A-7A 153228 had just been returned to VA-93 after having undergone maintenance at Atsugi which included stripping the aircraft and repainting it in the basic A-7 markings when this photo was taken. The squadron then will repaint all other markings and numbers, including the shark mouth on the intake. The "3228" on the vertical fin will also be painted over.
