Nov 20, 2010 #19 renrich Chief Master Sergeant 3,882 66 Jan 19, 2007 Montrose, Colorado Many thanks for the great photos. My interest in the Vigilante was piqued and read an article online about the airplane. It had tremendous performance but had the highest loss rate of any Navy plane in VN because of the hazardous missions it flew.
