True, although many USMC squadrons and some Navy squadrons tinkered with the external Mk4 gun pod. Dunno if the Marines ever used them in VN…pretty sure the Navy didn't. I've seen pics of Marine Phantoms carrying four of the suckers...I don't think USN Phantoms ever had an internal gun.
I think a Air Force D got a kill with a center line pod. But it was an abortion. RAT powered, jammed (as CAT mentioned), and swayed like anything else mounted on a hard point.
