I'm not sure this is one of them but Phantoms like this one out of SANGB were known to have intercepted a Soviet bomber or two back in the Cold War.

My primary flight instructor, who was an ex Navy F-4 jockey, said the F-4 was the first aircraft in the world that could accelerate going straight up vertical.

Beautiful Aircraft. We had RF4’s stationed in Birmingahm with the Alabama Air National Guard from 1971 until after the first Gulf War. A few flew missions in the first Gulf War. They were like this one.
