Mcdonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II documents the history of the popular military plane. The documentary explains how the military discovered the plane's versatility during the Vietnam war, leading to it becoming one of the most popular planes throughout the world. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi Guide Phantom II covers the first development of the type and its powerful engine and includes a walk-round of an F-4B. The Phantom then joins the fleet and US Navy, US Marine Corps and US Air Forces machines see action in Vietnam.Source: Ryko Distribution
First entering service in 1960 with the US military, the F-4 Phantom remained at the forefront of US air power throughout the 1970s and 1980s. It saw extensive action during the Vietnam War as the principal air superiority fighter for both the US Navy and Air Force, as well as in the ground-attack and reconnaissance roles. The F-4J, K and M also played key roles with the RAF and Royal Navy in the same period. Former RAF Phantom navigator Ian Black gives the F-4 the Haynes Manual treatment.

Super Hornet Can a F/A-18 Super Hornet land itself on a carrier?
I briefly heard something about it being able to do that. Is it true and has it happened before?
Every airplane in the US Navy are capable of performing automatic landings. The system is called ACLS (Auto Carrier Landing System). In fact the ACLS system was so good that the aircraft carriers were starting to get fatigue cracks on the landing surface because the airplane landed in almost the exact same sport each and every time...so the engineers had to add so error into the system so the landing impact would be spread out over several feet.
The F/A-18E Super Hornet model takes modern warfare to new heights. Flown in multiple military operations, including Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Hornet's speed and precision-guided weapons system have played a major role in wars for the last two decades. The Super Hornet fighter jet model takes all of the major components and scales them down so you can enjoy them every day. The Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet model is a carrier-based multi-mission strike fighter that entered service with the United States Navy (USN) in 1999. It is a larger and more advanced version of the night strike F/A-18C/D Hornet. The Super Hornet fighter jet model provides the battle group commander with a platform that has range, endurance, and ordnance carriage capabilities comparable to those of the retired A-6 Intruder. Ordered from McDonnell Douglas by the USN in 1992, the Super Hornet first flew in November 1995. The Super Hornet military model is informally referred to as the Rhino, to distinguish it from earlier model legacy Hornets. Initial production began in 1995. Flight testing started in 1996 and ended in 1999. The Super Hornet aircraft model testing involved 3,100 test flights covering 4,600 flight hours. The aircraft passed the Navy's operational tests and evaluations in February 2000, and has replaced the A-6 Intruder, S-3 Viking and KA-6D. The Super Hornet model is capable of performing a broad spectrum of roles, including day/night strikes with precision-guided weapons, anti-air warfare, fighter escort, reconnaissance, forward air control, close air support, suppression of enemy air defense (SEAD), maritime strike and air-to-air refueling. The Navy's Strike Fighter Squadron 115 was the first unit to bring their Super Hornets to combat. The Hornet fighter jet model, on November 6, 2002, in support of Operation Southern Watch, two F/A-18Es conducted a "Response Option" strike on two surface-to-air missile launchers at Al Kut and an air defense command and control bunker at Tallil Air Base. It was the first time 2,000-lb JDAM bombs were dropped from the F/A-18E in wartime. The Super Hornet military model flew close air support, strike, escort SEAD and aerial refueling roles during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Buy the F/A-18E Super Hornet model, and be amazed at the detail of the plane known for its combat mission capabilities.

Super Hornet?
What makes the F/Af 18 Super Hornet better than the F/A 18 Hornet? It uses different engines, but is bigger, heavier and slower than the original Hornet. What makes it so good that the RAAF is spending $6 billion on it?
The new engines are more powerful, and have something around 2,000kg more thrust. But it has an extra at least 3,000kg to cart around, an extra 9,000kg when its fully loaded. How does this extra power make it better when its slower? I understand more weapons though, and the 2 seats like the retiring F-111
I dont understand how 24 aircraft can close the gap between the F-111 and JSF though. Wacko politions
Cris 777, I DO think we need an airforce, I want to join our airforce
A much more powerful and efficient engine, more/stronger hardpoints for weapons and fuel.
