Photo Comment

This unmarked Falcon shows an unusual presentation of the USAF serial. It flew from 1984 onwards with SW, HL tailcodes before it was transferred to the 194th Fighter Interceptor Squadron California ANG at Fresno in Aug'89. After its career with this squadron it served the 111th FIS/FS and was stored at AMARC with inventory code FG0393 from 04 Nov'96. It was transferred to Ogden ALC in '02, modified to ADF, delivered to Italy's Aeronautica Militare as MM7262 on 6 Jun'03. It returned to the US after the leasecontract ended and was stored again at AMARG. It entered the QF-16 programme in Jan'21.
