About this design
First flown in May 1958, the Phantom II originally was developed for U.S. Navy fleet defense and entered service in 1961. It gained its reputation in the Vietnam war.
For every American fighter pilot involved in the Vietnam War, the ultimate goal was to ‘kill a MiG’. In eight years of conflict, 43 Vietnamese Peoples Air Force aircraft were claimed by US Navy and US Marine Corps Phantom II crews. Real MiG killers!
