I know ex-RAAF Canberra crews who flew spy missions against Indonesia during Confrontation. Lonely missions, without escort, at a time when Indonesia had Russian SAMs & MIGs in considerable numbers. They operated from both Darwin and Butterworth.

I'd guess P3's and F111's have poked their noses about since- certainly during Timor operations.
