Note: Originally, both aircraft were not deployed with the 75th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron to Bagram AB. They are two of four replacements to fulfill some gaps because of current A-10 groundings. According to the Scramble Messageboard, they arrived at Lajes Field on October 22, and at Sigonella as Trend 41 flight on October 29.
