Descriptionof U.S. Aviation and Naval Weapons in the Vietnam War
Manufacturer

During the Vietnam war, the US Air Force, Navy, Marines and the Army flew a variety of fixed wing aircraft against innumerable targets in Vietnam, occasionally engaging North Vietnamese MiGs, but more often facing the threat of Surface to Air Missiles (SAM) or anti-aircraft fire. In over 5 million missions during the war, US forces lost over 2000 aircrafts.

This photo essay looks at the men and aircrafts that comprised American airpower during the war. Among the aircrafts shown are the A-1 Skyraider, A-7 Corsair, B-52, C-130, C-141, F-105, F-4 Phantom, and OV-1 Mohawk. The US Navy controlled the waters off Vietnam, employing not only aircraft carriers to support the air war, but also surface vessels ranging from the battleship USS New Jersey down to destroyers, which supported ground forces with heavy naval gunfire.
