The F4j Phantom II was a Naval variant of the F4e, traditionally the F4 sported an older mechanical radar. Adding on the F4J changes this with a post Doppler search and track radar, this radar could distinguish between chaff and plane and was able to filter out ground clutter. The main armament of the f4 was the Aim 7 which is a semi active radar homing missile or Sarh missile, the stormworks replica both contains the Aim 7 and the Aim 9 which is heat guided.
