The F-4EJ Kai is a Japan Air Self-Defense Force fighter aircraft developed from the F-4EJ Phantom II.

The F-4EJ , which was selected as the successor to the F-86F in 1968 and
began to be deployed in 1969, has been in service for more than 20 years, so
research and development has been carried out since 1980 to extend the life of the aircraft and improve its capabilities.
As a result, a modification plan for the F-4EJ Kai was announced in February 1982.
This modification mainly involves improving combat capabilities and adopting the ASIP inspection method, which is a measure to extend the life of the aircraft.

To improve combat capabilities, the F- 4EJ was fitted with the AN/
APG-66J, a modified version of the Westinghouse AN/APG-66 fire control radar used on the F-16 . This radar was adopted after learning from the lessons learned from the forced landing of the MiG-25 in Hakodate, and is a small pulse-Doppler radar suited to detecting aircraft flying at low altitudes over the sea from the air.
