Photo Comment

Delivered in 1956 to the Italian Air Force, it operated with the 3rd Aerobrigata, that was the former 3° Stormo. Sources quote that this was the last Thunderflash that made a flight in Italy before being withdrawn from use. It was initialli preserved at Ghedi AB; then for some years in Bresso (Milano), where it was nicely restored; finally at Cameri AB.
