Description

  • Fast and maneuverable.
  • Available for the USA side at Rank 3 from an upgrade that gives the EF-111 Raven along.
  • Armed with Anti-Radiation missiles that can deal heavy damage to Anti-Air systems.
  • Its missiles are long-range.
  • Cannot engage any type of units besides Radar systems.

Against SAMs

Will most likely fully destroy the AA system or leave it with next to no health points at all.

Against Radar

Destroys a URAL Radar in a single run, same does not apply to the Radarstation

Usage

  • Use always in conjunction with the EF-111 disable enemy Anti-Air systems before destroying them.
  • Always scout the area and give direct orders instead of using the guard order to make sure that the unit will utilize its long range.
  • Becomes redundant once all Anti-Air defenses are destroyed.

How to defend against

  • The F-4G is a sitting duck against interceptors, so always deploy your interceptors in areas where you expect the F4G to strike in.
  • As the F-4G can target and destroy any radar-based system you may have, it is advised to use infra-red based systems to take it out, but this will probably take you a while.
  • Upgrade your Anti-Air systems with cloaking to make them less vulnerable to its attacks.
  • Usage of multiple Anti Aircraft systems is advised, but still investing in fighters will be a better deal.
