One of the most interesting planes they have is the YF-23A "Black Widow II" PAV-2.
It was the Northrop/McDonnell Douglas team's entry into the ATF (Advanced Tactical Fighter) competition. The four-way ATF competition pitted the Northrop/McDonnell Douglas YF-23A "Black Widow II" team against the Lockheed/Boeing/General Dynamics YF-22A "Lightning II" team. The Pratt & Whitney YF119 engine competed with the General Electric YF120 engine. At the end of the competition, the YF-22A "Lightning II" and the Pratt & Whitney YF119 engine were the winners.
They have made a great YouTube Video about the plane:
Some of the other planes exhibited are:
North American F-86 Sabre Jet
Northrop YF-17 "Cobra" (Prototype #1)
