The North American OV-10 Bronco was a ground attack, reconnaissance and artillery spotter designed and built in the 60s, it's first flight was done on 17th July 1967 and the first exemple of service flew on 6th August 1967.
The Bronco was used by the USAF during the Vietnam War, where it was the most engaged but some also saw the war, for exemple, a Moroccan Bronco was shot down near of the Algerian border in January 1985. It's currently still used by some air forces which are the Colombian one, the Venezuelan one, the Filipino one, the Indonesian one and the Californian Departement of Fire.
This exemple is the OV-10B c/n 338-9, registered F-AZKM, built in 1969 (or 1971), it served in the Deutsch Luftwaffe with the code 99+24 until the 11th December 1991, when it arrived to the Musée de l'Aviation de Chasse de Montélimar, France, where it flew until few years ago with its original livery, now it flies with a desertic USMC livery. The F-AZKM is the only collector's Bronco flying in the world and the only airworthy exemple in Europe since the crash of the Duxford's IWM one on 10 june 2012.
