South Korean preserved F-16

Found a listing of Korean serial numbers: Maybe this will narrow it down.
F-16C Block 32A (85-1576 to 85-1579)
F16D Block 32A (84-1370 to 84-1373)(85-1584 to 85-1585)
F-16C Block 32B (85-1580 to 85-1583)
F-16C Block 32C (86-1586 to 86-1589)
F-16C Block 32D (86-1590 to 86-1593)
F-16C Block 32E (86-1594 to 86-1597)
F-16C Block 32F (87-1653 TO 87-1656)
F-16C Block 32H (87-1657 to 87-1660)
F-16D Block 32Q (90-0938 to 90-0941)

Nope. It's an "A" model, the above is a list of "C" models.

There are no listings of the "A" model being sold to Korea.............only "C" & "D" models.

Maybe the aircraft was donated to the museum from the 35th TFS or another U.S. Air Force unit stationed in Korea ???????
The 35th flew the "A" model in Korea from 81 to 86 according to the database here on this site.

Edpop, I presume that will be the case yes. Most probably an ex-USAF example from the old days. Or simply a mock-up. That's the one million dollar question.

Greets,

I heard that is a mock-up from Lockheed Martin in 1994.

It was painted like this originally.

Hmm.
That blog article is dated 2010/08/15, and is categorised as August Journeys.
I presume that F-16 blue/red/white paint scheme is also dated 2010 August.
