An impressive view of one of Japan's unique, gun-nosed, recon Phantoms showing some "get-up-and-go". Notice that the EJ airframes in this scheme don't seem to have been upgraded to "Kai" standard.

The ROKAF have begun using some of their Blackhawks in the CSAR role (note the badge on the engine cowling).
I really like this dark blue scheme that the Koreans use on their Blackhawks too.

It was a huge treat for me to get to see one of these rare machines for the first time and to top it off, they taxied it right up to the crowd line then shut down.
