Both have arrived, Buno's 169622/06 & 169627 u/m.

BTW, F-35 169623 is now unmarked while it arrived two weeks ago with modex 07. So maybe not UDP related and new jets for VMFA-121 after all?

Good evening,

Ten F-35s arrived at Elmendorf AFB this morning as EMCEE 61-64, EMCEE 71-74 and EMCEE 81-82.
They are probably enroute to Japan.
