Posted: Mon Jul 03, 2023 6:19 pmThanks for looking sir. That airframe had the callsign "showtime 100".
The model isn't entirely correct, being an F-4S... the paint is semi-historical. The real one (F-4J) of course was made famous on May 10, 1972, by Lt. Randy “Duke” Cunningham over Vietnam.
Im sure you know the whole story
