ex BuNo 160189 and former Kuwait Air Force A-4KU 810. The aircraft was sold to Brazil in 1999. It was reported in permanent storage from mid-2006 and since late 2015 the hot rod was withdrawn from service. From August 2020, the Skyhawk is preserved at the beachfront nearby its home base São Pedro da Aldeia.
