Sole survivor of five ex JASDF F-104DJs that Taiwan obtained in Summer 1987. After storage in a Hualien mountain cave around the turn of the century, it was put on display 275m (900ft) to the northeast of this location initially, on the north bank of the Shuili River just east of the Route 16 bridge. Moved to the shown spot not long before the photo date, alongside F-5 5220 / 60490. In 2017, both were again moved, to Gukeng Township. The USAF-style data block gave the type as 'F-104/MAP' and the name is said to mean as much as 'Climb cloud no. 1'.
