Alot of the F4's there were destined to become target practise drones, they paint the tails orange (just the pilots know they are drones) convert them here, then shoot them done over the desert.

Here a pic of a Blackbird with its Drone
I love this post Andy, spent some time at the Planes of Fame/Fighter Rebuilders Museum at Chino just before christmas this year, but didn't think any one on here would want to see the pics. I am into racers and Warbirds so the place was like heaven to me

thats a good pic Mike ! get your pics up from Chino, think they dave a sister museum near the grand canyon ??
The superfortress started life as B50 so you are correct but then modded to be a KB-50J tanker with the J standing for the fact is got 2 J47 turbo jets slung under, one last measure to try & give the old prop plane some more performance, never heard of it till I saw this one
Ill stick some more pics up soon
