F-104nut Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 (edited) Hello all and long time no see. I was on here three years ago and left. I left cause i had lost interest in a bunch of projects. So while at work i met a former Rio whom flew with the F-4 Sundowners and decided to start on the F-4J. Here is where i am at tonight. Not sure of markings yet Brian Edited May 28, 2017 by F-104nut Shaka HI, Gazzas, A-10LOADER and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 You could go with VMFA 232: https://www.vietnam.ttu.edu/virtualarchive/items.php?item=1201089029 click on the pdf icon to open the file, scroll down a bit to see a photo-copied picture showing one with a load of twin tube Zunis, 4 Mk-82 (2 with fuze extenders) and Rockeyes on the outboard MERs.
