87-0173 was painted for the Mountain home 50th Aniversery, While being painted she had a tail art and a eagle on the nose, When the 389th EFS "THUNDERBOLTS" depolyed to the middel east, 87-0173 was striped of her tail art but kept the eagle on the nose, they painted kill marks under the USAF logo and added CHECKMATE to the eagle on top. They kept her special USA style tail strip.
I have done my best to remake 87-0173 and try to being her to life!
