Davis-Monthan AFB U.S. Navy Storage Summary - 1965

The table below details, in aircraft name order, the numbers of each U.S. Navy aircraft type current at Davis-Monthan AFB at the end of each month during 1965. The numbers for each type are further broken down into the status classifications under which the aircraft were being reported at that particular time. Very often the change of statuses from one classification to another can be seen by the numbers decreasing for one code, and an increasing in another.

These figures only show the aircraft which had not been stricken from the U.S. Navy inventory, therefore the actual numbers may have been higher due to aircraft which were being used for reclamation purposes and/or waiting to be disposed of. However, the numbers give a very good idea of the numbers and movement of U.S. Navy aircraft being transfered to Davis-Monthan for storage.
