Airplane Boneyard, Sonoran Desert, Tucson, Arizona, USA

This is the largest military aircraft graveyard in the word with over 3,000 planes left in the Sonoran Desert, just outside Tucson. We drove past this dump a few times but afraid there was no stopping on this fast road, not even a layby we could look from. So all videos are from a moving car, but you will get the idea. They are all left here in the desert as the climate prevents rust. At one time they allowed bus tours round but they stopped that with the onset of covid, and have never started the tours again. It really was a 'what the F***' moment !  The planes went as far as the eye could see, lines and lines of them.
