Historical information

The McDonnell Douglas F-4B Phantom II was one of the most famous US Navy jet fighters. It served from the early 1960s, and was extensively used during the Vietnam War as well as throughout the 1970s and 1980s—the period of the Cold War.

These aircraft operated as interceptor fighters, strike aircraft, and reconnaissance planes. The engine air inlets are among the most recognizable features of the F-4B, and their accurate reproduction significantly increases the realism of the finished model.
