‘Phantom Patrol’
Phantom FG.1 - No 892 Squadron, HMS Ark Royal, April 1977.

The Phantom entered service with both the Fleet Air Arm and the RAF in 1969. In the Royal Navy it had a secondary strike role in addition to its primary use for fleet air defence, while in the RAF it was soon replaced in the strike role by other aircraft designed specifically for strike and close air support.
By the mid-1970s it had become the UK's principal interceptor, a role in which it continued until the late 1980s.
