A private company buy a military aircraft?
Wouldn’t be the first, nor the last.
Remember Blackwater’s Super Tucano, discussed in this thread?
ATAC’s Kfirs?

A Import the plane to US soil, (Customs: Anything to declare? Nothing 😉
Nothing indeed. It ain’t armed.
and registry the plane as civilian (¡¡¡A Tanker with refuelling pods installed!!!).
Since the owner company is civilian, what would you expect them to do?
Ask for a BuAir number? Or a tailcode and a fiscal year no.? Fly it unregistered?
For your information, there are MiG-23s, MiG-21s, L-29/39 with civilian registry in the US, so what’s the problem with a tanker?
and repaint the plane in military grey? And nobody question
I guess the FAA should round up all those MiG-21, L-29, L-39 private owners and interogate them why did they paint their planes in military colors.
They should use civilian pink.
While we’re at it, please be so kind to teach us how to differentiate between military grey and civilian grey.:rolleyes:
