ex Atsugi based UC-12F, noticed on your photo carries no tail code.
Wonder if this will be European based

Re: US Navy UC-12 14/11
Any idea what time the Swiss headed out in the evening yesterday? I'd like to take my wee lad down to see them and the evening slot is the only time we could maybe manage. I saw blinking strobes and landing lights across the Firth last night on my way home at around 18:30 and presumed it was them, but wasn't sure if that was them returning from the afternoon sortie or the evening one.
Re: US Navy UC-12 14/11
Departed approx 1730ish for the evening sortie.
Cheers Niall

It is still Atsugi based. It is going to CONUS for maintenance.
