General Note

This is the 4th tape in the series featuring a continuation of the round table discussion of a group of F-105 pilots who have completed their tours or are about to complete their final missions.

Items discussed include command being too remote; armament on the F-105; pilots in the field being not in on developments; the planning level of command should fly a mission once in a while; tactics are World War II tactics; too many aircraft being out before the strike aircraft; too many aircraft on target; flak suppression; the SA-3 surface-to-air missile; the F-105 in the small arms environment; and standardization not being valid in combat (must have more freedom and latitude, especially fighter aircraft). The last part of the tape is a mission that was recorded while the mission was in progress.
