    Information given to the Air Heritage Museum from the NMUSAF said this plane few combat in Vietnam and was credited with two kills. No information was given as to dates. Possible dates are between assignment of the 4453rd CCTW and 1968, and between 1969 and 1974. Also, Forgotten Jets showed the plane was at NY ANG after MO ANG, but since the plane retains the MO ANG tail code, the MO ANG must have been the last active unit.
