Photos Taken From Drones Show The World As It's Rarely Seen

8. The Boneyard

It’s no secret that the U.S. invests heavily in military equipment, but have you ever wondered what happens to these machines once they’ve served their purpose? Welcome to "The Boneyard" in Tucson, Arizona, a vast resting place for nearly 4,000 military planes. Known officially as the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG), this facility is the largest of its kind in the world

Since its establishment at the end of World War II, it has become a critical hub for storing, maintaining, and repurposing retired planes. But it’s not just a graveyard; many aircraft here are preserved for potential future use, while others are stripped for parts or recycled. Have you ever considered the magnitude of this operation? The Boneyard spans 2,600 acres, offering a fascinating glimpse into the lifecycle of military technology. For aviation lovers and history aficionados alike, it is a must-know component of American legacy.
