Stuart Galbraith Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 First glance, these are quite interesting. I believe these are the reports generated by Project Red Baron, the analysis the USAF did on air combat in Vietnam.http://www.dtic.mil/docs/citations/ADC003627http://www.dtic.mil/docs/citations/ADC003628http://www.dtic.mil/docs/citations/ADC003629 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawes Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Seems that whenever MANPADS are introduced (SA-7 in South Vietnam, Stinger in Afghanistan) it has a significant impact on opposing air forces (or at least their tactics). So far, present-day Afghanistan seems to be MANPADS-free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RETAC21 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Not necessarily but it makes planes that previously were nigh invulnerable take care when doing their runs. Also depends on the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
