This Sabca built Starfighter was withdrawn from use in July 1989. Started a new career as an instructional airframe at and was seen in very bad shape by May 1999. It's tailsection was then reported at Baarlo in the Netherlands in late 2000, then the aircraft was offered for sale in early 2004. Its fuselage was seen stored Kessel in the Netherlands, later the tail section joined the fuselage again in late 2007. Eventually, the whole was shipped to the USA and the F-104G is preserved as 26+44 at the Pima Air and Space museum since April 2023.

Quite newly arrived and in the museum storage yard - actually 26+30. Although painted in early German Navy F-104 livery, 26+44 was in fact an MBB-built WGAF aircraft

Actually 2630, now being restored as '2644' in German Navy colours. In the storage area here.
