Most probably this is former Polish Air Force serial 917 which is preserved since 1999 at Birmingham (AL) since 1999. That Lim-2 was a former stored aircraft at AMARC (1993). The fuselage is here seen at Reno-Steadfield in 1989. Some other likewise Lim-2 were used by the Defense Test & Evaluation Agency, Kirtland AFB (NM) before they went into storage. Is anyone able to confirm this?

This FY1989 Tomcat, the 15th built F-14D, was delivered to the US Navy on 24 March 1991, so it was only some four months in use when this picture was made. It served VF-124 up to 1993 when it was transferred to VF-11, and later to VF-31 and VF-2 and VF-101 before it was stricken and sadly scrapped at Oceana on 22 September 2005.

This former Polish Air Force Lim-2 was sold to the USA as N629BM and was registered as such on 6 March 1987. The registration was not carried. The aircraft was pictured at Reno-Steadfield in August 1989 and still carried its original Polish serial, but received Soviet stars on its tail and wings. Between March 1987 and August 2015 it was based at the War Eagles Air Museum, Santa Teresa Airport/Dona Ana County Airport, El Paso (NM). In late 2015 it was sold on 27 October 2016, the date the N629BM was cancelled. The aircraft was shipped to Russia in 2017. Since, the databases lost track on it.

This Lim-2 was used in this Iraqi Air Force colourscheme in the 1988 movie Steel the Sky. Unfortunately, it was fully unmarked. It possibly belonged to a shipment of fourteen former Polish Air Force Lim-2's that went thru the UK in 1986 to the USA, being serials 271, 638, 640, 817, 822, 1013, 1016, 1120, 1205, 1416, 1606, 1614, 1621, 1629. Anyone able to confirm its identity?

This former Polish Air Force Lim-2 was sold to the USA as N629BM and was registered as such on 6 March 1987. The registration was not carried. The aircraft was pictured at Reno-Steadfield in August 1989 and still carried its original Polish serial, but received Soviet stars on its tail and wings. Between March 1987 and August 2015 it was based at the War Eagles Air Museum, Santa Teresa Airport/Dona Ana County Airport, El Paso (NM). In late 2015 it was sold on 27 October 2016, the date the N629BM was cancelled. The aircraft was shipped to Russia in 2017. Since, the databases lost track on it.

This FY89 Super Tomcat was delivered to the US Navy in 31 May 1991, so pretty new when this photo was made. The Tomcat was retired after service with VF-31 and belonged to the very final operational Tomcats of the US Navy. It was stricken on 26 September 2006 and left NAS Oceana by low-loading trailer on 28 November 2006 for Hickory Regional Airport (NC) for preservation with the Sabre Society of North Carolina.
