But if radar was available, you used it, right?





One of the few to make Ace in the Vienam conflict air war was a Navy pilot who finally admitted to some of his secrets to success with the F-4, years afterwards.

There were all these alarms in the stereo headset. Steady drone buzz in one ear indicating your Radar was aquiring a target, another higher pitched drone would happen in the other ear if your electronics deteced that someone had locked onto you, etc. etc. etc.

He said that as soon as he entered a hot area -- he'd turn all that crap OFF to eliminate the sensory overload possibilities and just concentrate on the immediate tasks at hand as they arose.
