The F-4 Phantom has remained in the service of many air forces for longer than any other modern war plane - proof of its capability and robustness. It is in use in eleven countries. A total of 5000 of this aircraft have been built. The prototype of this fighter interceptor flew for the first time in 1958. Shortly after that it demonstrated spectacular performances such as world records for a max. altitude of 30,040 m and a maximum speed of 3,085 km/h, with a total of 15 best performances.
Originally developed for the US Navy, the USAF later discovered the advantages of this robust all-weather multi-role fighter. So the Phantom was used in large numbers during the Vietnam War and later remained in service with the Air National Guard over a long period of time. 635 of the F-4C were built for the USAF. The F-4D received improved avionics and 773 examples were delivered.
