37th TAS/435th TAW based at Rhein-Main AB. The unit had several aircraft in this scheme.

I saw a few pictures of an Aviano F-16 on a post maintenance testflight from Charleroi in the HG5 dark scheme with light grey tailcode and serial on Facebook today.

The MC-130H is still in service, as is the AC-130W.

The tape would stay there until the aircraft used its guns. If you want to model an aircraft that just came back and had used its guns there would be some holes in the tape indeed. As far as I know it would normally be reapplied after the sortie when time permitted.

The gun ports were usually covered in protective tape, like this:

As you probably expected, the construction numbers for the 4 you saw are NM028, NM032, NM035 and NM036.

14-03028, 14-03032, 14-03035, 14-03036. All are E-models.

Both Rafale and Eurofighter productionlines are still open. The 500th Typhoon was recently delivered and I remember reading the orders at that time were for 599 aircraft.
