Last fighter/bomber death by enemy fire?

[08Dawg]

Last bomber actually shot down was probably one of the D-model Buffs going into downtown Hanoi during Linebacker II.  I know of at least one G model that took an SA-2 hit during Desert Storm, but the crew and jet made it home.

A few AC-130's were downed over the Ho Chi Minh Trail during the Vietnam War as well

1. HH-60G, callsign Pedro66, was shot-down in the Helmand River Valley...not a fighter or bomber...sorry, I'm not sorry.  There was a lot of BDA on USAF helos.

Spirit 03 was the last (maybe only?) AC-130 shot down.

It happened during Desert Storm at the battle of Khafji in the early morning dawn. They stayed on station to service a call from the Marines and ended up getting hit with an SA-7. They crashed out to see with no survivors.

I am good friends and flew many times with the guy who left the states heading over on that crew as the Co-pilot. After they arrived in country there was a crew shuffle and he was put on another crew. One of the gunners was the son of a childhood friend of my mom.

Pedro 15 was also downed by enemy fire only 1.5 months after 66. The Army DART team had to put her out of her misery.
