Anyone who worked on the F-111 may remember some of these panels. This page was severely damaged. It had been ripped in half, then the 35 year old scotch tape had fallen off and left a terrible looking brown diagonal. It took me hours to restore.

A visit to Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, Arizona is a must for all aircraft enthusiasts as this is the home of AMARC (Aircraft Maintenance And Regeneration Center). The aircraft re-cycling division of the USA forces. The great aircraft boneyard in the Arizona desert holds around 4400 airframes with a book value of $23.6BN . Large numbers of KC-135, Lockheed Orion, C-130 Hercules and F-16 Fighting Falcons are currently stored here (2020); but there are plenty of more interesting aircraft too. In some cases, like the Delta Dart and Canberra, just one example is in store. There is currently a major programme to convert redundant F16C Fighting Falcons into Drone aircraft. Boeing has a contract to convert several hundred at a cost of $21M each - only for them to be shot down by modern weapons packages as part of F22 Lightning II training for pilots.

F-16s in museums are currently fairly limited, and Italy and Norway are so far the only nations to have retired the aircraft.
But Italy is a special case as they only had the type for a few years as deliveries of the Eurofighter Typhoon were substantially delayed. Most were returned to the United States in 2012, but a few remained in Italy.
This one, MM7251 also bears its US serial of 81-0180 at the base of its fin..
It is displayed inside the new hangar at the air force museum at Vigna di Valle.
