This sheet has another nice selection of aircraft ranging from the late 1950s until today. There are seven aircraft from six different units. They include a special scheme plane and a ‘furrier’.

FIRST OPTION IS AN F4D-1 SKYRAY FROM VF-74 ABOARD THE USS INTREPID IN 1974. THE SKYRAY HAD A SHORT OPERATIONAL LIFE, BUT WAS A GREAT INTERCEPTOR.

NEXT, FROM JULY 2017 IS THE LATEST AIR TO AIR VICTOR, AN F-18E FROM VFA-87. THIS AIRCRAFT WAS ABOARD THE USS GEORGE W. BUSH AND SHOT DOWN A SYRIAN SU-22.

FROM THE VIETNAM WAR IS A RELATIVELY WELL KNOWN F-4E, ‘HEY JUDE’. THIS 421ST TFS AIRCRAFT IS FROM 1971 AND IN THE USUAL SEA CAMO SCHEME.

Why not add an Su-22 to the mix? Here is a Syrian Air Force Su-22M4. This may or may not have been the plane shot down (probably not, but who knows?).

Our special scheme plane is an A-10C from the 107 FS, Michigan ANG in August of 2017. It is painted up in a pseudo-WWII scheme to celebrate the unit’s 100th Anniversary.

Finally, a pair of MC-130Hs. Both from the 7th SOS. One from 2008 and the other from 2013.
