Keeping my US craft replicas in this topic

I will only use Stock/DLC parts, no mods when building these

Boeing

McDonnell Douglas

F-4B/C/E Phantom II on KerbalX

Length: 15.6m

Weight: 25.36t

Parts: 220 (w/drop tanks)

AG1: Toggle afterburners

Stage: Drop external fuel tank

As a side note, I'd highly recommend you only drop the tanks when not exerting any G's on the craft,

since the landing gear on the drop tanks are autostrut-locked to the rest of the plane,

it appears to screw up the wing part positioning and somewhat ruins the aerodynamics.
