Starting in 1973 the Japan Air Self-Defense Force received 154 F-4EJ Phantoms that were based on the USAF F-4E. 138 of these aircraft were manufactured under license by Mitsubishi who produced the last F-4 Phantom II. Several changes were made to the F-4E to make it an F-4EJ. Basically it had any offensive weapons removed but eventually these restrictions were lifted and the aircraft were updated with missiles and the latest electronic equipment.
In 1973 the Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF) began receiving the first of 154 F-4EJ Phantoms. 138 of these aircraft were manufactured under license by Mitsubishi who produced the last F-4 Phantom II.
