    A vintage U.S. military jet aircraft is parked on a tarmac, photographed from a low rear-quarter angle with the sun creating lens flare in the background. The aircraft displays USAF markings including a star-and-bar insignia on the fuselage and the tail number '27244' with a yellow tail band. The design is consistent with a North American F-86 Sabre or similar early jet-age fighter from the late 1940s to 1950s era.

    The swept wing photo reconnaissance version of the RF-84 Thunderflash dubbed “Sioux City Sue” is on the ramp in Sioux City, Iowa on October 11, 2013. The newly refurbished RF-84 was painted to depict the paint scheme from the late 1950’s when the 174th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron, Iowa Air National Guard flew photo reconnaissance missions with the RF-84. The moniker “Sioux City Sue” was adopted from the 1945 song of the same name. The aircraft will be put back on static display in Sioux City, Iowa. U.S. Air National Guard Photo by Master Sgt. Vincent De Groot
