This Fokker built Fightning Falcon (FMS serial 80-3642, with Fokker construction number L-157) was delivered to the Koninklijke Luchtmacht with on 19 January 1984. Through the years, it served most Dutch F-16 squadrons. Eventually, it was stored at Volkel in September 2019 and scrapped by October 2020. It is reported that the tailsection is saved. Here the Fighting Falcon is seen at the taxiway of Volkel, equipped with large fueltanks and a centerline Orpheus reconnaissance pod. It also has a rare pinguin zap on its tail section, thanks to the RAF Laarburch x-servicing.
