Rare color negatives from Fighter Squadron VF-162 aboard USS Ticonderoga (CVA-14), capturing Cold War intercepts of Soviet Tu-95 "Bear" bombers over the South China Sea during the Vietnam War era. Attributed to a squadron commander, the collection also documents F-8 Crusader buddy tanking, air-to-air flight operations, and quiet moments of daily life aboard the carrier.
