Notes:

On display at JASDF Hamamatsu Kohokan. This is a 204th Kokutai F-104J that has been painted as one of 14 aircraft converted to UF-104J/JA standard, operated by the Iwo Jima Drone Operation Flight that was formed in 1992 as the Provisional Drone Operation Unit. The first two conversions could be flown manned or remotely, while the rest were pure drones. The first of these pilotless target drones was shot down in March 1995 and the last two years later. The unit marking is a scorpion on the red tail.
