Wartime History
Severely damaged around cockpit and mid-fuselage by a "parafrag" bomb at Babo Airfield, and abandoned.

Recovery
The Lilly was moved from Babo (around during the mid 1980's) to Biak by the Indonesian military, then abandoned there due to lack of funds.  On a recommendation from Bruce Fenstermaker, iit was shipped, back to Jakarta and then to the Indoesian Air Force Museum along with several other former Babo wrecks for inclusion in their collection.

Storage & Display
Today, the Lily is unrestored in storage at Indoesian Air Force Museum.
