Already verified by official USAF photos taken at Bagram are 81-0983 (first shot) and 81-0952 (second shot). The jet at left on the third shot looks to me like 81-0963 - also posted by Brian. There should be deployed at least ten Hogs or a full USAF strike fighter / attack aircraft EFS package of twelve jets (like F-16C units at Balad and F-15E units at Bagram).
According rule C.10. here and the rules here, the photos have been moved here!

Thanks for secured photo moving, Erik! And sorry! I´m new to "Scramble", comming from F-16.net. On our forums we can post pictures in every reply, they are only "downsized" by measurements to fit the website´s standard frame width. And in some cases a single picture says more as ten to hundred words... Now, your own "Scramble" rules are some more familiar to me and I will respect that for the future.

J.J., no worries. The rules on photos are complex here. This has grown over time due to users' wishes. We hope to implement a change some time this year, when hopefully switching to other software. Until then, we ask for everybody's co-operation, which is generally going very well.

Thx,
Erik

Today, the following brand-new USAF photo was released on the public website of the 455th AEW, Bagram AB, Afghanistan:

http://www.bagram.afnews.af.mil/shared/ ... 8L-032.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It looks to me more like A-10 81-0976/SP than 81-0978 (already posted by Brian). What´s your opinion? Anybody with falcon eyes?
