Greetings all,

I am curious to know roughly how many aircraft and aviation-designated personnel the Navy and Marine Corps have. I have searched around online, but haven't had any luck (I'm sure it's common knowledge and I just don't know where to look :)).

Can anyone point me in the direction of some sources?
 
I remember that somebody posted the specific numbers a while back, I think it was Brett, try a thread search.
 

I just want to fly one of them. That's all.

Lets see, no C-2's in there or any other type of C aircraft for the Navy. I think there are 36 C-2's........no wait, 35......I took care of one those :o No trainers listed and what is an F-18R?? I assume an F/A-18F? Are helo's considered aircraft?

Little point of contention the US flies the F/A-18A/B/C/D/E/F not the F-18. Finland and Switzerland fly the F-18C/D which lack the avionics to make it a proper ground attack aircraft, although the Swiss did later on retrofit their birds, but kept the designation.
