Wrong Tail Number (verified)

Yup, F-16CG 88-0495. 'Was packed-n-crated and shipped to OO-ALC; rebuilt at 649 CLSS. I have one of the panels with SAM damage as a souvenir. 'Aircraft is now a wing (or squadron) flag ship in 388th FW.

Wrong Tail #

I'm about 100% positive this picture is actually the left intake of 88-0495, because I was there as part of 495's recovery team.

Even though this is an "electric" jet, it can still tae a lot of punishment. In fact, being an FBW aircraft probably helped.

This 4 TFS "Fightin Fuujin" aircraft was hit over Baghdad by an SA-3 (pilot's video and screaming flight lead confirm it). The jet took severe frag damage and was piloted by Capt Tim Bopp. He flew the severely damaged Viper all the way back to Dharhan, Saudi Arabia. The aircraft came back to Hill AFB UT in a crate.
