F-4 Phantom

Features

With the F-14, F-16, and F-22, it seems that their is a trend of having American Powerhouse fighter jets with the exception of the F-15. It would be great to see the addition of the F-4 Phantom, as it was once the primary fighter of the US Military, while allowing multiple liveries to be added from different air forces; with countries such as Turkey, Japan, Iran, Germany, and even Great Britain.

Cool! One of my favorite jets. If I had enough money to buy it, I definitely would along with the f-5 in aggressor camouflage.

I could fly this one while listening “Fortunate Son”.

I’m 90% sure the dev team has completely forgot that military aircraft even exist in game and real life. They neglect military aircraft, and don’t even answer why they don’t add anymore. F-4E Phantom is my favorite American fighter. That’s a really good idea. But my heart will always stay true to the Su-35

Simple answer: people like airliners more than military aircraft.

Wondering if this can be bumped or a new thread in any way.

I think you can ask the moderators for a new topic. No one has been here for 8 years, and that doesn’t count as active so your good to ask

I’ve always associated the F-4 with “All Along the Watchtower” or “Gimme Shelter”

An F-4G from George Air Force Base loaded for bear with two AGM-88 HARMs on the outboard hardpoints, an AGM-65 Maverick on the left inboard station and an AGM-78 Standard (developed from a U.S. Navy SAM) on the right inboard, and an ALQ-119 jamming pod in the forward left missile well.

If we get the most widely-used variant of the Phantom, the F-4E (used by the USAF, Luftwaffe, IAF, ROKAF, RAAF, JASDF, IRIAF, HAF, and THK), we should also get the extremely similar F-4G Wild Weasel IV, the dedicated SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses) variant of the Phantom. All that would really have to be changed to the external model is a different fairing where the M61 Vulcan on the Echo variant is and some tweaks to the WSO’s station. Curiosly enough, the husband of one of my high school teachers is a former F-4G WSO, who was based at VCV when it was still George AFB. Might’ve even had time in the airframe in this picture.
