Ivanhoe Posted May 30, 2025 Posted May 30, 2025 https://www.twz.com/air/f-4-phantoms-sought-by-private-space-launch-company Quote The Kennedy Space Center-based research, test, and now space launch company Starfighters International, which has been flying F-104 Starfighters privately for decades is now, is in the process of acquiring a dozen F-4 Phantoms. The deal would see the iconic third-generation Cold War fighters fly primarily in service of the firm’s space launch operations, which aim to provide rapid and flexible access to low Earth orbit (LEO) for small satellites, as well as suborbital offerings. If they acquire some gently-used C-130s, they could change the company name to Hercs and Mercs and hire themselves out for regime changes.
