This Hunter was delivered to the Flugwaffe on 12 November 1959 and was later converted to carry AGM-65 Maverick air-to-ground missiles. The aircraft was retired in August 1994 and stored at Meiringen. It departed this base on 4 October 1995 with destination Weelde (Belgium). It was escorted by two Belgian F-16's and two Alpha Jets. After landing it was stored at Weelde for preservation work for the Brussels museum. In 2019, it was decided to move the F58 to Beauvechain Air Base museum (Belgium).
