Built in 1979 by Fairchild by converting an early production A-10A (serial number 73-1664). Added a second cockpit for a Weapons System Officer (WSO) to handle navigation, target acquisition, and electronic countermeasures during night or bad weather operations. Program was canceled because new automated targeting pods and tech made a dedicated second crew member unnecessary. Taken by ANG unit at Davis-Monathan which used it for transition training, and added minimal flight controls. I was working at Ft. Huachuca at the time, and got two rides in it. Told that now it's preserved and displayed at the Flight Test Museum at Edwards.

Yep ... In 1955, the former Russian occupying force gifted four Yak-11c to the Austrian Air Force.
