Martin RB-57A-MA
Canberra

This is the first RB-57A manufactured by Martin (S/N 52-1426). It was the reconnaissance version of the B-57A. The USAF received 67 RB-57As during 1953 and 1954, and the final active-duty RB-57A flew in 1958. It was replaced by the McDonnell RF-101A, but some Camberras flew until May 1971 with the Air National Guard.
