The Phantom F-4K FG in video

Hello,I recently watched this video promo http://www.flyingstations.com/ark-royal.html about the Ark Royale 4 at Flying stations fsx website,and there is a Phantom F-4K FG.1 Jet in it,I noticed the landing gear raising up when it's attached to the catapult,and thought that is really cool,does anybody know where to buy,or download that specific Jet in the video?Thanks
 
It is an old Alphasim FS9 model, you can download it now from the Freeware Site at Virtavia.com - scroll down the list and look for file "Virtavia_F-4_Phantom_II_FS9.msi". FSX/A carrier ops are possible after adding this [launch_assistance] section to the aircraft.cfg file:

[launch_assistance]
// supports FSX Acceleration carrier launch
launch_bar_pivot=21.0, 0.00, -5.5
launch_bar_lug =22.5, 0.00, -6.5
 
There are a couple that might fit the bill.. both at flightsim.com. Look for:

Actually I think it was the IRIS FSX model that was discontinued, the video must be at least 5 years old...
Are you sure? The flyable Phantom in the video has the early tail without the RWR housing. The IRIS models all have the late tail with RWR, the Alphasim Royal Navy model has the early tail without RWR.
 
Here's the old Iris Phantom..

Not sure I am looking at the same video and aircraft but the F-4K I see with the nose strut rising on the cat is an AI Phantom that I also have set up on the Ark Royal.
 
Having now watched the video (don't have flash on my laptop so can't see the embedded one) I'm certain it's the Iris one. Mainly because it's the only one I've had and the video was enough of a memory jog to remember making it! Plus I don't have an AI one.
