177th Fighter Wing F-16s

Here are some pictures of the 177th Fighter Wing's F-16s, taken from June 1988 up through 2005.

The first two pictures were taken in June, 1988, when the F-16A/B first came to the unit to replace the F-106s. The next picture was taken during a Family Day event, showing a F-16C Block 25, with the old markings.

The last two pictures were taken at McGuire AFB Open House, 2005, showing the new markings, with a red fin flash, New Jersey in white letters, and AC being the tail code.

The unit still flies the F-16C Block 25, taking part in Operation Noble Eagle, Operation Southern Watch, and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
