The F-4 Phantom has flownin Air Force squadrons from the Unitesd States, Europe and Asia. Its speed, agility and firepower make it one of the most accurate and lethal fighter jets in the world.
It has seen action in almost every modern conflict , from Vietnam to the Iran-Iraq War and even the current war in Afghanistan. But even these winged warriors have a shelf life. Some olf F-4 Phantoms are used as unmanned drones for target practice, others are decommissioned and broken down - their working parts tested and refurbished for use in other planes.
The breakdown process itself takes two and a half months... and is fraught with danger as each plane comes fully loaded with a Vulcan cannon, ejection seats armed with live rockets, and twin turbojet engines.
The specialised crew charged with breaking down these parts is well aware of the importance of their job: one wrong move in the breakdown process can damage a plane component. Or worse, injure or kill a technician.
