Those are really the 1st shots of the QRF-4C I have seen.  I wanted to get up there to see them but my contact no longer works there at BAE.  He was the frm pilot for them.

Firehawks pics appear  to be at least 35-40 years old as in the 3rd pic down the BUNO153783 Black Phantom. There is on the right of the photo, a NC-5 Mobile Electric Power Vehicle. Those were taken out of service in the earily 1970"s as they were powered by a old 312 Ford V-8 (from the 1950's) engine and had a 4 speed manual shift tranny. When ever one was used to service an aircraft an operator had to be sitting in the operators seat  at all times as they were notorous for viberating into second gear and rolling away from an aircraft and crashing into anything in the way. the NC-5 were replaced with an NC-8 that was powered by a 4 cylinder Detroit Diesel engine that powered a generator that drove the rear wheels. Directional drive was controled by two electrical switches on the control panel. The NC-5's were cabable of at least 30MPH in 4th gear. The NC-8 top speed was just 8 MPH.
