EF-111A Raven flying past the Rock of Gibraltar

The decision to send EF-111 escorts nearly tore the Air Force apart. Brig. Gen. Buster Glosson, the primary planner of the allied air campaign, argued the jamming could alert the Iraqis to the "invisible" threat. But the F-117 community refused to fly into Baghdad's SAM-saturated meatgrinder without backup. In the end, the pilots won: the F-117s flew with EF-111s. The mission succeeded - but that night, it wasn’t all silent or stealthy. 2/2

Flight Highschool Chapter 30
Anyan’s notes:
A chapter of flight highschool after all of this time! I was going to do a different chapter but I really wanted to do one on F-111 and EF-111 so I switched it up real fast. I planned things ahead of time, but I’ve been inserting character who haven’t got their own chapter into each chapter. It feels like Lightning’s presence is diminishing by the day...
I’d been using the Hornet and Super Hornet as one character, and I didn’t think that was appropriate so I’ve split them into two. The old character is now the Super Hornet, and the newer, smaller character with shorter bangs is the Hornet. She has a hive-shaped hairpin, so please be aware of the difference!
Maybe I should make experimental aircraft like the X-53 have an appearance (lol).It feels like aircraft that I originally considered as one are diverging. This time I tried making 4komas that have a continuity.I’ve been trying to reduce the length but it’s pretty hard ^^;;;
Anywho, #30 is about the well known American attack aircraft F-111 Aardvark. When it was in development, the Navy and Air Force both pledged to use it. But the Navy version F-111B had 7 made and it was abandoned. Aardvark’s swimsuit is nothing but a pipe dream now. And as you know, the F-111’s air-to-air abilities are almost negligible even though it has an ‘F’ designation, as with the Nighthawk.Aardvark’s sister EF-111 is an electronic warfare aircraft; unlike her successor Growler, I made her kind of a weird character.Dump-and-burn is a way of dumping fuel by dumping and literally lighting it on fire behind the airframe--essentially fireworks. The Australian Air Force liked to do it.They even did it during the closing ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
An-2’s moonwalk is of course the story that it could have negative ground speed during strong headwinds. Sasuga An-2...
