Have you talked to the public affairs office for the Navy?  I bet you
could find which airframes were sold to the company in question.

If all else fails, you could file a FOIA request (Freedom of Information
Act) with the Navy requesting a list of all assets sold to that particular
company.  It might take a while, but if they have the data they have to
give it to you.  From there, you can go "Look, you bought TA-4's x, x and
x.  Your serial number is y.  I would like to know which of x, x or x I
have.  If they _still_ refuse, file a small claims action against them to
get the numbers you need.  It wouldn't cost you that much.

There is no logical or legal reason why they would withold the
information.
