Photo Comment

The 1st Netherlands Air Task Force International Security Assistance Force 1 (NLD) ATF ISAF used F-16AMs over Afghanistan during their operations against the Taliban. Here J-868 is rolling out of its shelter and heading for the runway. FMS serial 81-0868 was built by Fokker (line number L-183) and delivered to the KLu on 1 October 1984. It was sold to Jordan as 241 and departed the Netherlands in February 2018.
