I still cant believe it!

F-100D somwhere deep over Ost Germany in 1962 and my flight of 4 gets jumped by Mig 19's and 17's I get a tail on a 19 and good tone at about 1/8th a mile (Usually allot farther than I would let a 9B rip) and send two figuring that I would make him jink and close the distance to a gun kill. First one fly off the rail into the abyss as usual but the second seems to track. He breaks hard left still tracking then he levels and dives still tracking then he pulls vertical and its still tracking! I can see it climbing slowly up to meet his hot exhaust and....Boom Mig Kill!

 

I have never seen an Aim9B so determined! Not bad when you add it up, 99 duds and 1 super missile lol.

I've seen a 9J do that to a QF-100D one time but since it had such a crappy warhead it only flaked the paint off
