The McDonnell Douglas F-4 was the main multipurpose aircraft for the US Military for 20 years.
The F-4E variant was an improved version of the C/D with an elongated nose and compact
radar. These two things made it possible to install a 20mm M61A1 6 barrel 640 round Vulcan
gun pod in the nose. The F-4E was the most produced variant with 1387 aircraft being made
over its 12 year production period. The “E” also equipped more air forces than any other
variant of the Phantom II.


The first of 88 German RF-4E’s that would equip AG-51 Aufklarungeschwader 51 "Immelmann"
stationed at Bremgarten and AG-52 Aufklarungeschwader (Reconnaissance Wing) at Leck
went into service on January 20, 1971. AG-52 was activated in December 1959 with the head
of a black panther as their emblem. AG-52 became a member of the NATO Tiger Association in
1963 hosting the Meet in 1967, 1975 and 1984. RF-4E 35+76 represented AG-52 at the 1985
NATO Tiger Meet held in Kleine Brogel, Belgium. AG-52 was inactivated on December 15,
1993.
