PHANTOM BOYS

Descriere

True Tales from Aircrew of the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Fighter-Bomber. Originally developed for the US Navy, this twin-engined supersonic long- range fighter-bomber first flew in the spring of 1958. It then entered service for the US Navy in 1961, and in 1969 with the Fleet Air Arm and RAF in the UK. Regarded as one of the most versatile fighters ever built, the Phantom F-4 was the US Navy�s fastest and highest-flying aircraft. It was flown by both US military demonstration teams (Navy Blue Angels and the Air Force Thundercats) from 1969 to 1973.
