Built by FIAT Aviazione/Aeritalia as F-104G, delivered to the Aeronautica Militare in 1963, converted to RF-104G in 1977. It was eventually withdrawn from use in September 1993. It was transported for spare-parts to Istrana and by November 1996 to Verona-Villafranca. The fuselage was transported back to Istrana in 1997 while the tailsection remained at Verona for preservation. In early 2002, the whole aircraft was seen again at Istrana where it was preserved with the old maintenace hangar. In July 2012 its fuselage was seen in the Battle Damage Repair shelter at Istrana.
