I thought that AS-03 was changed from 903 to 907?

Checked it with the IAF, that's a LM marking mistakes and it's not the first time (AS-03 was 903 and changed to 904)
The original Adir AS-30/949 (19-5556) arrived Israel on Sep 26, 2021 and the IAF changed it's marking
So it's confirmed AS-31 is 947, AS-32 is 949 and AS-33 is 951 just like your list above
I have AS-3 in my log as 903. Then 904 and potentially delivered as 907.
AS-4 as 904.
AS-5 as 905.
This data comes from a reliable source during flight test but obviously does not match the Scramble database today.

Also Aussie delivery of AU-43/46/47/48 as Aussie 1176 with support of KC-135 Reach 052. They are on their way to Hickam.
All four departed this evening from Honolulu to Guam with RCH051 (79-1946) and RCH052 (62-3566).

Then the question remains what are AS-29 and AS-30 since their serials have been 'moved up'? As far as we are certain that AS-28 is 945 as was confirmed earlier.
Greets,
They are all confirmed as is. The question now is what is the "new" tail number for AS-29 and AS-30?
Tally.
To add to the confusion. We got an update from the Fort Worth spotter community who photographed all four of those on February 11th stating that the serials are 19-5555/5556/5557 for 947/949/951????? Now it's getting crazy.
Clearly they are looking at historical photographs if they are quoting 19-5555 to 19-5557 as that would be correct for the ones that delivered in September.
The info posted by 'Tally' this week is correct so one has to assume that AS-29 and AS-30 has been re-serialled in Israel, or that AS-31, AS-32 and/or AS-33 will be re-serialled post delivery (insert hand over face emoticon here lol!)

They uploaded the new pictures 2 days ago. So no historical ones. But anyway. We 'go with the flow' and hopefully someones catches 19-5555/5556 in Israel with their new serials (and possibly also 19-5554 as we still 'miss' one spot there, unless some bird is serialled out-of-sequence).

Greets,
That is incorrect. I was there on the 10th and 11th and all three flew on both days. I only missed the 947 on the 11th but the pics I posted in the photo section clearly show 19-5557/947 and 19-5559/951.

Hi Bjorn,
The photog that posted photos on F-16.net the other day confirmed to me they were 5557/5558/5559. So the only questions remain what are the 947/5555 and 949/5556 delivered last year numbered at now?

Ok, perfect. Like I said, hopefully someone catches 5555/5556 in Israel with their new serials. Or even 5554 because that was 945 but with 19-5557 being 947 now, it means we only have one 'blind' spot '946' between 5554 and 5556 and we have 2 airframes. Unless one bird is serialled 'out-of-order' now or 5554 has been reserialled as well.
