The first is a paper/card model with the pattern pasted onto Depron while the second is the last flights of the Phantom target drones before being replaced by F-16 target drones. Their future to be shot up as ground targets.

Aren't the Greeks still flying Phantoms?
I have many happy memories of them flying over extremely low on occasion as I was out and about as a yoof.

The septics have retired the aircraft from all (drone) duties as have the Greeks. The Japanese are in the process of retiring them to transition to the F-35 and the Iranians will fly them until sanctions cease or they just cannot convince them to fly. The video is the loss of all F-4's flying with the USAF.

I well remember being "buzzed" by both Phantoms and SEPECAT Jaguars on exercise as a young 'un. Not fun, even when you know they won't actually be shooting/bombing you .. .. ..
