Silver Kite 211  – 10th May 1972. Lt. Cdr. Curtis ‘Curt’ Dose together with his RIO, Lt. Cdr. Jim McDevitt line up their F-4J Phantom II, prior to landing on the USS Constellation following their first successful target combat air patrol of the day. During this mission, NG211 “Silver Kite 211” shot down a MiG-21F with an AIM-9 sidewinder missile, after an ultra-low level supersonic flight over the North Vietnamese airfield of Kep, Northeast of Hanoi. Designed as a fleet defence fighter for the US Navy, this twin engine, long range all weather fighter/bomber proved to be a highly adaptable and effective aircraft for numerous national militaries around the world. During the Vietnam War it was the principal air superiority fighter for the Navy and the Air Force. Introduced in late 1960 with the US Navy, the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II continued to serve well into 1980s and even flew missions during the first Gulf War. The Phantom was retired from US Service in 1996.
