Wild Weasels are aircraft that are assigned the task of Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) in order to clear safe passage for a larger attack group of aircraft that are following behind. A Wild Weasel aircraft must bait enemy anti-aircraft defenses into targeting it with their radar, enabling the Weasel or its teammates to fire anti-radiation missiles that follow the radar waves back to their source, eliminating the threat. The EF-4C Wild Weasel was derived from the F-4C Phantom II, equipped with advanced radar detection and jamming equipment along with AGM-45 Shrike or AGM-78 Standard ARM missiles. Together with F-105Gs the EF-4C aircraft was used extensively in Vietnam during Operations Linebacker protecting aircraft strikes in southern North Vietnam. During Linebacker II the Weasel crews supported numerous B-52 strikes against targets in Hanoi one of the most heavily defended places on the planet. Designed as a fleet defense fighter for the US Navy, the F-4 Phantom was first flown on May 27, 1958. This twin-engine, long-range all-weather fighter/bomber proved highly adaptable and served in the Marine Corps and the US Air Force as well as in the Navy. During the Vietnam War, it was the principal air superiority fighter for the Navy and the Air Force and was also used for reconnaissance and ground attack. The Phantom continued to serve well into the 1970s and 1980s and even flew missions during the first Gulf War. Finally phased out by the F-14, F-16 and F/A-18, the Phantom was retired in 1996.
