I'm all ears!!!

The McDonnell Douglas F-4D Phantom II is a variant of the F-4 Phantom II, a tandem two-seat, twin-engine, all-weather, long-range supersonic jet interceptor and fighter-bomber originally developed by McDonnell Aircraft for the United States Navy. The F-4D was an improved version of the F-4C, optimized for ground-attack missions, and was primarily operated by the United States Air Force (USAF).

Development and Operational History

The F-4D introduced advanced avionics and improved ground-attack capabilities over its predecessor, the F-4C. A total of 825 F-4D aircraft were built. The F-4D played a significant role during the Vietnam War, serving in various combat missions, including air superiority, close air support, and interdiction roles. Its versatility and performance made it a valuable asset to the USAF during the conflict.

Current Status

As of March 2025, the F-4D Phantom II has been retired from active military service. However, several units are preserved and displayed in museums and as static exhibits worldwide. One notable example is on display at the Boron Aerospace Museum in Boron, California. This museum, established in 2003, features various aerospace exhibits, including a McDonnell F-4D Phantom II, highlighting the aircraft's historical significance.

The F-4D Phantom II remains a significant part of aviation history, symbolizing the technological advancements and tactical versatility of military aircraft during the Cold War era.

    Visit this link

    Input your image

    'Maximum horizontal size' is the overall size of image you want (more bigger, more high quality you can get) but bigger the image, bigger the loading time for the code. [The recommended size is around 200 to 500]

    Change the 'size for each pixel'. Default is 1 but i prefer 0.2 for the best result.

    Fill the 'background' box with FFFFFF.

    In the last box is the code you need to spawn the image, you need to copy the code => go to simpleplanes => pick a 'label' part => fill the text with your code => wait.

    If your image is too big for the label, you need to resize the label (dont scale the label, it does nothing)

    I hope this guide is understanable =)
