This new study of the sea-going Phantoms includes contributions from over a hundred aircrew and maintainers who were involved in the Phantom�s success from the earliest service development flying to its twilight years in the Reserve units. There are personal accounts of MiG battles from more than a dozen MiG killers, first-hand descriptions of the F-4�s introduction into combat with the Marines as a CAS and reconnaissance aircraft, memories of �Bear� intercepts on Mediterranean cruises, narratives covering the aircraft�s service into the 1980s, and much more. These voices are blended with a detailed technical and developmental description of the aircraft, supported by comprehensive appendices and over 450 photos in color and black and white.
