AIR FORCE” was applied AFTER the jet left the North American factory and was in the standard USAF 45ج«جتهّجپ Insignia Blue lettering, and NOT the unique “curved” font used by North American? Therefore the U. S. AIR FORCE and the buzz number (FU-500) were in different type styles! The colorful red/white tail checkerboards and wingtip and fuselage striping make this an exceptionally eye-catching bird. Only 22 sets still available.
