One of the JAWS test paint schemes. Experimented with in Europe in the early 80's but never adopted by the USAF. Dice or some of the others here could give you the whole run down. |

When the A-10 was ordered. The USAF ask for ten prototypes later this was changed to only six. These four were the last of the ten prototypes and became the first four production jets. |
