USN F-4 Phantom VF-121 NAS Miramar 1966

Photo Description: A right side view photo of a United States Navy McDonnell F-4G Phantom II ( BuNo 150642 ) of Fighter Squadron ONE TWO ONE (VF-121) "Pacemakers" at Naval Air Station Miramar, California in 1966. This Phantom is one of the short-lived USN-F-4Gs, 12 were converted from F-4Bs with AN/ASW-12 two-way datalink communication system and approach power compensator which, coupled with the shipboard AN/SPN-10 radar and AN/USC-1 datalink allowed hands-off carrier landings. Note the camouflage. This F-4G came from VF-213 which had been deployed with Carrier Air Wing 11 (CVW-11) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CVA-63) to Vietnam from 19 October 1965 to 13 June 1966. The U.S. Navy experimented with aircraft camouflage and painted half of the aircraft of Attack Carrier Air Wing 11 (CVW-11) with dark green colours to blend in with the Vietnamese jungle. The results proved inconclusive for the U.S. Navy, whereas the U.S. Air Force concluded that the camouflage was effective. U.S. Navy planes would not be camouflaged until the 1980s. 150642 was converted back to an F-4B in October 1966 an again converted to an F-4N in October 1973.
