Hmm... Your numbers are suspect. I'm off now to get mine. In the meantime
please verify.

Er, no. F-8, 6:1 (18:3). Navy F-4, 5.42:1 (38:7), mainly due to the

1972-73
sprint by Top Gun trained crews. Of course, these are our numbers, and

probably
include some overclaims as well as leave out some losses to MiGs that were
attributed to other threats or unknown causes.
