The F-4 Phantom II served as one of the most versatile and widely used fighters of the Cold War era. VMFA-531 was the first operational Marine Corps squadron to fly the Phantom, earning its “Gray Ghosts” nickname for its distinctive paint scheme and reputation. The squadron operated extensively from the 1960s into the 1970s, flying missions that showcased the Phantom’s role as a fighter, interceptor, and ground attack aircraft. This kit captures the look and detail of the early Phantom variants flown by USMC aviators.
