Product description

The USAF would acquire 583 F-4Cs that were basically F-4Bs retrofitted for ground operations.
The F-4C arrived in Southeast Asia in early 1965 and by 1966 equipped 7 squadrons in Vietnam
and 3 in Thailand. The early F-4Cs lacked guns and relied totally on missiles but it wasn’t long
before the addition of SUU-16A gun pods with M-61AI-20-mm guns were put to use to
compensate for the lack of internal guns. The first F-4Cs suffered from many defects and It wasn’
t too long before the F-4D made an appearance.
