John Duncan waxed lyrical news:3F307E50.9060603
@ausi.com:


In the unrealistic above event how would ancient F-111s perform ?


Badly.


Please provide evidence that the F-111 would fare badly in such a
scenario. It's history, raw performance, avionics and PGM ability would
suggest it would perform rathger better than "badly". First flew in hwta?
1964? NEarly forty years on there are still only a handful of types that
can match or exceed it for specific capability.
