Seven of these will be sent to Air National Guard units in California, Massachusetts, and Louisiana. Four will be retired to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base and the remaining three will be kept by 173rd Fighter Wing.

The jets are currently kept in ‘‘Code-1’ status, a maintenance shorthand for a jet that is ready to fly immediately.
