About to touch down on Runway 31 at Prestwick. Carrying US Navy serial 160211 and "star-and-bars" insignia, but on its delivery - new - to the Kuwait Air Force where it became 882. Accompanied on the delivery flight by two more new TA-4KU twin-seaters, 160214 to become Kuwait Air Force 885 and 160215 to become Kuwait Air Force 886. After retirement from active military service, put on static display in the Kuwait Air Force Museum at Kuwait International Airport, Kuwait City. This photo is copyright © David A.
