Rumour had it that the US radars lacked certain ECCM features and was vulnerable to the relatively unsophisticated hammers on the Vulcans. I heard they achieved hard kills on some of the systems and the height and speed did the rest.
Widely reported and spoken about in the crew room of 230 OCU B Sqdn circa '63-65. Especially amongst those who looked after the ECM.
