COBI® F-4M Phantom II

Build the combat legend of the British skies!

The F-4M Phantom II in service with the United Kingdom is waiting for you.

This time, the construction of one of the most famous interceptors of Great Britain is on the agenda.

With 728 building blocks, you can rebuild the model of the iconic F-4M Phantom II in the British version, which not only patrolled the skies over Europe and the Atlantic but also played a decisive role in the Falklands War in 1982.

The history of the British Phantom

In the 1960s, Great Britain decided to purchase the American F-4 Phantom II aircraft after its own projects, such as the TSR-2, were cancelled.

These machines were specifically adapted for the Royal Navy and the RAF and received the designations FG.1 (F-4K) and FGR.2 (F-4M).

The British Phantoms differed from the American versions by locally produced Rolls-Royce Spey engines, modern electronics, and a modified construction that allowed operation from smaller aircraft carriers such as the HMS Ark Royal.

They belonged to the most technologically advanced aircraft of their time.

For many years, the RAF's Phantoms patrolled over Europe, based both in Great Britain and in West Germany.

During the Falklands War, they played an important role in the defense of the archipelago – initially operating from the base on Ascension Island and later from the airport in Port Stanley.

The Phantoms were finally retired from service in 1992 and replaced by the Tornado F3.

However, they left a lasting legacy as reliable, versatile, and modern fighter jets that served the British armed forces for decades.

Why is it worth building the model of the F-4M Phantom II RAF by COBI?

- 728 parts: The model built from high-quality building blocks contains many details that reflect the British version of the F-4M, including modified engines, additional armament, and RAF markings.

- RAF prints: The model does not contain any stickers.

All badges, RAF insignia, numbers, and markings are authentic and printed directly onto the building blocks, making them durable, precise, and wear-resistant.
