American artist James Rosenquist immortalized the aircraft in his acclaimed 1965 room-sized pop art painting entitled F-111 that features an early natural-finish example of the aircraft in USAF markings. The painting hangs in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The F-111 is the featured aircraft in the novel Chains of Command by former F-111 and B-52 crew member Dale Brown.
The sound of an F-111 flyby is on the Voyager Golden Record.
