Struck by Thor's hammer?

This F-16B was delivered to the USAF in '83 and delivered to Shaw AFB 363rd TFW. It then served Homestaed AFB with the 309th TFS before it was transferred to the 194th Fighter Interceptor Squadron in May'89. From Mar'92, the unit lost its interceptor designation. Early '92, the dual was transferred to the 159th FS of the Florida ANG and in late '95 to the 111th FS of the Texas ANG. On 18 Oct'95 it was stored at AMARG with inventory code FG0336. It was transferred to Ogden ALC and modified for a sale to Jordan (as 235) in December 1997. It was then sold to Pakistan on 27 April 2014 as 14627.

This unmarked Falcon shows an unusual presentation of the USAF serial. It flew from 1984 onwards with SW, HL tailcodes before it was transferred to the 194th Fighter Interceptor Squadron California ANG at Fresno in Aug'89. After its career with this squadron it served the 111th FIS/FS and was stored at AMARC with inventory code FG0393 from 04 Nov'96. It was transferred to Ogden ALC in '02, modified to ADF, delivered to Italy's Aeronautica Militare as MM7262 on 6 Jun'03. It returned to the US after the leasecontract ended and was stored again at AMARG. It entered the QF-16 programme in Jan'21.
