Can anyone ID this aircraft?

The small jets are F105s... what is the larger one? B47? But the engines look wrong?

The F-105 was not a particularly small aeroplane.

It will be an EB-66B which were used to provide ECM protection for the Thuds, until the arrival in Vietnam of the EF-105 Wild Weasel Thunderchief's which only flew their first mission in Vietnam the week before this photo was taken.

The B-66 was a bit of an old bus.

But I've always liked it.

Hi,

You can also use a website called "TinEye" to search using an image.

There used to be a squadron of RB-66 based at my local airfield, RAF Chelveston.
