A U.S. Navy Lockheed EC-121M Warning Star (BuNo 143209 ?) of Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron 1 (VQ-1) "World Watchers" accompanied by a McDonnell F-4B Phanton II of Fighter Squadron 151 (VF-151) "Vigilantes" from Attack Carrier Air Wing 15 (CVW-15). An EC-121M of VQ-1 was shot down by North Korean Mikoyan-Gurevitch MiG-21s on 15 April 1969, killing all 31 crewmembers.
Due to the black radome of the F-4B, the photo was probably taken during the deployment of VF-151 with USS Coral Sea (CVA-43) to Vietnam from 7 December 1964 to 1 November 1965.
