Description North American\'s RA-5C Vigilante represents the absolute zenith of Jet Age aerial Reconnaissance at Mach 2.
Because of their ultra-high-risk missions, Vigilantes suffered the highest.
The jet\'s two crewmen operated highly sophisticated sensors, cameras, infrared mapping, side-looking radar, and electronic countermeasure equipment.
The aircraft\'s history corresponds to the evolution of the war in Vietnam, where Vigilantes located targets and assessed post-strike damage.
