One of the few remaining F-4 Phantom II’s, performing at the 2008 Airpower over Hampthon Roads Airshow. The F-4 Phantom II is a twin engine, all weather, tactical fighter-bomber. It originally performed three tactical air roles: air superiority, interdiction and close-air support. The F-4 continues to serve in retirement as the QF-4 Aerial Target, an unmanned, high performance aerial target used for live air-to-air and surface-to-air missile tests.

Excellent shot Andy, I love this!!
Oh F-4…..sort of “history” of the 120 century…….:)))
Very nice capture Andy.
great !!!!
This is terrific,Andy,but using this brilliant machine for “target practice???”,they sure know how to waste taxpayers money.
I have stated before how appalled I am at these beauties being used as drones.
It makes me sick.
On a brighter note….Awesome shot Andy, well done.
lol
Stunning capture. I love this!!
Great shot Andy – they are so rare here in Europe now too, with Turkey being one of the remaining air forces to still operate them.
Heavy metal, sadly missed!
Nice Shot Andy!
Brilliant Andy!!! Look mom.. no hands!!!
