Hispano HA-1112A Buchon G-AWHE (c 67) was completed by Hispano Aviacion in November 1959 and was allocated the military serial C.4K-31. Its actual use within the Spanish Ejercito del Aire is currently unknown, although around 170 Buchons served with the 7 Grupo de Caza-Bombardo at one time or another. However, by the early 1960s the Buchon was in the twilight of its operational career. The arrival of the jet-powered F-86 Sabre relegated the Buchons to the role of gunnery trainers and the type was finally retired in 1964. The fleet was put out to grass at Tablada Air Base and news of their imminent scrapping reached the Colonels of the Confederate Air Force (CAF). The group travelled to Spain and purchased the four best examples - including C.4K-31 - for its rapidly growing fleet in Texas.
