I believe the trade between the CAF and MOF has not been finalised, mainly because the USAF claims to retain title to the F-82 under the conditions of the 1966 'donation'. The plane itself hasn't flown since getting bent at HRL in 1987, and I have no idea where it currently is, if indeed it is in just one piece/place.
