I saw the first F4 Phantom HUD's on the F4-F model in the USAF (1980)

The first HUD's on the F4-F models started appearing around 1980. They were not widely available yet. I was in Germany. Since it was the F model, I do not know if they could have retrofitted any version of the HUD. It had an eyepiece that attached to the helmet. I have no clue what goodies we will get. Get prepared to see green boxes and dots on green screens. Lots of fuel burned, and I hope they do give us the hooks for the cables, for fast landings and no brakes. Napalm, gattling gun in center fuel tank (not used often) cover. aim-7 and aim-9 standard loadout.
