F-4 PHANTOM MODEL - GRAY

The McDonnell Douglas F‑4 Phantom II is considered one of the most successful fighter aircraft designs ever built. A two‑seat, twin‑engine, long‑range supersonic interceptor and fighter‑bomber originally developed for the United States Navy, it achieved speeds exceeding twice the speed of sound and set 16 records in speed, altitude, and time‑to‑climb. The F‑4 became the first aircraft to be used simultaneously by the USAF, USN, and USMC, and also served in approximately 11 other countries. The Jolly Rogers squadron is known worldwide for its striking skull‑and‑crossbones tail markings, inspired by pirate flags once flown before battle.
