F-16 wearing the colours of the Norwegian-manned No.331 Squadron RAF, which flew Hurricanes and Spitfires during the Second World War.

They'll be for parts use most likely, as Norway only has about a dozen unairworthy examples left in store after selling the good ones to Romania. The ones left had been deemed by Norway to be not worth fixing and would be scrapped or reclaimed for parts. Could be used for ground training of Ukraine engineers of course.
