Скачать или смотреть How Britain’s Sea Vixen Humiliated the U.S. Navy in Secret Exercises

During a Cold War naval exercise, the U.S. Navy believed it was in complete control. Their carrier group, layered defenses, and interceptors were prepared for any scenario… except one: a single, aging British jet moving where radar could barely see it.

The RAF de Havilland Sea Vixen wasn’t fast or modern, but it was built for one purpose — low-level penetration and precision timing. Flying at wave-top height, it exploited radar gaps, compressed reaction windows, and repeatedly demonstrated that doctrine, not technology alone, dictates victory.

This cinematic military aviation documentary uncovers the story of the Sea Vixen Run — how an “obsolete” British fighter repeatedly humiliated the U.S. Navy, reshaping training, doctrine, and respect for British ingenuity.
