Product Info
Without doubt, one of the most successful jet aircraft of the post-war era, the incredible American-produced McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom saw service with a number of international air arms, with Britain becoming a significant operator.

Originally purchased to equip the Royal Navy with a modern replacement for their ageing De Havilland Sea Vixens, Fleet Air Arm Phantoms had the primary role of defending the fleet against air attack in all weather, with a secondary role of providing devastating strike support.

Designated Phantom FG.1, these Naval jets were an impressive sight and are still considered some of the most attractive aircraft to have ever served with Britain’s armed forces.

Operating this huge aircraft from the relatively diminutive deck of HMS Ark Royal required a number of significant modifications to British Phantoms, in addition to the carrier itself, with their successful operation dictating only cream of Britain’s fast jet pilots were selected to fly them.

An aircraft that looks this good deserves to be on display, and our military aircraft model kit allows you to build this in fine, 1:48 scale detail.
