Former USAF serial 57-0496 was handed over from the Naval Weapons Test Center at Point Mugu to AVTEL at Mojave in 1989 for modifications. The aircraft was stricken from US Navy inventory on 6 June 2001. Eventually, the DC-130 was moved to the Weapons Survivability Lab at China Lake (CA) where it was last reported in early 2016.
