I noticed while reading this page. First, the USAF divested itself of the MC-12 years ago, as listed on the Beechcraft C-12 Huron page: "All aircraft were transferred to USSOCOM, US Army, and other US government agencies by 2015." Second, the USAF does not operate KC-130s. I believe this was meant to be MC-130, as the variants listed (H and P) are correct for the MC-130 (although it needs the W variant added) as well as the note about a J model forthcoming. Finally, if the intent of the "Variant" column is to show which variant of the basic aircraft in the "Aircraft" column is in use by the USAF, then the Bell TH-1 should swap the information currently in the "Variant" and "Aircraft" columns. I.e., the aircraft should be UH-1H and the variant should be TH-1H. 129.198.241.131 (talk) 22:08, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

aren't the numbers of each type of aircraft inaccurate to 68.147.204.76 (talk) 01:02, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As of now, the tables look disorganized. I think by using header cells and splitting aircraft into separate sections the table would look much neater. Examples would be different sections for combat aircraft, transports, and helicopters. OreganoLeaf (talk) 23:15, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The type propulsion has Propeller and Jet (along with helicopters) Wouldn't the use of Turboprop be appropriate for such aircraft as the C-130 variants and others? N9jig (talk) 21:20, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I tried my best to improve the lead. Curious if this should largely stay as is or be completely reworded. I think it's important to establish that there's no guarantee this information is accurate, but it seemed like the original paragraph gives the OODA Loop undue weight and I wasn't sure how to improve upon that.

Original lead: Active United States military aircraft is a list of military aircraft that are used by the United States military. For aircraft no longer in service, see the list of military aircraft of the United States.The numbers of specific aircraft listed in the following entries are estimates based on open source documents. These numbers are subject to sudden changes: (e.g., when F-35 block 4 with TR-3 is delivered en mass after software issues are resolved in the latter half of 2024).[1]

Of course, no nation can afford to give potential adversaries exact, temporally accurate information about their capabilities because of the existence of the OODA loop.

Edited lead: Active United States military aircraft is a list of military aircraft that are used by the United States military. For aircraft no longer in service, see the list of military aircraft of the United States. The numbers of specific aircraft listed in the following entries are estimates based on open source documents. These numbers are subject to sudden changes, and the accuracy of the information regarding the capabilities of active American military aircraft cannot be ascertained because of the existence of the OODA loop.

I don't see any reason why this list can't have a photo for each aircraft. Any objections? Schierbecker (talk) 00:43, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
