107 Squadron (Israel)

The 107 Squadron of the Israeli Air Force, also known as the Knights of the Orange Tail, was formed to operate Supermarine Spitfires out of Ramat David Airbase in January of 1953. Although it was disbanded only a year later, it was recreated in the 1960s and today operates F-16I Sufa (Storm) fighters out of Hatzerim Airbase.
