I thought the F-104 was American.

Export fighters are a thing

But isn't the F-104 developed by Lockheed, an American defense contractor?

The countries Wikipedia lists as having used the F-104.

The Luftwaffe suffered the most casualties in F-104 accidents by far.
It wasnt exactly what you'd call easy to fly.

Its the green grey version and Americans don't paint their 104 with green grey, only Italians do that with their 104S.

This was because the F-104G was modified as a fighter-bomber. Trying to use a rocket with wingstubs meant as interceptor as ground attack aircraft was begging for trouble. This and pilots inexperienced with this kind of aircraft earned the F-104G the reputation as widowmaker. Later on the Starfighter was well liked by its pilots.

All markings on the shown Starfighter are in Italian. That too could be a hint.

Yes...the author certainly did not,and he/she,also specify it in the commentary re-posted here,meant to be accurate...however...
For Truth' s sake on one hand it is inspiring,cute ,positivel, funny,contemporary starring " Luce(Jubilee 2025 - Pilgrims of Hope - Christian Catholicism and Christian Ecumenism)",but on the other bigger hand it is erroneous since that Blessing is for " Christian(ref.context)Catholic ordained priest-only ",or at least " ONLY temporary and proper stand-ins such seminarian student-priests or deacons or an acolyte-deacons ONLY by lawfully-ecclesiastical-approved special dispensation ONLY during especially difficult and lacking period of events"could be willingly enabled to stand-in...
.Certainly no amount of "yeah she had all the paperwork" would have enabled her,and it would also be not enough for the previously quoted " temporary special dispensation cases for especially harsh times(for seminarian student-priests,deacons,acolyte-deacons).

..."Luce(Jubilee 2025) is,notwithstanding the TRUER and HIGHER VALUE and MERIT which can ONLY BE SEEN,KNOWN,JUDGED,APPLIED by GOD, whicwhich fundamentally the representation of "All Christian and Christian-like Pilgrims" so she ought to accompany and join with the Blessings and Prayers offered through the Consecrated Sacrament,Dignity,Ordination of a Lawfully Ordained Priest (Catholic Christian or Ecumenical)with Blessings and Prayers of a Pilgrim,of a Faithful,of Laity and minor consecrated.

Silly Danboorites! Not even fictional girls can Confer the Blessings of God Almighty! You have to go the the All-Boys Patriarchy School of HIGHER VALUE and MERIT to do that, so don't even joke about it!

Of all the places to stumble on a rant about who's allowed to bless stuff, with quotes that I'm guessing may have come straight from the Catechism of the Catholic Church ... I was not expecting it to be here.
