riffraff Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) While looking for some Aussie Mirage lll images I stumbled across this picture. Does anyone know the back story to it? Edited January 31, 2020 by riffraff Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trojan Thunder Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Looks like a Townsville bombing deployment, I have seen this photo a few times, it would have been in around 1978 according to chatter on a couple of RAAF Mirage Facebook groups.
