Operation Bolo was a United States Air Force mission during the Vietnam War, considered to be a successful combat ruse. The mission was a response to the heavy losses sustained during the Operation Rolling Thunder aerial-bombardment campaign of 1966, during which Vietnam People's Air Force fighter jets had evaded U.S. escort fighters and attacked U.S. bombers flying predictable routes. On January 2, 1967, U.S. Air Force F-4 Phantom II multirole fighters flew a mission along flight paths typically used by the bombers during Rolling Thunder. The ruse drew an attack by Vietnamese Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 interceptors, whose pilots expected to find heavily loaded fighter-bombers. Instead, they were met by the far more agile F-4s, which shot down seven of the MiGs.

  • L'opération Bolo est une action militaire américaine de la guerre du Viêt Nam qui se déroule le 2 janvier 1967. Au cours de cette opération, des chasseurs McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II sont maquillés en chasseurs-bombardiers Republic F-105 Thunderchief pour piéger les avions de combat Mikoyan-Gourevitch MiG-21 de la force aérienne populaire vietnamienne. L'opération Bolo est un succès, et passe pour l'un des subterfuges les plus réussis de l'histoire militaire. (fr)
  • Операция «Боло» (англ. Operation Bolo) — операция ВВС США в ходе Вьетнамской войны, направленная на ликвидацию угрозы со стороны северовьетнамских истребителей МиГ-21. В ходе операции американская авиация провела один из своих наиболее успешных воздушных боёв за всю войну. (ru)
  • Operace Bolo byla úspěšná operace amerických vzdušných sil ve vietnamské válce, která měla za úkol zredukovat údernou sílu vietnamského letectva, které způsobovalo neúměrné ztráty americkým bombardérům. Proběhla 2. ledna 1967 a americké stíhačky F-4 Phantom II si při ní zahrály na bombardéry, čímž vylákaly ke střetu vietnamské MiGy-21. Následná vzdušná bitva vyústila v podstatnou redukci a ochromení vietnamského stíhacího letectva, které přiznalo ztrátu 5 z 16 strojů MiG-21 (američtí piloti si ovšem nárokovali sedm sestřelů). Americká strana ztráty neměla. (cs)
