Phantom II RF-4C CR12-51/12-60 of the Spanish Air
Force was formerly 65-0851 c/n 1352 of the
165 TRS/123 TRW Kentucky ANG and was sold to Spain on January 11, 1989. The
aircraft was assigned to
the 123 Escadron “Titane”.
When Spain switched from the F-4E to the F-18 they considered replacing the
RF-4Cs with Mirage F-1CRs but the deal was cancelled. The last RF-4C flew in 2002 and were
replaced by F-18As with a recce-pod attached making themE/F(R) -18A+.
