The F-100 Super Sabre Was An Unappreciated Warrior Aircraft

You would think that an aircraft that flew over 360,000 combat missions would have earned a place in the list of great fighting aircraft. But that is not the case with North American Aviation's F-100 Super Sabre. Instead, it is a sometimes forgotten and often ridiculed aviation footnote. The Hun deserves more time in the limelight. This video goes deep into its development, capabilities and combat service in Vietnam.

Amongst the many books I read in researching this video:

"North American F-100 Super Sabre" by Peter E Davies is the best single volume on the F-100

"North American F-100 Super Sabre" by David A Anderton is also an excellent read and a good second purchase
