FS2002/FS2004 McDonnell FH-1 Phantom
FS2002/FS2004 McDonnell FH-1 Phantom. This was the first all-jet airplane ordered into production by the Navy. A new form to bury the J30 engine under the root of the both wings that was on earth manufactured with the body was adopted. And, a straight line main wing and the horizontal tail with a strong dihedral angle were combined with a thin body. Though the maximum speed achieved 770 km/h, because rising performance and the practicality, etc. are low, only 60 planes were manufactured and it ended. The first all-jet squadron aboard a carrier was operational with FH-1 Phantoms on the USS Saipan. by Kazunori Ito 1.6MB
