F-4J Phantoms, US Navy
The test squadrons based at Point Mugu are famous for their aircraft in special colours. A very popular aircraft was the all-black Phantom with the white Playboy bunny on its tail. Less known was the all-white example. Both (153783/XF-1 and 158350/XF-5) are visible on the above picture.
