Gained: 1. Jet warfare experience (includes SAMs and other air defense systems) and jet aircraft technology. The Vietnam War was America's only hi-performance super sonic jet war; this is discounting "target practice" against third rate adversaries which occurred periodically after the war. 2. Combat experience with combustible main gun tank shells; as fired in combat by the M551 Sheridan light tank (152mm main gun) in Vietnam. Today's current M1 Abrams MBT uses a modified semi-combustible 120mm tank shell.

Losses: 1. Casualties/equipment/prestige. 2. Loss of a free nation (Republic of South Vietnam). Score one victory for communism during the cold war.
