🎯 How it flies
The F-4 Phantom II sits in the middle of the fleet, with missile load as its strongest trait. It has no glaring weakness, but it dominates in no single area either — positioning decides the fight, not the airframe. Gun damage is on the low side — you need to hold the target in your sights longer, which forces you to close in and stay locked on the enemy's six.
Special Ability: Missile platform — 34 missiles, twin salvo + afterburner. A missile storm.
