Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conceived in 1953 in a chickenwire-covered cubicle known as the advanced design cage at McDonnell Aircraft, the F-4 Phantom II fighter-bomber was produced for 25 years, serving a full workload in Vietnam for the Navy, Marines, and Air Force, and surviving through the 1990s in the air arms of eleven nations. While most case studies of modern aircraft focus on the many ways the military-industrial complex goes wrong, this trenchant, invigorating study looks deeper at how those who built the complex intended it to work. Step by step the reader discovers how the relationships among parts, systems, procedures, economies, and missions were shaped by relationships among people - scientists, engineers, testers, program managers, subcontractors, military strategists, pilots and corporate leaders. Drawing on exhaustive research, including interviews with key players, the author makes a major advance in the burgeoning body of literature on technology management by showing how McDonnell worked through the problems of technical integration that plagued defense engineering in the 1960s and 1970s and led to programs full of "complexity". It is as much a study of how aircraft manufacturers and military officers went about their business as it is a life-and-times history of an important aircraft.

This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-five US Marine Corps squadrons flew versions of the Phantom II and 11 of them used the aircraft in South-East Asia from May 1965 through to early 1973. Rather than the air-to-air missiles that were the main component in the original F-4 armament, these aircraft carried an ever-expanding range of weaponry. Some toted 24,500-lb bombs and others strafed with up to three 20 mm gun pods, while most flew daily sorties delivering napalm, Snakeye bombs and big Zuni rockets. Many US Marines holding small outpost positions in Laos and South Vietnam against heavy Viet Cong attack owed their lives to the Phantom II pilots who repeatedly drove off the enemy. The book will examine these missions in the context of US Marine Corps close-support doctrine, using the direct experience of a selection of the aircrew who flew and organised those missions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different versions of the jet have provided the backbone of the frontline strength of the Iranian air force since the 1970s, and whole generations of Iranian pilots and ground personnel have been trained to fly and maintain them. Indeed, the type bore the brunt of active combat operations during the long war with Iraq. Iranian F-4 Phantom IIs were also some of best equipped examples ever exported by the USA. Some Iranian Phantom II pilots gathered immense experience on the type, flying it in combat for more than ten years. This book removes the veil of secrecy surrounding Iranian Phantom II operations since the war with Iraq.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many respects the most successful, versatile and widely-used combat aircraft of the post-war era the F-4 Phantom II was quickly adopted by the USAF after its spectacular US Navy introduction. Its introduction to USAF squadrons happened just in time for the Vietnam conflict where USAF F-4Cs took over MiG-fighting duties from the F-100 Super Sabre. Although the F-4 was never intended as a dog-fighter to tangle with light, nimble, gun-armed MiGs it was responsible for destroying 109 MiGs in aerial combat. At the end of their careers many of the survivors from the 3,380 'land-based' Phantoms were converted into target drones for training purposes. New aircraft were also built for West Germany, Iran and Israel. The USAF's experience with the Phantom showed clearly that the air-to-air fighter was still a necessity and its decision to fund its successor, the McDonnell-Douglas F-15 Eagle (as well as the F-16 Fighting Falcon and F-22A Raptor) was heavily influenced by the lessons of US and other Phantom pilots in combat.

Book excerpt: The second of two books on the Navy's Phantom II MiG killers of the Vietnam War, this book covers the numerous actions fought out over North Vietnam during the Linebacker I and II operations of 1972-73. No fewer than 17 MiGs were downed during this period, five of them by the Navy's sole aces of the conflict, Lts Randy Cunningham and Willie Driscoll of VF-96. Drawing on primary sources such as surviving Phantom II aircrew and official navy documentation, the author has assembled the most precise appraisal of fighter operations involving US Navy Phantom II units and those elusive MiGs ever seen in print.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vietnam War placed unexpected demands upon American military forces and equipment.The principal US naval fighter, the McDonnell F-4 Phantom, had originally been designed to defend the Fleet from air attack at long range. However, its tremendous power and bomb-carrying capacity made it an obvious candidate for the attack mission in Vietnam from 1965 onwards. Its opponent was the MiG-17, a direct descendant of the MiG-15, which had given USAF Sabre jets a hard fight in the Korean War. This book brings to life their dangerous duels and includes detailed cockpit views and other specially commissioned artwork to highlight the benefits and shortcomings of each plane type. It was in the skies over Vietnam that many of the techniques of air combat evolved as pilots learned how to use and to defeat supersonic fighters for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sadly I'm not an engineer, nor did I serve with the RAF unfortunately, but I am an enthusiast who began working as a volunteer with a local museum after developing some health issues. I joined Tangmere Military Aviation Museum near Chichester in West Sussex England around seven years ago (November 2012)I began as a guide and then turned my hand to the dark side with the engineering team, something I am familiar with having restored many Land Rovers and Armoured Vehicles in previous work, now I get to play with military aircraft 1:1 ScaleThis publication is my account of our F-4 M Phantom FGR2 XV408 that I began to restore back in March 2015, the book is more reference and more likely to be of use to modellers for some authentic views of the ins and outs of an RAF Phantom II, and of course for any budding enthusiast also embarking on a similar road of restoration, and I might suggest DON'T it will hurt youI use the term restoration which of course really it is not, we might normally refer to restoration as ready to use, but unfortunately our air frames are too far gone, cut about to be moved by road, and pillaged for their instruments perhaps to fill holes in other air frames or to sit on a shelf with a collector, our planes will sadly never move under their own steam let alone fly and will remain on static display onlyTo me, XV408 is more preserved and should be seen by our museums visitors, inside and out where possible, experience what it must be like to work on such a beast back in the height of the Cold WarI have around 2500 images so this really is a shortened version, 'thank heavens' I hear you cry, but the process completed over three plus years includes most of the external sanding and repaint, and around thirteen months of research and re-installation of both cockpits, instruments and seats with some items replicatedSome items are just too difficult to get in any time period either being expensive or simply not available, so some parts have been replicated as authentically as possible, that's where my graphical, modelling and limited engineering skills come in I have also included a few low res images found in the public domain of 408 during her service with the RAF, unfortunately I have not been able to locate all the owners of their images, if they still exist, so first apologies if I have not credited you but do get in contact, a few images have come from Google images and others from the likes of David Gledhill and Bob Daniels via FacebookAnyway, please enjoy or just laugh at my efforts and if you require more images, just let me know via email which is [email protected] you can also find me on Facebook or feel free to visit myself and the museum, part with some hard earnt cash and perhaps get up close and personal with 408thanksPete MacKean

Influential leaders and tacticians are profiled to provide a comparative evaluation of their contrasting skills. This book also reveals the technical specifications of each jet with an analysis of the weaponry, avionics and survival devices of the F-4 Phantom II as flown by the USAF and the MiG-21. The fighters' strengths and weaknesses are also compared, including turn radius, performance at altitude, range and structural integrity. First-person extracts reflect on the dangers of these aerial duels, as USAF pilots and their counterparts struggled to overcome each plane's shortcomings.
