The US Navy flew Kifirs from Oceania Naval Air Station (Virginia Beach) for combat maneuvering training purposes in the late 1980's. I've got a picture of one in US Navy markings somewhere that I took during an open house.


I thought the Navy used them as dissimilar aggressors or is that what combat maneuvering training is in Navy lingo?


ACM and they didn't last long, maint nightmare and short airframe life, then again we bent the schit out of them smile

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
