Delivered to the USAF as C-123B 56-4357. To the US Coast Guard as 4357 in 1958. Returned to the USAF as C-123B 56-4357 in 1972. Stored at Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ in 1975. Left in 1979 and converted to a C-123T with Allison T56-A-7 turbines for the Royal Thai Air Force and flew as such in 1980. The project was abandoned, it was never delivered and stored at Tucson. Civil registration N6828 was allocated but not used. It was later scrapped.
