Painted up as a warbird but not entirely clear to what airplane the markings are a tribute. Two USAF serials are candidates: A-7D 72-0180 and F-4F 72-1180. However, tail code TY is for Tyndall AFB (FL) where no A-7s were based, and the Phantom was a Luftwaffe machine, only operating in the US from Holloman AFB (NM) with code HO. Still nice though!
