100th FS F-16C & F-16D BAMA1 & 2 during our Red Tail Legacy Flight mission.

Although still carrying the markings of the 100th Fighter Squadron "Red Tails" of the Alabama ANG, the F-16 was assigned to the 120th FS of the Colorado ANG. The 100th FS was one of the Tuskegee Airmen squadrons during World War II, activated on 19 February 1942 at Tuskegee Army Air Field (AL). It was returned to duty in 2007 as a replacement of the Alabama ANG 160th FS so the state could honor the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen. This F-16 was retired by the 100th during the squadrons transition to F-35A. It was just assigned to the 120th and not repainted when deployed for Air Defender 2023.
