Summary[edit]

Description A McDonnell YF-4E Phantom II with canards of high-maneuverability test program. USAF text: "The airframe on display at the museum was originally an F-4B-14 diverted from U.S. Navy production, modified as a prototype for the RF-4C reconnaissance version (USAF S/N 62-12200) and later the F-4E fighter-bomber variant. It also was the test bed for such advanced ideas as F-4 leading edge slats and the "Fly-By-Wire" concept (electrical rather than mechanical interconnections between pilot and control surfaces). A final modification added distinctive wing-like canard surfaces to examine the Precision Aircraft Control Technology (PACT) configuration for mission and performance improvements. It was delivered to the museum from McDonnell Douglas in 1979. "
