This is a repaint of the awesome Milviz F-4J Phantom II representing F-4J Bu. No. 153783 of Air Test and Evaluation Squadron Four (VX-4) based at Point Mugu NAS, California during the 1970's. The black paint scheme was applied as an experimental night 'camouflage' scheme, and the 'Playboy' bunny was applied to the vertical tail to emulate the scheme carried by Hugh Heffner's private DC-9. The bunny was subsequently applied to all the squadron's aircraft till VX-4 was disestablished in 1994. Subsequent to its service with VX-4, 3783 was refurbished and upgraded and sold to the RAF as ZE352 (G) of 74 Squadron at RAF Coltishall. Broken up in 1991, the front fuselage was purchased privately and is believed to still exist.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
