To answer your questions,
A ?B-52, definitely The Stealth Fighter, and could that be (not sure) an ?SR-57 all together?!
B-52 from Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota, a B-1 from Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota, and a B-2 from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri taken outside Tampa Sadium at Super Bowl LV.

Some of the fighters were taken at the Cocoa Beach Airshow a few years back, and many were taken near MacDill AFB in Tampa.

The multiple jet ones. Some kind of multi capture as it flys along?
All of the photos of the planes around the moon are one of a series, sort of a very slow motion movie, at 4 frames per second. As soon as it is apparent the plane will be close to, or a direct hit, I will simply hold the shutter release and capture the approach and exit from the moon and then pick the most dramatic single shot. In the multi shots, I combined the series of shots to show what it really looked like in the viewfinder.

I have been a "photographer" since 1970 on the DMZ, in and around Panmunjom. I enjoy photographing any and everything.
