Photo Comment

Dutch Fokker built F-16A FMS serial 85-0135 was delivered to 315sq of the Royal Netherlands Air Force at Twente air base on 30 June 1987. It received a Mid-Life Update from June 1989. Here the F-16AM is seen, fully armed, with the 1(NLD) Air Task Force at Kandahar supporting the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). J-135 returned to homebase Volkel in late 2013. It was withdrawn from use at Volkel air base and eventually scrapped by late 2020.
