The McDonnell (later McDonnell Douglas) F-4 Phantom, one of history's truly great aircraft, flew and fought with a number of countries' air forces, especially the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force throughout the Vietnam War, as well as the Israel Air Force through several campaigns beginning in 1969. Many books and articles have been written about this masterpiece, and it has appeared in several movies. Until the publication of this book, however, no author has seen fit to discuss the Phantom prototypes and first production aircraft in such detail.
