Original caption: "Phantom Strike - an air force F4C Phantom crew dives on a target on North Vietnam. During the past year, Phantom crews flew missions over North and South Vietnam. In the North, while flying MIG cover for Strike aircraft, F-4C crews downed nine MIG jets, including one supersonic MIG-21. Phantom crews also flew close air support and other missions in the south and logged most of the Air Force's night strikes against military targets in the north."
