A concise pictorial guide to the F-4 Phantom, featuring over 200 images.

The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II first flew in the 1950s, entered US military service in the 1960s, and remained on duty into the 1990s. The plane gained a reputation for tremendous lethality during the Vietnam War and remains one of the most celebrated American fighter designs of the jet age.

This is a visual guide to the type. Chapters are dedicated to each model designation (C, D, E, etc.), including both US Navy and Air Force variants. There are more than 200 photographs, mostly in color, which show the F-4 both in combat and in the details of its interior and exterior design features, markings, and weaponry. [AuthorName]By David Doyle[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]David Doyle is a professional historian dedicated to the study of military vehicles.
