This F-104 was built in 1959 and given the USAF serial 59-5016 prior to export. It joined the WGAF in 1960 as BB-382 and then was assigned the serial '2916' in 1968. After decomisiioning it was placed on display at the Blucher Kaserne (Blucher Barracks), Aurich, Lower Saxony and painted into these false markings. The frame is now on display in Zehdenick and the collection are happy to allow visitors but please always have the courtesy to ask at reception for permission to enter the site.
