F-4J Phantom II is a McDonnell Douglas design developed for the US Navy. The F-4J variant featured the improved AN/APG-59 radar, a more powerful propulsion system, and the capability to carry a wide range of air-to-air and air-to-ground armament. F-4J aircraft were used from the 1960s to the early 1980s, mainly during the Cold War and in conflicts such as the Vietnam War. The “USS Midway 1978” livery refers to service aboard the USS Midway (CV-41), an iconic US Navy aircraft carrier that played a key role in operations in the Pacific.
