Well, I traded in my current favorite form of transportation today...  For a new ride (starting in August)...  To hopefully be upgraded at a later date to one of these...  The SVT will continue to serve as a suitable spare vehicle for the time being...

Is the top jet one of those trainer planes they use to let guys experience high-G manuevers?

Wow, that was a quick response... Yes, it's a T-37, the Air Force's primary training aircraft. Twin jet engines, fully aerobatic and built to spin.

What is the middle one that you will be flying? Looks like a C-12? My dad used to fly those while he was in the Navy, flew the P-3c before that. Talk about a beautiful plane!

I'll be doing my intermediate training at NAS Corpus Christi, TX. The middle one is a T-44 (basically a KingAir). They switch back and forth between those and TC-12's (pictured below), depending on which class you're in.  As for what type of C-130 I'll be flying and where, that all depends on how well I do during my training (crossing fingers for either slicks to Alaska or Germany, or spec ops as of now)
