That's a fairly blatant advert when a AIM-9B would have been up to the job. Shame we didn't get to splash a couple of those 707s. Cardiff did actually engage one t a land Coventry had a certain kill until her flash doors failed safe again.

Hale would probably have been less trouble had he encountered a Mirage III since its radar had no look-down capability over land and probably would not have been able to get a lock on the shars below it.
