Like most things in life; it was neither a failure nor a success; it was a bit of both.
1. Considered a failure, because it did not discourage the North from continuing it's war against the South.
2. Considered a success, because it taught US airmen how to fight both AAA/SAM defenses and NVAF MiG jet aircraft. Lessons that would bring success for future campaigns.
