Formerly with the 301TFW based at Carswell AFB, Texas she was withdrawn from use on 2 April 1991 and stored at AMARC. She was photographed on the TRACOR ramp at Mojave awaiting conversion to QF-4E full scale aerial target status. I'm not exactly sure of the date, but probably late 1992. She was destroyed on 17 Nov 1999 operating from Tyndall AFB, Florida.
