Photo Comment

With a repainted fin tip the squadron is hardly to identify, but the grey striping on the cockpit reveals that this Warthog belongs to the 78th TFS. After its UK deployment, this A-10 went to the 52nd FW at Spangdahlem from 1994 onwards. In April, the aircraft returned to CONUS and was assigned to the 355 FW at Davis Monthan (AZ). It was retired and stored at AMARG on 24 September 2013.
