    Did the commentator just describe Phantoms as "agile fighters"?

    Not a phrase you hear every day :)

    What a typical and stupid Washington D.C. policy to not allow bombing of the North Vietnamese Air bases...

    Oh yeah, after the war, you saw the how the Marshall Plan helped Western Berlin and it's amazing what 50+ Years of Communism did for the former Soviet Bloc states. I've been to Eastern Europe and it was a shithole.

    War's over man. There were no SS Luftwaffe Squadrons, all German atrocities happened on the ground. The Luftwaffe, like the Wermacht weren't Nazi's but professional soldiers. Do you homework Russian. Germany is prosperous & a world power now & I loved being there so fuck you Commie!

    Dingo, the F4 was a high speed interceptor designed to shoot down Russian bombers with missiles. They eventually were fitted with a gun pod underneath the fuselage. And the later models were fitted with a gun. The doctrine of SAC was a lot different before they became involved in the Vietnam War. You can't jam a heat seeker, but you can force it to break lock. RADAR guided is a bit harder but can be done as well.
