Regarding the Bat-21 episode of the Vietnam War
How was the EB-66 shot down if it should have been able to identify and jam missile frequencies? Did the NVA use a new, hitherto unknown, system?
I read two EB-66s were in that sortie. Is there an assessment report on the incident? |

See wiki:
LTC Iceal E Hambleton Rescue of Bat 21 The SAMs that downed the EB-66 came from an unexpected direction. See the book: The Rescue of Bat 21 |

There is a detailed assessment that "may" fall into the 'more than I wanted to know' category. It is long.
