I see she was based at RAF Lakenheath. I was stationed at nearby RAF Mildenhall at the time. I would be at the main Base Exchange at Lakenheath around dusk and see them take off with afterburners. It was pretty cool.They were being phased out by the F15 E's when I was leaving later in '92.
Great picture, however I do not believe this is a Raven Version.

This F-111 may have been converted to an EF-111, but that picture is defiantly not an EF-111.

That Lakenheath bird is a F-111F - the variant based there. EF-111s and F-111Es were based at RAF Upper Heyford.
Easy to confuse. All magnificent aircraft, but almost as noisy as F-4s.

I did not type any of that. What the hell is wrong with FlightAware? I put the serial, and that it was a F-111F at Nellis.WoW!

Just for fun, I checked Joe Baugher's page http://www.joebaugher.com/
There's nothing extraordinary about 70-2365 (MSN E2-04). She went to AMARC in November 1995 and was scrapped in 2010.

FA is so weird...

During the cold war Russia feared the F-111 more than anything the US had in it's arsenal. During the SALT talks Reagan refused to remove them from Europe.
