I share with you some pictures of rare versions of the first US operational night fighter. Does anyone know if the equipment and weapons tested were used in combat? The collection of photos can be viewed by visiting the link below:

One of the pics is a reccy bird, a F-15 I believe. Most look like testing of a RATO or JATO of some kind. I don't believe any were used by the Widow in combat.
