> I have a lot of respect for the U.S. Navy's sister services, but once the submarine-launched ballistic missile became fully operational in the very early 1960s, the USAF should have removed itself from the strategic weapons delivery scene except for delivery of high yield devices via missile. Cold War manned strategic bombers were superfluous except for Vietnam War arclight missions.............
