Serial F-027 in take-off from Eindhoven air base during a remote operations exercise. The Cameri FACO (Italy) built F-027 (FMS serial20-5656) is seen here with a recent modification, a roofbox. Not for cargo, but the box is housing the dragchute. The Koninklijke Luchtmacht (KLu, Royal Netherlands Air Force) is the second Lightning II operator using such a trunk, following Norway. F-027 was delivered to the KLu on 31 August 2022. From that moment, up to the moment of this photo, 313sq at Volkel owned it.
