| USN VX-30 "Bloodhounds"
Alltime Aircraft Roster |
This list includes older versions
of the unit, such as: NMC, PMTC, NAWC, & NWTSPM. This roster
is quite large due to the fact that this unit was in charge of
drones over the years. There's probably many drone aircraft still
missing from this list. VX-30 QF-4 & F-14 aircraft were retired
2004. The 'Earliest' column refers to the earliest evidence found
for the aircraft, ie: photo, registry, and so on. The 'Latest'
column refers to the latest evidence found. The dates do NOT refer
to the exact amount of time the aircraft were active. Note: Aircraft
rosters are by no means 100% accurate or complete. Much thanks
