This old F-16A, former USAF serial 90-0943, is also former AMARC with inventory code FG0001. It arrived there as a brand-new aircraft on 10 April 1992 after the USA embargoed its delivery to Pakistan (planned as serial 92-730). It was stored for some years, and then transferred to the US Navy as an adversary aircraft. It left storage on 9 January 2003 and was assigned to the Naval Strike Air Warfare Center (NSAWC) at NAS Fallon (NV). It was last seen operational in late 2022, fate?
