Nice observation, and if you go to the link provided it explains that's it's a pile of parts, one of many.
Another view/angle.

The F-4B model Phantom is displayed in pride of place atop other battered US Navy and Air Force relics, including twisted propellers and smashed jet engines......................
According to Ejection-History.org.uk, the two crew members, Lt. Cdr. C. E. Southwick and Lt. D. J. Rollins survived the crash and became prisoners of war. The wrecked F-4 had belonged to VF-114 ‘Aardvarks’ aboard the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk, and remains one of the museum’s star attractions today.
