Sorry to break into the thread, but a question for a Vig driver:
I'd often been told a reason for the Vig being moved to the recon role was that the aft bomb bay had a tendency for the weapon to 'follow' the aircraft in the slipstream. It sounds like a good story, but I would find it difficult to accept that this was never highlighted during weapons trials. Comments? Thanks... gunnysarge wrote: which squadron did you fly with during cuban crisis?Any good stories? jr martin Red Rider Wrote: I am still a kid.
