Aircrews faced everything from MIG Fighters, anti-aircraft fire, surface to air missiles, terrain, and weather. Yet in this dangerous battlefield one jet reigned supreme; the F4 Phantom. Armed to the teeth for whatever mission the crews who flew this jet were relentless. By the end of the war the F4 Phantoms had claimed the most kills. These are the stories of the Furious Phantoms.
