Notes:

The aircraft was assigned to 509 BMW Pease AFB New Hampshire in 1980. Since de-commissioning, the airframe was purchased by the RAAF to provide structural components for the repair of an RAAF F-111. The Nose/Crew Module was then used as a RAAF Reserves Display Item. Since Nov 2014, the Nose of 68-0246 has been displayed at the RAN Museum of Flight, HMAS Albatross
