The RDAF operated 72 Super Sabres (48 F-100D and 24 F-100F), delivered between 1959 and 1974. The last were retired in 1982 when replaced by Draakens and F-16s. Already looking well worn, this one operated by 730 Esk was among 23 passed to the Turkish AF, as '1-779' This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
