I got a similar brief at Miramar in ‘78. We were told if you engage it, shoot it down, because you’re not going to successfully run from it.When I was a young ensign going through VA-174, the A-7 RAG at NAS Cecil Field in the fall of '77, the Constant Peg guys were doing a road show at all of the Navy bases, briefing everybody on what they'd learned. We had a "Secret" briefing for all pilots (A-7 didn't need no stinkin' NFO's ?) at the base theater. The one thing I remember about it was it wasn't going to turn with anybody and no one was going to run it down because it was so fast.
