Delivered i July 1982 and withdrawn from service in January 2022. In 2007 the aircraft was seen with "5000 FHRS, Bodo MAS, Feb 2007" markings at Red Flag. The Fighting Falcon is here equipped with a training IRIS-T air-to-air missile (InfraRed Imaging System Tail/Thrust Vector-Controlled). The Norwegians were quite secretive with the medium-range infrared homing air-to-air missile at the time of the picture.
