You gotta be shittin' me.\"\n\nThe acronym stuck. YGBSM became the unofficial motto of the Wild Weasels \u2014 the US Air Force's SAM-hunting crews who volunteered to fly directly at the thing that was trying to kill everyone else.\n\n\n<div style=\"background:#f5f5f5;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:18px 22px;margin:20px 0 28px;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0\">\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 10px;font-weight:700;color:#333;font-size:17px\">Quick Facts &mdash; Wild Weasels<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:4px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Mission:<\/strong> SEAD &mdash; Suppression of Enemy Air Defences<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:4px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Motto:<\/strong> \"First In, Last Out\" (official) \/ YGBSM (unofficial)<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:4px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>First kill:<\/strong> 22 December 1965, Captains Allen Lamb &amp; Jack Donovan<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:4px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Aircraft:<\/strong> F-100F (WW I), <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/f-105-thunderchief\">F-105F<\/a>\/G (WW III), <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/f-4-phantom-ii\">F-4C<\/a> (WW IV), F-4G (WW V), <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/f-16-fighting-falcon\">F-16CJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:4px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Key weapon:<\/strong> AGM-45 Shrike anti-radiation missile<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">The SAM Problem<\/h2>\n\nIn July 1965, a Soviet SA-2 Guideline missile shot down an American F-4C over North Vietnam. It was the first SAM kill of the war, and it changed everything. US strike packages had been flying predictable routes at predictable altitudes \u2014 easy targets for a radar-guided missile that could reach 60,000 feet. Losses began to mount. The Air Force needed a way to kill the SAM sites. Nobody had ever done it before.\n\nWild Weasel I was born in November 1965: modified two-seat F-100F Super Sabres fitted with radar homing and warning receivers that could detect SAM radar emissions. The concept was simple and suicidal \u2014 fly toward the radar signal, provoke the site into shooting, and destroy it with bombs or the new AGM-45 Shrike anti-radiation missile, which homed on the SAM's own radar beam.\n\n\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IdC-PiUKGR0\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">First Kill<\/h2>\n\nOn 22 December 1965, Captains Allen Lamb (pilot) and Jack Donovan (electronic warfare officer) scored the first Wild Weasel SAM kill northwest of Hanoi. The tactic worked: fly at the radar, force it to track you, and attack \u2014 Lamb destroyed the site with 2.75-inch rockets and 20&nbsp;mm cannon fire. The margin for error was measured in seconds.\n\nBy 1966, the programme had moved to the Republic F-105F Thunderchief \u2014 a two-seat variant of the fast, heavy fighter-bomber that bore the brunt of Rolling Thunder. The \"Thud\" was faster than the F-100 and could carry both Shrikes and conventional bombs, allowing Weasel crews to suppress a SAM site and then bomb it on the same pass. The F-105G followed with improved electronic warfare systems.\n\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">First In, Last Out<\/h2>\n\nThe Wild Weasels' operational doctrine \u2014 \"First In, Last Out\" \u2014 was exactly what it sounded like. Before any strike package entered defended airspace, the Weasels went in first to find and suppress the SAM sites. While the bombers hit their targets, the Weasels orbited overhead, keeping the SAM operators busy. After the strikers egressed, the Weasels stayed behind to cover the withdrawal.\n\nIt was the most dangerous job in combat aviation. SAM sites shot back. Triple-A filled the sky at low altitude. And the Weasels had to fly predictable profiles \u2014 toward the threat \u2014 while every other aircraft in the formation was flying away from it. The crews who volunteered for Wild Weasel duty knew exactly what they were signing up for. Donovan's four-letter reaction was not bravado. It was an accurate assessment.\n\n\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #d32f2f;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;You want me to fly in the back of a tiny little jet with a crazy fighter pilot who thinks he's invincible, home in on a SAM site in North Vietnam, and shoot it before it shoots me?
