187th Fighter Wing , 2012 -
Felix "The Cat" Gordon gave me this jet back. From 2005-10 served as the Wing jet sporting the VIPER tail flash. It went to depot and was thier for 2 and 1/2 years due to a bulk head that was damaged during a modification. The assigned pilot will be Major Prokop "Chester" and it will have its bomb marking and a new nose art in the future!
