Photo Comment

This is an unmarked TA-4J in the process of being delivered to Israel. The only markings on the a/c are "TA-4J" and the USN Bureau Number, with the last three digits in larger numerals on the fin and drop tanks. With the Israeli Air Force this a/c was marked as 704. There was one other new TA-4J that was also delivered to the I.A.F. in November 1972. The a/c were painted in the Israeli camouflage scheme at the factory.
