Summary
Four Grumman F11F-1 Tiger fighters of fighter squadron VF-21 Mach Busters. Nearest to the camera are aircraft BuNos 141740 and 141745. On 1 July 1959 VF-21 was redesignated VA-43 Challengers and became a fleet replacement squadron with the tail code "AD". Note the obviously currently repainted letter "D" on the tail of aircraft BuNo 141740. VF-21 had had the tail code "AF" previously. Therefore the photo may have been taken around the time of the redesignation.
