Flechettes... never knew the mini existed...

Because of the elevation in the central highlands, to carry enough fuel for a mission and get off the ground, our aircraft were configured with 19 pair inboard rocket pods and 7 pair outboard rocket pods. We always tried to carry flechettes outboard and 2.75" ffar, 10 lbs H E warheads inboard. SOG recon teams had lots of stories about NVA nailed to trees in the LZ. They were deadly but not allowed when close to friendlies.

Thank you for sharing this
