It carries MATS titles so worth uploading despite the poor quality. The USAF took over sole responsibility for MATS in 1958. Consequently this one was transferred to the USAF as 51-17661, then to the Republic of Korea Air Force in 1970. This photo was added on 18 August 2021, and has since been viewed 726 times. |
