I am trying to find out some information about a HAF RF-4E that apparently had a bird strike at Kalamata around 27 March 2014. I can only find one report of this incident and it has very little detail. The aircraft is still at Kalamata and I wondered if anyone could ID the aircraft involved and any more detail on the incident. Apparently it is taking longer to repair than expected, but I cannot provide any more info myself I am afraid.

Hi Mike,

Still looking for the same. We saw it in May of this year.
1 correction as I think it is a F-4E (not RF). So far we are also struggling in finding more information.

According to the only report I can find it states RF-4, but I cannot be sure Erik

It's an F-4 from Andravida that doesn't need to be repaired but due to an ongoing investigation to the accident, needs to stays at Kalamata...

Rumors say that it performed a "splash & go" hitting the sea surface during a low flying sortie
