Default Is it an airplane?

Okay folks,

Have a look at 38°32'4.78"N and 89°50'14.30"W on Google Maps, just
above the two light aircraft. There is what may be a slab sided
blotchy green thing with what appear to be swept wings. Beneath each
"wing" appears to be a drop tank midway between the root and tip. By
the way, the location appears to be adjacent to the Aero Club at Scott
AFB.

At first, I thought it was an old F-4. Now I am pretty convinced it
is not. With apologies to any Rhino drivers out there . . . what the
Heck is that thing??????

Thanks in advance . . . and take care.

John
