Eglin museum F-100 plaque
A plaque in front of a U.S. Air Force F-100C Super Sabre at the Eglin Air Force Base Armament Museum on October 24, 2023, explains that the model and tail number depicted on the aircraft is not the “HUNS” real identity. The real tail number 54-1986 was last assigned to the 174th Fighter Squadron of the 185th Fighter Group, Iowa Air National Guard. The 174th flew tail number 986 as part of the 37th Tactical Fighter Group at Phu Cat air base during the Air National Guard unit’s year-long deployment to Vietnam from 1968 to 1969.
