6 Squadron had an exchange with Ala 46 of the Spanish Air Force in March 1989. One of the Jaguars, XZ104/EE, was painted in desert pink and photos appeared in the June and July 1989 issues of Aircraft Illustrated.

The photo in the June issue of the magazine showed it carrying wing fuel tanks in the normal grey/green camouflage.
