    Looks quite large, more like a medium bomber.

    Not really, just looks like a single seat fighter bomber als F-105.

    On the way to work early this morning I saw a woman who was clearly quite unbalanced, screaming at everyone and no-one something about “WELL YOU DON’T LIVE IN A FIRE!! DO YOU? YOU DON’T ACTUALLY LIVE IN A FIRE, FOR F- SAKE!!!”Haven’t a clue what she was so furious about but she was about as angry as anyone can get. Last I saw she was going in a convenience store and causing quite a commotion, and I couldn’t help thinking how lucky we are in the UK not to have the right to bear arms,otherwise I’d probably be an item on tonight’s news.

    Hmmm, kinda-sorta sounds like all the zombie movies are based on where you live by your fears.

    Your deep knowledge/familiarity with smaller jet engines (combined with RATO-bottles if needed) as well as the Indians previous “mini-fighter”, De Hallivand Gnat, wouldn’t make you any less interesting to the
    But stay away from the Iranis!

    Is this an old episode of the Benny Hill Show?

    I think most Lightning models fitted with guns had just the twin 30-mm cannons (nose in early models, ventral tank front section in the F.6)…right?

    The early ones had two nose guns, F3 had none, the F2A hand both nose and ventral guns and the F6 had two ventral guns.
    All had various ventral packages, one being 44 two inch rockets.

    the NVA pilots would’ve been able to kickass.

    I think it wouldn’t have made difference either. As said above, it would have been a stripped down version with K-13s and R-60s
    It would have been a mistake for Vietnam to get those birds at that time.

    the idea did cross my mind few times though. Its is one of my 10 favorite birds for sure.

    Of coarse SA-3 would have made all the difference! It would have been a total game changer. But that’s a different topic for sure.

    Later Soviet versions of Mig-23 I think would have made actual difference for sure, if they were implemented in time (so technically speaking).

    cheers

    Had it actually made a serious dent affecting the air war, the USAF had camouflage pattern developed for the F-106 interceptor, and probably would have sent it.

    It was never sent as the fighters there were never seriously challenged.

    Unlike the fighters there, the Six performance did not change with the drop tanks, as all its performance figures were for a fully loaded aircraft.
    It was the only U.S. aircraft the Mig-21 could not turn inside of, plus radar system far superior to anything used in “Nam.
    It also had very, very long legs, even without tanks, and could have kept on fighting well past the point where the other planes there were already searching for a tanker.

    They must come severely unstuck, if the householder uses the old-fangled bath, then.

    No they probably go some where else.

    A slow lumbering fossile of a huge RCS and no search radar that can launch, wait for it……..Harpoon.
    Gimme a break

    Read or better yet, find a net area where you can communicate with people who have flown against them in Red Flag.

    The forum is all google-eyed with the new paper wonder gimmicks planes are supposedly going to be using, well these are real war birds with real equipment that does a real job.

    To sit there and poo-poo something out of ignorance, well ignorance is bliss.
    Of course a military not run by morons never informs as to what its capabilities truly are, or are not, so maybe the responses here are the desired effect.
