RF-4C Phantom taxing with a centerline-mounted GD HIAC-1 LOROP 66 inch focal length, long-range, oblique photographic, high-acuity camera. In 1974-76 under a project called Peace Jack, a number of RF-4Cs were retrofitted to carry this camera, built originally for the RB-57F, in an extended nose. Several RF-4Cequipped with the LOROP camera flew reconnaissance missions along the North Korean and Eastern European borders. This one was at Osan Air Base Korea in 1982.
