Hmm. I thought Belgian FL-005 was 22-5819? Perhaps FL-005 = 22-5845?
Either 22-5845 or 22-5815.
Greets,
In that case the Scramble DB is not correct as they have RNeth.AF F-35's F038-F040 as 5843 - 5845.
Regards.

That was not a first flight.
I have no first flight date for this one but on the 24th of Feb it already used a Strike callsign meaning it was in its acceptance flight schedule. Otherwise known as DCMA flight.

AF-455, 22-5792/TX, 301 FW, 457 FS delivered. Not a 100% positive if it was today (Mar 7, 2025) but it did use the delivery callsign of the 457th of "Mustang 11."
