This is an F4EJ Kai of the 301st SQ based at Nyutabaru Air Base, painted for the 1992 JASDF Combat Skills Competition, with six aircraft given special paint jobs. The camouflage paintwork on these 301SQ aircraft was a gray cloud pattern to accommodate the cloudy airspace, as the JASDF Combat Skill Competition was held during Japan's long rainy season. The cloud pattern air superiority camouflage on each aircraft varied in its paint pattern. The first to be painted, and the one that was most faithful to the original pattern, was No. 437.
