Resting after the Atlantic crossing for the very first time. This first F-35A for the KLu, arrived in its maiden deployment at Leeuwarden on 23 May'16. F-001 (FMS 09-5008) took the skies for the first time on 6 Aug'12, and was delivered to the KLu, before the Dutch government decided for an F-35 order, on 25 Jul'13. It was assigned to the 31st Test and Evaluation Squadron at Eglin AFB (FL) and carried the (USAF) OT tailcode during its test program. After the 31st TES, the -35 was transferred to Edwards AFB (CA) where it joined the 323 Test Squadron. Currently assigned to 308th FS at Luke (AZ) This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
