109 and 113 are ex-USAF F-111As, 67-?109 & 67-?113. They were two of four ex-USAF jets bought as attrition replacements c.1982, (with 112 & 114).

113 reportedly dropped the final bomb by the USAF in Vietnam in 1973, hence the USAF interest in it, but NOT as a flying museum piece. It'll probably go on a pole at Nellis or in the museum at Wright Pat

Awesome that 132 is going back to Edinburgh where it spent so much time in the 80s and 90s.
