F 4 Phantom Wall Art Wall Art

F 4 Phantom Wall Art — 2 museum-grade prints on the theme. The McDonnell Douglas F-4G Advanced Wild Weasel was the United States Air Force's final Phantom-based SEAD platform, converting surplus F-4E airframes at Hill Air Force Base with APR-38 Radar Homing and Warning System pods and ARN-101 digital modular avionics to locate and destroy enemy radar emitters. Paired with the Textron AGM-88 HARM, the F-4G devastated integrated air-defence networks during Operation Desert Storm — 561st TFS aircraft launched opening-night HARM salvos against Baghdad-area SAM sites. The F-4F was a Luftwaffe-specific derivative of the F-4E Phantom II — roughly eleven percent lighter, without the seventh internal fuel tank or USAF-style aerial refuelling probe, but fitted with leading-edge slats for improved manoeuvrability in the interceptor role. Jagdgeschwader 71 "Richthofen" at Wittmundhafen Air Base was Germany's last operational Phantom wing, flying grey Norm 90J camouflage Phantoms through farewell ceremonies in 2013 before transitioning to the Eurofighter Typhoon.
