Phantom Upgrades

I was reading about the THK the other day and I came across a little blurb on wikipedia that mentioned that TAI was upgrading Turkey’s regular F-4E’s (non-2020 variants) for…and I quote…”optimization in air-to-air capabilities.”

Anyone know anything about this? I mentions that 48 will be upgraded which is curious because I believe at one point in time IAI was trying to get a bid to upgrade 48 more F-4’s in addition to the 54 that went through the 2020 upgrade. Obviously, this fell through, but I felt the need to ask and see if anyone had heard anything about additional Turkish F-4 upgrades.

I remember also reading a while back that the RF-4E fleet would be updated.

Can anyone comment on further F-4E upgrades as well as the status of the RF-4E upgrade?
