<div>The <a href="http://www.eodmod.com/" target="_blank"><b>Eve of Destruction 2</b></a> mod team is back today with their latest update. Here's what they had to say:<br />
<blockquote>Hey gang! Another news post today. Today we'd like to showcase one of my most favorite fixed winged aircraft. The F4 Phantom II.<br />
<br />
The F-4 Phantom was designed as a fleet defense fighter for the U.S. Navy, and first entered service in 1960. By 1963, it had been adopted by the U.S. Air Force for the fighter-bomber role. When production ended in 1981, 5,195 Phantom IIs had been built, making it the most numerous American supersonic military aircraft. Until the advent of the F-15 Eagle, the F-4 also held a record for the longest continuous production with a run of 24 years. Innovations in the F-4 included an advanced pulse-doppler radar and extensive use of titanium in its airframe.<br />
<br />
The F-4 could carry up to 18,650 pounds (8,480 kg) of weapons on nine external hardpoints, including air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles, and unguided, guided, and nuclear bombs. Since the F-8 Crusader was to be used for close combat, the F-4 was designed, like other interceptors of the day, without an internal cannon; however, should it be engaged in visual range dogfights, the radar was assisted by the Weapons Systems Officer in spotting opposing fighters. It became the primary fighter-bomber of both the Navy and Air Force by the end of the Vietnam War.</blockquote><div align="center"><a href="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/navyli0.jpg"><img src="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/thumb_navyli0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/navy1nn0.jpg"><img src="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/thumb_navy1nn0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/usaff4bp0.jpg"><img src="http://images.totalgamingnetwork.com/images/thumb_usaff4bp0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><br />
