Better Late than Never maybe

This build is long over due. It was intended to be entered in the "Swing Wing Campaign" that ended in January of last year A couple of personal problems delayed it.

This is an aircraft that was used as a "backup" proposal, had the F-14 project not been successful. A Swing Wing F-4 Phantom.





Hope you enjoy

It's amazing how fast these things happen. I was at General Dynamics when Pres. Carter killed the B-1A. Within hours, were were pulling together an FB-111H proposal to submit as a replacement.
