The OV-1 Mohawk Was The Vietnam War's Unlikeliest MiG Killer

One day in February 1968, a US Army pilot named Ken Lee was spotting targets just south of the DMZ when he was bounced by a MiG-17 Fresco of the VPAF. Minutes later, Ken Lee would become probably the unlikeliest MiG killer of the Vietnam War. This is his story and also that of the OV-1 Mohawk. Sources: In my view, "OV-1 Mohawk In Action" by Terry Love is the best single volume on the Mohawk. Out of print, but readily available "OV-1 Mohawk Walk Around" by Ken Neubeck is a really useful pictorial guide to the aircraft I used "Operators' Manual Army Models OV-1A, OV-1B and OV-1C Aircraft" (TM 55-1510-204-10) for detailed aspects of the early Mohawk I used "Operator's Manual OV-1D / RV-1D Aircraft" (TM 55-1510-213-10) for detailed aspects of the OV-1D The CIA document "The Mohawk Surveillance System" contains useful information on the SLAR/ IR configuration used in Vietnam (CIA-RDP79B01709A002200110012-4) The DTIC report "Conquest Of The Darkness By Management Of The Stars" by Dr Robert S. Wiseman is the only useful reference I found to the Seamore programme and the development of starlight scopes for use in Vietnam
