EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the North American F-82E Twin Mustang 46-0262, proudly on display at the USAF History and Traditions Museum located at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. The F-82E, manufactured by North American Aviation, is a twin-engine, all-weather fighter interceptor that first entered service with the United States Air Force (USAF) in 1947. With its distinctive twin boom design and powerful engines, the Twin Mustang was a formidable addition to the USAF inventory. The F-82E in this image, bearing serial number 46-0262 and manufacturing serial number 144-38148, was assigned the buzz number FQ-262. The buzz number system was used by the USAF to identify aircraft during the 1950s and early 1960s. The Twin Mustang in the photograph is a testament to the rich aviation history of the USAF and serves as a reminder of the critical role this aircraft played during the post-World War II era. The North American F-82E Twin Mustang was retired from service in the late 1950s, making its presence in the USAF History and Traditions Museum a valuable and significant addition to the collection. This photograph, taken circa 1960, offers a glimpse into the past and highlights the importance of preserving the history and traditions of the United States Air Force.
