http://www.hpphoto.com/servlet/LinkPhoto?GUID=21ebb6c3-78d5-6026-2fdf-69ea53a02d01&size=
The F/B-4 Phantom III Matches or exceeds the F-4-2000 SuperPhantom (Israeli phantom which equaled the F/A-18) in air to air capability and doubles the bomb carrying load of the original F-4s. It can carry a full air-to air load of 12 Anti-aircraft missiles plus its full bomb load. 4 AIM-120s can be removed and replaced with more bombs! Even with a full weapons load this aircraft can travel over mach 2 and out manever many vietnam era soviet fighters and attack aircraft. The Phantom III fills a gap in aircraft that has been left between the FB-111 medium fighter bomber and the F-117A. Providing a heavier bomber which is more air-to-air capable. Many airframe improvements have been completed as has the additon of a bomb bay in the centerline of the fuselage, reducing radar cross section.A phased array radar, new FLIR systems and new counter measures have also been added. The Phantom also has in-flight re-fuel capabilty and is fully carrier capable. This aircraft has been in development since the founding of Phoenix Dynamix and is finnaly availbe to own!!!
