History and Application of the F-4J Phantom II

The F-4J Phantom II is a famous American multi-role fighter jet, operated mainly by the United States Navy (US Navy) and Marine Corps (USMC) from the mid-1960s. This variant saw extensive use during the Cold War years, especially during the Vietnam War, where it played a key role in both air combat and close air support missions. The refueling probe allowed the aircraft to significantly extend its operational range by enabling mid-air refueling.
