Dear All - in Vietnam two aircraft were suited more than others to the interception role - the Crusader and Phantom.
The F-100 Super Sabre , F-102 Delta Dagger , F-104 Starfighter were not successful against Mig fighters !!!
Only the two were better significantly with a combination of armament
and Maneuverability for both accordingly .
A link below deals with the topic who is the better fighter of the two.
