The Chilean Air Force received 40 B-26s between 1954 and 1960. Based in Antofagasta, they remained in active service until 1972. This B-26 was formally with the USAF as 44-34741, carrying the registration 848 with the FACh. However, she is displayed at the National Air & Space Museum with reg. 840.
