McDonnell Douglas Phantom FG1, Cockpit Section

Aircraft & Exhibits, JUN 1969-JAN 1994, Cosford, Hangar Four, 1994/1474/A

One of the most successful and widely-used warplanes of all time, originally designed to meet a US Navy requirement for a supersonic two-seat carrier-borne air defence fighter, the Phantom first flew in May 1958 and entered US Navy service in July 1961. This Cockpit section is from Phantom FG1 XV591 – one of 48 production Phantom FG1 aircraft initially purchased for British service, 20 for the RAF and the remainder, including XV591, for the Royal Navy.
