The Vietnam War was not an official war, but rather a conflict. The United States never officially declared war on North Vietnam, but placed troops in South Vietnam to aid the troops and Government of South Vietnam. This is why the United States "lost" the war, because their hands were tied in and unofficial conflict. In many ways, it was also a proxy war between the Soviet Union and the United States, both testing new weaponry against each others best, and sending men in whether it was to take part in combat or to advise the local military. Soviet involvement was limited, but involved the arming of the North Vietnamese with modern Soviet equipment, as advisors, and in a few isolated circumstances as combat pilots.
