Summary

Description

Three U.S. Naval Reserve Grumman SF-1s assigned to Naval Reserve Air Base Anacostia, Washington D.C. (USA), in 1937. Note the Naval Air Resereve insignia on the fuselage forward of the cockpit.

Notes: "The scout version of the Grumman FF-1 fighter, the SF-1 differed from its predecessor in reduced armament and an increased fuel capacity. Powered by a Wright R-1820-84, the SF-1 entered service in Spring 1934, and eventually served in six squadrons. Quickly outclassed by other designs, the SF-1s spent their remaining years in the hands of reserve pilots."
