High quality reprint of this recently declassified 1968 eport. "The
War in Vietnam--July - December 1967" summarizes and provides an
overall look at the Air Force role in North and South Vietnam for
the semi- annual period. It is a continuation of the summary of Air
Force operations first detailed in "The War in Vietnam - 1965."
ROLLING THUNDER gradually increased the weight of effort against a
broadening, but still limited, target complex. The high incidence
of radar-directed guns and SA-2s in the extended battle area also
required changes in tactics by strike and reconnaissance forces.
Close air support was instrumental in breaking the enemy attacks on
Dak To, Loc Ninh, and Bo Duc, often by putting ordnance within 20
feet of prepared Allied positions. Airlift units retained their
basic organizational structure and successfully supported the
Allied requirements at Loc Ninh and Dak To. Flying safety was the
paramount problem confronting the Vietnamese Air Force (VNAF), and
by August, aircraft losses due to pilot error exceeded combat
losses, until finally an intensive instrument training program was
initiated. The denial of crops through herbicide destruction often
placed a severe strain on the enemy supply system, forcing the
North Vietnamese Army (NVA) out of their normal operating areas.
Enemy attacks against air bases with a steadily improving rocket
capability continued to present formidable problems. Successful
efforts were made during the period to substantially increase the
B-52 monthly sortie rate to keep pressure on the enemy's supply and
infiltration system, while at the same time blocking his efforts to
mass along the DMZ.
