  • The Phantom Menace: the F-4 in Air Combat in Vietnam
    THE PHANTOM MENACE: THE F-4 IN AIR COMBAT IN VIETNAM Michael W. Hankins Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2013 APPROVED: Robert Citino, Major Professor Michael Leggiere, Committee Member Christopher Fuhrmann, Committee Member Richard McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Hankins, Michael W. The Phantom Menace: The F-4 in Air Combat in Vietnam. Master of Science (History), August 2013, 161 pp., 2 illustrations, bibliography, 84 titles. The F-4 Phantom II was the United States' primary air superiority fighter aircraft during the Vietnam War. This airplane epitomized American airpower doctrine during the early Cold War, which diminished the role of air-to-air combat and the air superiority mission. As a result, the F-4 struggled against the Soviet MiG fighters used by the North Vietnamese Air Force. By the end of the Rolling Thunder bombing campaign in 1968, the Phantom traded kills with MiGs at a nearly one-to-one ratio, the worst air combat performance in American history. The aircraft also regularly failed to protect American bombing formations from MiG attacks. A bombing halt from 1968 to 1972 provided a chance for American planners to evaluate their performance and make changes. The Navy began training pilots specifically for air combat, creating the Navy Fighter Weapons School known as "Top Gun" for this purpose. The Air Force instead focused on technological innovation and upgrades to their equipment. The resumption of bombing and air combat in the 1972 Linebacker campaigns proved that the Navy's training practices were effective, while the Air Force's technology changes were not, with kill ratios becoming worse.

  • Keepsakes from Korea
    They were common, everyday items back then. Now they bring back memories of an uncommon time. KeepsakesKeepsakes FromFrom KoreaKorea Photography by Paul Kennedy Pieces of Korean War history run the gamut from entire fighter aircraft to more modest sized memorabilia like this elaborately painted cap. It belonged to 2nd Lt. Clifford Allison Jr., who flew 100 missions in an F-84E with the 154th Fighter–Bomber Squad- ron (Arkansas Air National Guard), from July 1951 to March 1952. This colorful jacket belonged to SSgt. Norman Fix. He was a radio operator on B-29s with the 345th Bomb Squadron, Yokota AB, Japan, during the Korean War. Even today, such embroidered jackets are de rigueur with troops in the Far East. 32 AIR FORCE Magazine / December 2000 The name on this flight suit says it all. With a total of 34.5 victories, Col. Francis S. Gabreski heads the list of AAF and USAF aces with victories in both World War II and the Korean War. Gabby posed for this photo with his F-86 in September 1951. He had just shot down his second MiG-15. AIR FORCE Magazine / December 2000 33 Painting on leather jackets was an art form that carried over from World War II into the jet age. However, many pilots put away their leathers in favor of newer, warmer garments like the short N-2A flying jacket on the far left. Pride in a new separate service is evident in the artwork on the “spring up” cap above. At left, the “Ike” jacket shows up in its new Air Force blue.

The entry of the Chinese and Soviet communist forces and Photo by Phil Hunt weapons into the war created difficulties for American forces, particularly with the introduction of the swept-wing MiG-15. In December 1950, the US, realizing the possibility of losing control of the skies, quickly rushed three squadrons of F-86 Sabres to the Far East. At right, the 16th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron’s A Flight departs MiG Al- ley—an area near the Yalu River in North Korea famed for air-to-air combat.

Thompson of the 39th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron. Thompson shot down a MiG-15 that had a dragon painted on its side and, on returning to Suwon, had a similar image painted on his Sabre. Thompson is credited with two MiG kills. The F-86 Sabre was superior to the MiG- 15 in its turns and dives, but the MiG had better acceleration and rate of climb and could reach higher altitudes.

  • THE AIR FORCE, 1947 to 2007
    THE FIRST 60 YEARS THE AIR FORCE, 1947 to 2007 DECEMBER 2006 The Air Force Association The Air Force Association (AFA) and its affiliate Aerospace Education Foundation (AEF) consolidated in 2006 to blend the two organizations into one with an incredible amount of value added to our programs and for members and prospective members. The mission of AFA has always been to EDUCATE the public about the critical role of aerospace power in the defense of our nation, to ADVOCATE aerospace power and a strong national defense, and to SUPPORT the United States Air Force and the Air Force family. The new AFA will still maintain this mission but will include a much stronger focus on education, specifically the importance of science and math for the future of our country’s national defense, and providing scholarship support for our Air Force family. Through this, we will support our airmen and their families as well as the many who are touched by our education outreach programs. The consolidation of our two organizations allows AFA to become a 501(c)(3) charitable educational organization, in which all donations are tax deductible. With your help we will be able to expand our programs and their impact on those who participate in them. We need your support and ongoing financial commitment to realize our potential. AFA disseminates information through Air Force Magazine, Air Force Magazine Online, the Eaker Institute, public outreach, and national conferences and symposia. Learn more about AFA by visiting us on the Web at www.AFA.org.
