Air Superiority Machines. From Vietnam to now, these 3 fighter aircraft have dominated the skies in their air battles, aside from the F-22 since it has not seen combat yet. The F-4 Phantom II *center* dominated the skies over Vietnam, battling MiG-17s, MiG-19s, and its adversary, MiG-21s. It was later succeeded by the F-15 *bottom center* where it first flew in Lebanon, taking MiG-21s for its first kills. It later flew the skies of Iraq in Operation Desert Storm, destroying Iraqi fighters like the MiG-29 and F-2. The F-22 *top center* has not seen combat but boasts the latest technology so it will have the first shot.
