  • Военная зона D (англ. War Zone D) — название одного из районов Южного Вьетнама во время войны во Вьетнаме в 1960—1970-е годы. Военная зона D располагалась северо-восточнее Сайгона и занимала всю северную часть провинции Кханьхоа. Этот район считался одним из оплотов партизан НФОЮВ, находившихся под коммунистическим контролем с 1940-х годов. Название появилось ещё в период колониальной войны Франции, и его происхождение неизвестно. Здесь в июне—июле 1965 года были проведены первые наступательные операции войск США во время Вьетнамской войны. Кроме того, для бомбардировки объектов НФОЮВ в этом районе в июне 1965 года США впервые использовали стратегические бомбардировщики B-52. (ru)
