Is that a scene from the Final Countdown II?
It’s a photo from some air show, AFAIK.
WRT modern military and time travel, for comparison, the Japanese manga and 2005 TV anime series Zipang
http://www.tbs.co.jp/anime-zipang/
is about a modern JMSDF destroyer, the DDH-182 JDS Mirai (Future), that time-travelled to WWII. I didn’t read the manga, and watched only the first episode.
*SPOILER ALERT*
The JDS Mirai departed Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, and was heading for Hawaii, USA, for an exercise, when she was transported to near the Battle of Midway. Her crew at first decided not to interfere and possibly save their ancestors, but eventually interacted with (the parallel) history.
Also, the Japanese 2005 live action movie Sengoku Jieitai 1549 (Warring States Self Defence Force 1549)
http://www.sengoku1549.com/pc/
is a re-make of the live action movie Sengoku Jieitai, based on the manga of the same title. I didn’t watch the movies, and once browsed through the manga.
*SPOILER ALERT*
The new movie has a slightly different plot, AFAIK, but the story is essentially about a composite JGSDF unit, with MBTs, IFVs, and attack heloes, are teleported to late 16th century Japan, when such Daimyou as Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu were fighting to unify Japan.
Other Japanese 2005 military movies include Boukoku no Aegis (JMSDF Kongou Class destroyer)

and Otokotachi no Yamato (IJN Yamato Class battleship),

but those don’t deal with time travel.
