Ooops, I edited the subject line like a good boy and then ignored it in
my post. The original source for this subthread was Yeff's "the F-15
has a better Hollywood agent", the only mention of "fighters" was my own.

I submit that the only movie to feature an Intruder deserves an
honorable mention at least, even if it was somewhat tepid.

From the comfort of my armchair, I have always had a sneaking feeling
that the use of "the right tool for the job" (ground attack, including
at night or in bad weather) should have paid dividends over hanging
bombs off of the previous generation of fighters, which seems to have
been the way the majority of tactical bombing was done (correct me if
I'm wrong). There are posters here who did it for real; what is your
assessment of the A-6? Was it better at delivering the ordnance than,
say, an F-4 or F-105? Defining better (roughly) in terms of factors
such as bomb weight delivered on target, accuracy of delivery, and
chances of completing the mission in one piece?
