Yup, YF-17 #1 got a paint job a few years ago, I believe to the "Paris Air Show" colors IIRC.
YF-17 #2 is at the US Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, FL.

Looks like a YF-17. Similar to the one at Torrance Airport with the Western Museum of Flight. How many total were made? Never seen one with the XF on the tails.

Rander, there were two YF-17s built; your photo is of the second. By the way - don't dispair - those snapshots can actually be cleaned up! (I used photoshop Elements 6).
