No, the first B of Lot 12 was 169680 (BF-95).
169702 wasn't the first C of Lot 11 either, that was 169631 (CF-36). It was the first of the additional 4 added to Lot 11.

Those Italians keep bugging us. Thought these were going to be AL-17 till AL-21 then and BL-07. How many A dn B-models of the Italians are included in Lots 12 and 13 then?

Ok, so there were no FY2017 LRIP 11 Congressional Aid Package B's?
