The aircraft pictured above is a very rare, totally "clean" U-2S. In fact she is not even packing the weight of her normal matte black paint (that is rumored to have radar absorbing qualities). Flying the U-2S, with its powerful F-118 motor, in this absolutely stripped configuration must be a real thrill. Its huge wings, high thrust and almost no p...
Once again, here we have a totally clean Dragon Lady, albeit a trainer model known as the TU-2S. The stepped cockpits provide both the pilot in training and instructor as good of visibility as possible, a key feature when attempting to land the notoriously squirrely U-2.
Here we have a similarly configured TU-2S but painted in the U-2's signature flat black with red tail markings scheme. The "BB" on the tail code denotes that this aircraft is stationed at the U-2 fleet's master-base, Beale Air Force Base, in northern California.
This is a standard U-2S with "super-pods" attached underneath its wings. Super-pods are used for carrying many types of surveillance equipment, including various data-links, although they can also be totally empty. When in use, which in this picture they do not appear to be, they usually house the"Senior Glass" communications, signals, and electron...
Here we have the same U-2S that appeared in the last image, although in this image it is configured with a full Senior Glass installation, including the Senior Spear COMINT installation on the right super-pod, along with a massive antenna farm on the aircraft's belly, as well as the Senior Ruby electronic intelligence (radar emission) collection sy...
This U-2, once again the same aircraft as the one above, is configuration in a similar fashion as the last image with one major difference, it packs the ASARS-2 (Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar System) in its elongated nose cone. ASARS-2 consists of a pair of advanced electronically scanned array sideways-looking radar antennas mounted on each si...
Now we have a notably different U-2S configuration, once again on the same aircraft. The nose seen in this picture is also elongated but it does not have the cooling scoop as seen on the ASARS equipped U-2. Instead, this nosecone houses the SYERS (Senior Year Electro Optical Reconnaissance System). This camera system, the U-2's primary optical sens...
The U-2's amazing ability to be reconfigured at will, and the aircraft's proven reliability, is really what makes the long winged jet such a great value for the USAF, and why the RQ-4B Global Hawk, an aircraft that was supposed to replace the U-2 many years ago, has had trouble doing so until recently. As you can see in the picture above, this U-2 ...
Don't get that upset just yet, the U-2 will not disappear from the skies forever if the USAF get's its way! NASA operates a pair of U-2s, known as "ER-2s," for the high altitude airborne sciences role. These craft utilize the U-2s amazing high-altitude, long endurance capability, as well as the aircraft's multitude of sensor bays and pods to accomp...
