F4 pilots were something. Did you know the F4 was the first US fighter that did not mount a gun? All missiles. All the time!

Your dad was a hero.

No, I didn't, because the F-102, F-101, and F-106 didn't have a gun either, well before the F-4.

The E model had the M61A1 20mm Vulcan cannon. I on the other hand had only two M-60s and two brave souls to cover my young behind.
