Wild Weasels?

Has anything definitive or semi-definitive been written about the Wild Weasel operations over N Vietnam? I know about Broughton and a slew of others but nothing there specific to their history.

Re: Wild Weasels?

For a start try Squadron/Signal "Wild Weasel:The SAM Suppression Story" by Larry Davis. Good history and a lot of photos.

Re: Wild Weasels?

Still on my "to-read" list, so can't tell you about the book yet:"Wild Weasel Fighter Attack: The Story of the Suppression of Enemy Air Defences" by Thomas Withington, published 2008 (Pen & Sword). Covers the Viet Nam era and afterwards.

Regards, ...geoff

Re: Wild Weasels?

I think I have somewhere official report of electronic counter measure and warfare in Vietnam but must dig it out. You need it for research?
