F-16 ‘006’, was one of the first pair that was modified to F-16V standard, once with 335M at Araxos, I now believe it’s on strength of 343M at Souda.

Great catch with M346’s
Interesting info, thank you.
First HAF M.346s I've seen, shame they went unidentified.

It wouldn't surprise me if some more return to Souda in a few days Paul? The HC-130J has returned this morning.
