Rodger Pettichord Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 During the Vietnam war, the Tweet was reconfigured for ground attack and did a very good job of it. As America pulled out, the Vietnamese Air Force received the tweets, and the Vietnamese pilots made good use of it. America then gave most of its remaining tweet fleet to the Guatemalan Air Force, where it was used effectively in counterinsurgency. It's one of those unsung planes that was a dandy but never caught the press attention. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
