The thing I say about the F4 Phantom has nothing to do with aerodynamics, but is that in appearance it`s up there with the Chance Vought F4-U Corsair as one of the meanest looking aircraft ever built. Maybe the F4, common to both, has something to do with it. There`s an F4 on display in Hanoi that has more holes in it than a kitchen strainer. Got onto the ground though in one piece. That`s a quality it also had in company with the Corsair; its ability to take a lot of damage and still get back on the ground.
