Actually, the F-4 had a higher kill ratio.
Er, no. F-8, 6:1 (18:3). Navy F-4, 5.42:1 (38:7), mainly due to the 1972-73
sprint by Top Gun trained crews. Of course, these are our numbers, and probably
include some overclaims as well as leave out some losses to MiGs that were
attributed to other threats or unknown causes.
