McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom 2 (57-6907)

Keepnum flying..

Specifically, an RF-4C... you can tell it’s a Recon bird by the side-facing glass for the Left Split Camera.

Maybe the paint job (film strip markings) is a tip-off, also?

IMHO the F-4 is the most bad-a$$ looking fighter of all time. The creativity of the paint job on this one is incredible. That must be vinyl?? Will that stuff stay on this airframe in supersonic flight? I guess it will or they wouldn't use it, right?

Does the JASDF still use Phantoms or are these historical photos? Either way, awesome plane!
