Photo Comment

An F-4E in a non-standard color scheme. The Spook was assigned to the 704th Tactical Fighter Squadron as part of the Air Force Reserve. The squadron was inactivated on 27 September 1996, when the USAF operations at Bergstrom ended. This nice looking Phantom was retired to AMARC on 18 January 1990 and received inventory code FP429. The F-4E was removed from storage on 04 April 2008 and entered the QF-4E program via BAE Systems, Mojave (CA) and received code AF-351. It was withdrawn from use with the 82nd ATRS/Det.1 on 20 December 2016.
