58-0118 has departed for maintenance (and presumably replacement) on 06/12/2017 as "RCH142".
In theory, its replacement should be another MPRS-equipped machine - which is a pain as I don't need any of the 20 so equipped.
UPDATE:- Went initially to Fairchild AFB, Wa, then to OC-ALC at Tinker AFB, Ok on 07/12/2017.
