USN F-4J, NG21, VF-92 Silver Kings, of the CVW-9 air-wing on USS Constellation during its October 1971–July 1972 deployment off Vietnam. The Phantom was often flown with up to four Sparrows, two Sidewinders, and four Mk.82 GP-bombs, and could be directed for a strike sortie in South Vietnam or a CAP mission in the North as the need arose. Lieutenant Curt Dosé and LCDR James McDevitt flew it over North Vietnam on 10 May 1972, when they shot down a MiG-21.
