Great repaint again Steve. The Sabre 52-5317, which is subject of this repaint, was the last Sabre to leave Soesterberg AB on 8 August 1956. There are some pictures from this departure and the aircraft had already been stripped form its squadron colours.

The first F-100C 6 Super Sabres would arrive at 15 August 1956.

Cheers,
Huub

Thanks Huub. And thank you for sharing this tidbit of history. For some reason I’ve been unable to find very much detail about the 32nd’s (or the 36th FDG) Sabre years.

I've just uploaded V2 of 32nd FDS Wolfhounds 525317 that adds the Wolfhounds badge to the froward left fuselage. No other changes were made. V2 is a complete texture set so if you have version 1 already installed
just copy/paste "F86_1_T.dds" from version 2 into your already installed "texture.32nd_FDS" folder and allow to overwrite.

This one from the 512th FDS will be uploaded in a couple days.

Thanks Huub. I used that one as one of my main references. I have a question for you or anyone who might know, what was the purpose of the tank pylon extensions?
