The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II was one of the most versatile and widely deployed jet fighters of the Cold War. Introduced in 1960, the Phantom served with distinction across the U.S. Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps, and was adopted by over a dozen allied nations including the UK, Germany, Japan, and Israel. With twin J79 engines, a top speed over Mach 2.2, and a payload capacity of 18,000 lbs, the Phantom excelled in air superiority, ground attack, and reconnaissance roles.
This category features high-resolution prints of F-4 Phantoms in flight, on takeoff, and in ceremonial liveries—captured by aviation photographer Stuart H. Bourne. Included are RAF FG.1 and FGR.2 variants, Luftwaffe F-4Fs, and museum-displayed airframes from the UK and abroad. Each image is cataloged with verified serials, squadron history, and archival context.
Whether you're drawn to the Phantom’s iconic silhouette, its role in Vietnam and NATO defense, or its enduring legacy in aviation museums worldwide, these prints offer a visually rich tribute to one of the most celebrated fighters of the jet age.
