History and Use of the Original

The modernized “Late” version included significant upgrades in avionics, armament (for example, integrated fixed automatic cannon), as well as self-defense systems. The F-4E was widely used by the USAF during the Vietnam War, later by Israel (including during the 1973 conflict), Germany, Greece, Turkey, and other NATO and allied countries. It was actively employed from the late 1960s until the early 21st century, making this aircraft one of the most recognizable symbols of the Cold War.
