Here's a Torrejon-based F-16A I photographed at Ramstein AB, Germany in
1983. This airplane was featured on a Superscale decal sheet in 1/48th
scale, but unfortunately the "El Cazador" markings were more like 1/32
scale, much too large.

Spain?

Yep, you're right on the money. TJ was the 401 Tactical Fighter Wing out of
Torrejon AB, Madrid, Spain. This jet belonged to the 712 TFS.
Here's a couple more photos of the markings on the jet.
