This is first-to-fly N22YF, originally equipped with YF-120 engines, but they were replaced with YF119 in USAF Museum.
YF-120 with its VABI still remains a touchy subject. |

Thanks flateric. I thought that may be the case as there doesn't seem to be any publically avaliable images of the F120 rear end.
The early F119 engine is quite a bit different to the production model, as this early model doesn't have the radial 'finger' like flameholders. I can see what looks likes a large central gutter/bluff body, with possible spray holes circumferencially placed?
