Awesome vid man! I take 31 minutes without a tank and it makes me more than enough maneuverable. It last last more than enough for a full match with a heavy amount of afterburner!
F-4E is solid although you lack the Pulse Doppler Radar, HMD, and AIM-7Fs, you don't fight 12.7/13.0 Jets with the new BR changes moving it to 11.3. So no F-15s, F-16s, MiG-29s, or F-14Bs. The most you'd see are F-14A spam and they can only take up 4 players in the match. If you're going for one Phantom and you never used any before the F-4E is a good learning Phantom that doesn't throw you into matches against a lot of really good top-tier jets. You get the Agile Eagle to help you out in turn fights and can turnfight most other F-4s except for a sustained turnfight against an F-4C since it's much lighter (don't remember though). However, with the F-4E's speed, you should easily be able to outrun any jet that can beat you in a turnfight and take on any MiG-21s once you get the hand for it. The AIM-7E-2s are also really solid in closer engagements since they track much faster off the rails than AIM-7Es, just don't rely on ACM mode for everything. The main problem I've had was its horrendous stock grind of 2 x AIM-9Es, once you get past that though it's just a smooth sail to learn Phantoms. I will say the only exception is if you want to get the F-14s first, if you do I'd get the J and just power through your really good radar, HMD, and solid SARH missiles. I personally had an amazing time with the F-4J however this was mostly before the recent BR changes putting it at 12.0, so up to you. Still, I'm not a massive expert in Phantoms trying to learn more myself, I also wanted to shout out Tims Variety and JaeK for really amazing in-detail guides for anything in-game that helped me learn them too. ua-cam.com/video/47JLD2eDO_Q/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/V3PnPOJQFhE/v-deo.html

awesome video!!! from Canada
I just got this phantom would you say that it’s better than the higher br F4J
Do you recommend f4e instead of f4j in a tech tree? Or maybe f4f ger at 11.0?
