General information

The F-4J Phantom II is a American jet fighter. It was introduced in Update "Winged Lions".

The F-4J is one of the most famous variants of the Phantom used by the US Navy. The external appearance closely resembles the F-4C, only missing the unusable IRST underneath the nose. It is a different aircraft from the F-4E, its US Air Force counterpart: lacking the "Agile Eagle" wing slats and devastating Vulcan Gatling cannon, the F-4J is even less suitable for dogfights. It also does not have the F-4E's lethal ground attack arsenal of air-to-ground missiles and glide bombs. The F-4J makes up for these deficiencies by having a very powerful pulse-Doppler radar, long-range AIM-7F missiles, and a unique VTAS helmet-mounted sight for cueing its AIM-9G Sidewinder missiles. This is a Phantom for pilots who can turn technological superiority into air superiority, and it is good preparation for the succeeding F-14A Tomcat.
