Details are important as an F4 and an F-4 are not the same!

I would have thought the aps4 radar was older than the F4.... F4 was current when I was in the Air Force but then again we had vacuum tube radios for the control tower GRC 27 etc etc

Is this correct ?

No single place USAAF fighter plane had radar, while the US Navy's F4 and F6 had some variants with AN/APS-4 radar.

( Seems like a whole lot to pay attention to, in a single place fighter plane. )
