Delivered new in 1984 to VFA-25, where it was assigned until 1990. Transferred to the Blue Angels, where it stayed until it was retired in 2004. Transferred to the National Naval Aviation Museum remaining in Blue Angel markings. In 2016 it was repainted in its original VFA-25 tactical paint scheme.
