DCS World - MiG-21 - Vietnam 1970 - Jolly Green Giant Down

On 28th of January 1970, an F-105G was shot down over North Vietnam. Both crew members eject and a CSAR mission is soon launched from Thailand. Jolly Green Giant helicopters wait near Laotian border for clearance into North Vietnam. However, they have no fighter cover and a pair of North Vietnamese MiG-21s takes them by surprise.

Some discrepancies between sources, especially about the F-105G shoot down. Nature of their mission varies, the cause of shootdown varies (a MiG-21 which is not likely or AAA which is more likely). Also, Istvan Toperczer gives a wrong serial number of the HH-53B shot down (66-14434 is correct)
