Photo Comment

This Thunderstreak was modified to look more like a Mirage V to accommodate firecrew training. They even gave it an existing Mirage serial (BA-07, crashed in 1978) but it really is FU-185. The badge on the tail is from 10W. The aircraft is now on display at a museum in Peer, and is being restored to a real Streak.
