Germany to receive first F-35s in 2026 to rejuvenate air force
14-12-2022
Germany is set to receive the first batch of its F-35 fighter jets in 2026, though the initial eight units will remain stationed in the U.S. for training purposes, creating a tight schedule to build up more advanced air-defense capabilities before the aging Tornado models are retired in 2030.

I have no word as of yet unfortunately. As far as I know no one of the regulars was out that day. And I was out of the country. Once I get confirmation I will post it here.

It seems it indeed was BF-148, 170061.

Aviation Safety Network has updated their database today, and is claiming it was 170060, BF-148.
Probably a typo, as BF-148 doesn't match the BuNo. https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/302782
