MickeyThickey Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I must say, I'm getting a little burned out on JASDF special schemes... but I DO like that. Kinda like the F-2 with the yellow design on top. Does it actually signify anything, or it just a graphic design? Link to post Share on other sites
speedlimit Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I like it! Eric Link to post Share on other sites
Skull Leader Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I love it! But then, 8sq F-4EJKs have always been striking to the eye. I too wonder at the choice of yellow. Much like the 3sq anniversary jet a year or two ago, the yellow clashes pretty hard against the maritime blue paintscheme. I figure the color must be significant somehow.

EF Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 OK, how long 'til we see a Hasegawa rebox with those markings? 3 or 4 months? Link to post Share on other sites

Chappie Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Wow. The JASDF is probably the only guys who rival the RNLAF or BAF in speical paint schemes. Chappie Link to post Share on other sites
JackMan Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Thanks for that Tengu! I love the markings on that droptank. Link to post Share on other sites
tengu Posted August 8, 2007 Author Share Posted August 8, 2007 (edited) It seems that all the CHITOSE anniversary's schemes are yellow....... Actually, those markings are not related to CTS, but 3WG from Misawa AB. Besides that 8SQ F-4, the Wing has painted at least a 3SQ F-2 (seen below also at CTS show last Sunday) and a 3SQ T-4, all wearing basically the same markings 543 Markings conmemorating Chitose AB's 50th are here 873 (203SQ) 023 (ARW Chitose Detachment U-125) Here's a top view of 312 returning to Misawa AB after the airshow 312 Regards Edited August 8, 2007 by tengu Link to post Share on other sites
