RF-4B Phantom / VMFP-3 Airplane ModelRF 4B Phantom VMFP 3 airplane model. In the initial Model 98 package that was submitted to the Navy, McDonnell had included a Model 98P, which was a photographic reconnaissance version of the basic design. The Navy initially expressed no interest in the Model 98P proposal, since they were perfectly happy with the F8U 1P reconnaissance version of the Crusader.

RF-4B Phantom VMFP-3 airplane model. In the initial Model 98 package that was submitted to the Navy, McDonnell had included a Model 98P, which was a photographic reconnaissance version of the basic design. The Navy initially expressed no interest in the Model 98P proposal, since they were perfectly happy with the F8U-1P reconnaissance version of the Crusader. However, the F8U-1P lacked the night reconnaissance capability that was being planned in early 1962 for the Air Force's RF-110A reconnaissance version of the land-based Phantom. This caused the Navy to take a second look at the Model 98P, and in February 1963 the Marine Corps agreed to acquire the first 9 of an eventual 46 RF-4Bs.
,,
,,In initial proposals and in pre-contract negotiations, this aircraft had initially been referred to as F4H-1P. However, this was changed to RF-4B in September 1962 when the new unified designation scheme came into effect.
,,
,,The RF-4B was quite similar to the much more numerous RF-4C of the USAF. Like the RF-4C, the RF-4B was unarmed. The fighter's radar-equipped nose was replaced with a special nose specifically designed for reconnaissance applications. This nose was 4 feet 8 7/8 inches longer than the nose of the armed F-4B. The AN/APQ-72 radar of the F-4B was replaced by the much smaller Texas Instruments AN/APQ-99 forward-looking J-band monopulse radar which was optimized for terrain avoidance and terrain-following modes, and could also be used for ground mapping. There were three separate camera bays in the nose, designated Stations 1, 2, and 3. Station 1 could carry a single forward oblique or vertical KS-87 camera, Station 2 could carry a single KA-87 low-altitude camera, and Station 3 normally carried a single KA-55A or KA-91 high-altitude panoramic camera. The much larger KS-91 or KS-127A camera could also be carried. Unlike the cameras of the Air Force's RF-4Cs, the RF-4B's cameras were fitted on rotating mounts so that the pilot could aim them at targets off the flight path.

,,Mahogany Wood. Scale 1/48. Wingspan 10 inches, Length 15 1/2 inches.

Soft, lightweight golf shirt
Color: Turquoise, Size: Medium
I got this for my husband who occasionally golfs with work buddies as of recently. This golf shirt was perfect for him because it’s soft and the thinness helps with sweat and keeping it cool which is necessary where we live. The color is great and matches with most of his other shirts. It feels like a nice quality shirt while also being very lightweight. I’m sure if he was into wearing polos regularly, he would probably were it all the time. The size we got fit great and washing it was easy. Overall this is a great lightweight polo for being active.

It's more than golf shirt.
Color: Grey, Size: Large
This shirt is great for summer, beach, casual wear and outdoor activities. It's cool to touch and dry quick. The only thing you should be aware is that if you are on the plus size, the shirt does stick to your body sometimes and it does not compliment your body type well.

Soft and Easy Care

This is a great lightweight and moisture wicking golf shirt. The color is pretty and it has a UPF rating of 30+. The fabric has a soft, luxurious feel and the fit is true to size. The snaps fasten easily and are of good quality. This shirt washed up easily with no need for ironing. A nice shirt at a great price!
