Yes but that's a privately own foreign (relatively) modern fighter, in the US.

Go to the Pride Aircraft website for more pics and vids.  There are two of them, and they give me boners.

If you checked out the Redair site you will have seen they operate Mig29's which are also privately owned foreign modern fighters.

The 27s were forcibly sold to the USGovt when we met with the head maint guy out at Oshkosh. He was pissed and we had a good gripe on how our elected King and Chief was performing a service for us.
