RAF added to Vietnam 1984 Campaign

Recommended Posts

After doing reasearch I believe that NO 74 Squadron below would be the perfect unit to add to the Vietnam 1984 campaign. This unit will be carrier based.

 

 

November 1984 - No 74 Squadron reforms at Wattisham with the delivery of the first of the F4J Phantoms, given the RAF designation Phantom F3. The new fighter Phantoms are ex-US Navy aircraft de singed to fill the gap in the UK Air Defence capability, created by the need to provide full time cover on the Falklands, until the full deployment of the Tornado F3.
