 The ROKAF uses the A-37 in the Close-Air-Support and FAC roles. They are finished in SEA schemes and some of the aircraft prior to their retirement are used in the Black Eagles air demonstration team. The Black Eagles use customized A-37s, which have their outside antennas deleted and the right cockpit is replaced by a smoke discharger tank. These pictures are from the Seoul Airshow 96'.

 This is a ROKAF A-37B. There is little differences between USAF A-37, because in fact these aircraft were ex_USAF machines.
