In November 1956 two Fiat-built Model-221 aircraft were supplied to Germany for use as spares. This F-86K, (USAF 55-4881) is seen here in the markings of Jagdgeschwader 74 as based at Ahlhorn air base in 1961.
On display in the locally based aircraft static at the 1989 Point Mugu airshow, the only in-service F-86 Sabre that I have ever seen! Recorded as now stored at China Lake.
