Jordan only slowly rebuilt its air force following the devastation of the Six-Day War. This included a long wait for F-104As on order from the USA, arriving in mid-1969. They were operated by No. 9 Squadron at H-5, far from the Israeli border. This example aircraft is armed with two AIM-9B missiles complementing the 20mm cannon. (Artwork by Tom Cooper)
