First delivered to VF-111 on 2 December 1978. After a long US Navy career, this Tomcat was withdrawn from use at its final homebase Point Mugu (CA) in September 1998. It then went to Camarilo (CA) for preservation and arrived at the Planes of Fame Museum, Yanks Air Museum, Chino (CA) in October 2002.
