The "Battle of Britain" was nearly identical to the US air offensive against North Vietnam during the Vietnam war. During the battle of Britain German twin engine bombers and ME109 fighters bombed England while the British Hawker Hurricanes and Spitfires went up to meet them. Many German airmen became POWs in the UK as a consequence. During the Vietnam War the USAF & USN air units bombed North VN with 8 engine heavy bombers (B52s) and the usual fighter bombers (F100 Super Sabres, F105 Thunderchiefs, A4 Skyhawks, etc.) escorted by F4s, F104 Starfighters, F8 Crusaders, F102 Delta Daggers (RF101 Voodoos conducted reconnaissance missions), etc. NVAF MiG17s, MiG19s, and MiG21s went up to meet them. Many American airmen became POWs in North Vietnam as a consequence. In both wars, the defenders (British & North VN) performed INTERCEPTOR operations against BOMBERS.
