Wild Weasel

Issue Number: 5559

During the Vietnam War, the skies above the unforgiving jungle were a dangerous place for American warplanes. Something that Captain Shannon “Vulcan” Sovndal and his RIO, Lieutenant Erik “Luger” Colnick, found out when Russian‑supplied SAMs used by the North Vietnamese Army shot down and killed their wingmen.

But the SAM sites would not have it all their own way. Vulcan and Luger were out for revenge with a group of aviators determined to destroy every SAM site they could. As long as the SAM sites remained a threat, the Wild Weasels would be there to hunt them down!
