F-4G 69-0298
124th Fighter Group
190th Fighter Squadron
Boise, Idaho
April 20,1996
F-4G 69-0298 has the distinction of firing the final shot of a USAF F-4 in combat. It lobbed an AGM-88 at an Iraqi AAA radar site on June 29,1993, and wore its kill marking proudly on the left intake fixed ramp. It was one of the final four F-4Gs to depart Boise on 20 April, 1996, when it departed for AMARG and retirement at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona. It received the 'SCAT markings in honor of Robin Olds, who was in attendance at the ceremony marking the end of USAF F-4 operations. Likewise, it received the sharksmouth for the event. To model this jet as it appeared during its final Operation Provide Comfort deployment in December 1995, use the 'weasel mouth' shown on 69-0272 above, and leave off the SCAT marking. This jet had the one-piece windscreen modification; one of several flown by the Idaho Guardsmen.
