Hobbymaster 1/72nd scale HA19028 F-4E "Gunsmoke '89 Competition" 74-1040 "TX" ,704 TFS, Nellis AB, 1989. The F-4E variant was an improved version of the C/D with an elongated nose and compact radar. These two things made it possible to install a 20mm M61A1 6 barrel 640 round Vulcan gun pod in the nose. The F-4E was the most produced variant with 1387 aircraft being made over its 12 year production period. The "E" also equipped more air forces than any other variant of the Phantom II.

Gunsmoke (officially known as the Air Force Worldwide Gunnery Competition) was a biennial air-to-surface gunnery meet for conventional weapons, hosted by the United States Air Force. It was held beginning in 1949, excepting a few years. It has been succeeded by Hawgsmoke. The competition occurred during odd-numbered years, alternating with the William Tell competition, which occurs during even-numbered years.
