Because the RC-135, the U-2, and none of the drones received F- (pre-1947) or R-series (post-1947) designations, which is what this template is for. One could potentially make a case for RQ- designated drones to go in the "Reconnaissance subtypes" section, but they are already in {{US unmanned aircraft}}.- The BushrangerOne ping only23:53, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
The dates aren't requirements, that's just me noting when the Reconnassiance designation prefix was changed from F- to R-. The RC-135's introduction date isn't relevant here - the fact it isn't an "R-" designated aircraft is. - The BushrangerOne ping only00:07, 22 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
