Multi role Starfighters could carry a 4000lb ordance load, up to 4 AAMs and a 20mm M61 Vulcan. Normal take off weight was approaching 20,000 lb. The plane found many buyers around the world including Germany, Japan, Jordan, Pakistan, Taiwan, Holland, Belgium, Italy, Denmark, Greece and Norway amongst others. Many of these F104s were built by the countries under license. A true classic of aviation, who needs wings when you've got power!
