as far as you donated my memories
4:30 I really feel the Ukraine air force could make good use of them A10's
I'm pretty sure Ukraine would like to cut back on the friendly fire so it'll probably be a no thanks from them
Very very informational much greatful 🙏🤲
Glad it was helpful!
Well Technically speaking the definition of a HUMAN hand IS JUST THAT.

Not bràin surgery
You knew.
I would love to see that. Amazing. When you think how many man hours went into each plane to keep it flying. Then to see them just laying here. Incredible.
That would be cool!
SINCE MAJORITY ARE MILITARY AIRCRAFT , THEN MOST LIKELY IT IS TARGETED BY THE CHINESE OR RUSSIAN ICBM IN THEIR CROSSHAIR .
I know it's a boneyard but do you think they could put up a taller fence around the base?
Maybe a g pain control with two security personnel with machine guns, would be a nice touch to discourage anyone from copying the older models and making a short leap to reverse engineering the newer model of the same, just asking🤔
