"Strafe Settings" Reference Page, F-4 Phantom Weapons Delivery Checklist – Da Nang, Vietnam Era
A "Strafe Settings" reference page from a fighter pilot's weapons-delivery checklist, used by F-4 Phantom II aircrew flying out of Da Nang Air Base during the Vietnam War. Tables like this converted dive angle, altitude, and airspeed into precise gunsight mil settings, allowing pilots to accurately deliver strafing fire against ground targets during close air support missions.
