Hey fun fact, it's 1965, Air forces around the world relied on their guns more often, to get kills in dogfights rather than a2a missiles. This is because the missiles had poor tracking abilities and were often unreliable against an enemy who knows of their presence. Its not like today where we have all aspect bvr missiles with a range of 105km+It will sump to think that Aircraft's are Equipped with missiles but will not going to fire and will shoot by Gun.
Even I am 100% sure that no airforce gives the training to their pilots that way.
A2a missiles back then were rear aspect heat seeking missiles with a range of 4km. Just ask the Americans during Vietnam.
