The suspended Sea Harrier transforms machine into captive bird, the markings tattooing its surface evoking its namesake the Harrier Hawk. A Jaguar lies belly up on the floor, its posture suggestive of a submissive animal. Stripped and polished, its surface functions as a shifting mirror, exposing the audience to its own reactions. Harrier and Jaguar remain ambiguous objects implying both captured beast and fallen trophy.
[From the Tate website]
Both planes are de-commissioned fighter planes.
The Jaguar has been polished, the Harrier painted with feathers.
Sea Harrier.
This particular plane is BAe Sea Harrier ZE695.
The British Aerospace Sea Harrier is a naval VTOL/STOVL jet fighter, reconnaissance and attack aircraft, a development of the Hawker Siddeley Harrier. It first entered service with the Royal Navy in April 1980 as the Sea Harrier FRS1. The Sea Harrier was withdrawn from service in 2006 and the last remaining aircraft from 801 Naval Air Squadron were decommissioned on 29 March 2006.

The RCAF CF-18 Hornet demo during the 2023 Abbotsford Airshow. The Cf-18s are now due to be replaced by the new CF-35 Lightnings by 2027 making this years airshow one of the last few times that they'll be at Abbotsford. It'll be sad to see them go when they're finally retired.

SPAD stands for Société Pour L'Aviation et ses Dérivés, also Société Provisoire des Aéroplanes Deperdussin. If those French could only make up their mind. This was an excellent, sturdy fighter plane, but SPAD still went out of business in 1921.
Went to the front in late 1916. Some 5,000 built. 180 hp Hispano-Suiza engine, top speed 127 mph (203 km/h).
Two .303 machine guns.
This was an Army Air Corp trainer aircraft, BT-14, used for training US pilots. Here the museum simulates a bad landing
I took a shot of the two fake planes sitting on their stands at the 100th bomber group accross from Cleveland Hopkins airport and thought it would be fun to remove the stnds in photoshop and add some motion blurr to give them the effect of flying.

The 'N' in the squadron number denotes 'Night'. In those days there had to be different aircraft for different jobs. As Jo rightly points out, this one is really an electronic jammer version. The only reason I can suggest for its being painted in this scheme is that the paint gives better protection against the elements.
