About this ebook
Different versions of the jet have provided the backbone of the frontline strength of the Iranian air force since the 1970s, and whole generations of Iranian pilots and ground personnel have been trained to fly and maintain them. Indeed, the type bore the brunt of active combat operations during the long war with Iraq. Iranian F-4 Phantom IIs were also some of best equipped examples ever exported by the USA. Some Iranian Phantom II pilots gathered immense experience on the type, flying it in combat for more than ten years. This book removes the veil of secrecy surrounding Iranian Phantom II operations since the war with Iraq.

4.5/5

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a fascinating book that really covers Iranian F4 operations, in a war that is pretty unknown in the west, this and th eequally excellent Iranian F14 Tomcats inCombat are a really good read. It would be great if this series covered the Iaqi AF side or the F5 Tiger on the Iranian side.
