Although not evident from these photographs, the cab was equipped with a full roll cage and dual bucket seats.  Each seat had a full harness.  We were told that the NAS Commanding Officer had the honor of riding shotgun.

The three jet engines in full view.  The smaller cylinders located on either side house the parachutes.
