Reddit reviews Magnum! The Wild Weasels in Desert Storm: The Elimination of Iraq's Air Defence

While that is exciting, to me, the epitome of the fighter pilot is the Wild Weasel role. As a Weasel, here's what you do. You go up into enemy territory and bait the Surface to Air Missile (SAM) systems into turning on their radar. When their radar comes on, you fire your HARM (High-Speed Anti Radiation Missile) that tracks that radar and goes down to destroy. Meanwhile, you are on the lookout for SAM launches and then defeating all the missiles that are launched on you. Now, imagine expending all your missiles, going back landing, rearming and then going back up into enemy air and doing the same thing.

If you find this interesting, I'd highly recommend reading these books :

1. Viper Pilot: A Memoir of Air Combat
   
2. Magnum! The Wild Weasels in Desert Storm. The Elimination of Iraq's Air Defence
   
3. The Hunter Killers: The Extraordinary Story of the First Wild Weasels, the Band of Maverick Aviators Who Flew the Most Dangerous Missions of the Vietnam War

Surprised I haven't seen it here:

Magnum! The Wild Weasels in Desert Storm.

Its not quite on par with Viper Pilot, but I think it's a close second. An excellent narrative of the the transition between the Vietnam and Gulf War (also includes the Gulf War).

Very enlightening stuff, would read before Viper for a better chronological order.

Do you recall which one it was?

These are some of my favorites...
