Posted on January 29, 2022 by alert5

The 8th Fighter Wing has completed its project to paint four F-16s with heritage tail flashes. The final aircraft represents the 8th Operations Group.

Airmen assigned to the 8th Maintenance Squadron aircraft structural maintenance shop work together to apply stencils for the tail flash of the 8th Operations Group’s F-16 Fighting Falcon at Kunsan Air Base, Republic of Korea, Jan. 22, 2022.
