Heritage Phantoms
Heritage Phantoms
During its long career, the F-4 Phantom was subject to some wonderful paint schemes. This sheet features but six examples of these schemes, each of them honoring something unique. This sheet is sized for the Z-M F-4 kits and includes enough maintenance stencil decals to build two complete jets.
Options include:
1) F-4C 63-7437, 181st Tactical Fighter Group, Indiana Air National Guard, April 1985. This jet has nose art celebrating the 5,000 flight hour in Phantoms by a 181st pilot.
2) F-4C 63-7411, 188th Tactical Fighter Group, Arkansas Air National Guard, July 1988. This was the oldest F-4 in service at this point in its career.
