In the early 1950s Turkish Air Force (Türk Hava
Kuvvetleri) began receiving F-100 Super
Sabres and in 1972 when the USAF phased out their F-100 Super Sabres from their active service a large
number of aircraft went to ANG units, Denmark and Turkey.
Over the years the Turkish Air
Force (Türk Hava Kuvvetleri) received approximately 206 F-100D and F variants. In 1974
the Turkish F-100s saw heavy use during the conflict between Turkey and Greece over
the ownership of Cyprus. The last Turkish F-100D was
retired in 1982. This F-100D is ex-USAF 401ST TFW, # 56-3390 / 0-63390.
