With credit to Live-military-modeS.eu, they reported the following :
AE135C 162939 --- 2009-01-30 10:02 EA-6B United States USNAVY Valletta, MT 2009-01-30 09:02:18
So this might be a candidate for Lajes or Sigonella.

Hi,

Currently on Lajes are 6 F-16's from Hill airbase. They landed yesterday afternoon. Most probably the routing will be to the east.....

Departure foreseen on tomorrow morning.
