The Isreali scheme would be nice as they have had a lot of success with this fighter plane against Migs..

Just an FYI the Spannish F4C/D aircraft are painted in the standard USAF tri colour scheme:

So this would be a no brainer as a paint option if the first AT scheme is a Vietnam era USAF aircraft.

Also I think (somebody tell me if I'm wrong) the only other C/D operator was South Korea, (yes I know it has been said that the tooling is modular to enable other variants to be made).

With not much effort the C/D may be able to pass for a Blue Angels F-4J, however these aircraft would have the narrow cord navy wheels and hence no wing or gear door bulges.

German, hands down. Although a Japanese one would be pretty Sharp as well. But to be completely honest, I am going to buy one regardless of what paint scheme they choose. The Phantom is one of my favorite jets, along with the F-104, F-14, and F-111 (hint, hint) :wink:

Blue Angels, just because the first plane toy I ever remember getting was a Blue Angel F4 from a package of Life Savers.

Now that 21st Century is going to make and E model Phantom, I would love to see it in the Thunderbirds paint scheme. :D

Showtime 100 - period. Whether you like the guy or not it has an incredible history and the paint scheme looks sharp. The others look nice as well but for a complete package it's Duke's plane for sure.

Something wrong with a USMC scheme?

VMFA-323 served in Vietnam almost continuously from December 1965 until March 1969, flying over 17,000 combat sorties from Da Nang and Chu Lai in support of I Corps ground operations and against targets north of the demiliterized zone.

I think 21c should do their first F-4 in the QF-4 scheme, send 30 to each Wal Mart in the country, then wait a year and release a better paintscheme :lol:

VMFA-333 had the only claimed air-to-air victory by a USMC squadron. F-4J in '72. They were based on the USS America.
