A grey packed Cat flight line at Miramar. After VF-24, this Tomcat served VF-213, VF-1 and VF-111 before it went to Fleet Replacement Aviation Maintenance Personnel (FRAMP) at Miramar in 1995. It was then moved to Naval Air Depot Jacksonville (FL), overhauled and assigned to VF-211 by 1997 and later assigned to VF-41. This squadron said farewell to 161294, it was withdrawn from use in 2000, stored at NAS Oceana (VA) and eventually stricken and scrapped by early 2003.
