The aircraft on display is a J-6A that served with the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force. It was imported into the United States in the 1990s by the Military Aircraft Restoration Corporation. It was then displayed at the March Air Force Base Museum for several years. In 2004, the aircraft was loaned to Pima by AMARC for restoration and display. It was purchased by the Pima Air & Space Museum in 2015. The paint scheme represents those worn by F-6 fighters in the Egyptian Air Force around the year 2000.
