Built as a C-12A and originally serialled 76-0167, this airframe has an interesting history, as in 1979 it was expelled by South Africa, after being accused for performing intelligence gathering. Reserialled to 76-3239 in due course and later converted to C-12C standard. Reported to have been assigned to the US Embassies in Buenos Aires (Argentina), Jakarta (Indonesia), Bangkok (Thailand) and since December 2018 based in Ankara, Turkey. From there it paid a short visit to exercise Anatolian Eagle 2023. This photo is copyright © Adrian Romang, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
