XV466 K, adorned with the distinctive markings of No.56 Squadron, is seen here in its full glory as it soars through the clear blue sky. The Phantom's powerful engines generate an impressive contrail, adding a dynamic element to the image. The sleek and aerodynamic design of the Phantom is evident, with its distinctive delta wing and twin tail configuration.
