DESCRIPTION
Air Power Series
Mitsubishi F-2A, 13-8508
JASDF 8th Hikotai "Black Panthers"
Tsuiki AB, Japan, 2018
The JASDF 8th Hikotai is based at Tsuiki AB on Kyushu Island along with its sister squadron 6th TFS. On November 25, 2018 Tsuiki AB held its annual open house air show. For this occasion the 8th TFS paint F-2A in a very eye-catching paint scheme. Since the 8th squadron name is "Black Panther" they decided to add an outline of a ferocious panther's head on the tail. The bright yellow panther is on a very dark background making the image really stand out.
