Pictured over Springfield (OH) when the Dutch used the base for their F-16 training. J-369 (FMS serial 84-1369) was built by Fokker and delivered as F-16B Block 15 to the Koninklijke Luchtmacht on 4 March 1987. It was converted to F-16BM in a midlife update in Februry 1998 and was deployed to Springfield from April 2007. When the Dutch stopped their training in Ohio, the aircraft was transferred to the 148th FS at Tucson in January 2013. The US squadron is used by the KLu for F-16 training. J-369 was damaged when it struck a cable in Black Canyon (AZ). It survived the impact and was repaired.
