I was stationed at kaduna for 5 years.... The “habu” was a regular site. I miss that roar, and those afterburners at night...
I was near Kadena (sp?) in ‘71-72 and saw the Habu once in awhile. One day one of them took off and pointed it’s nose straight up and whoosh! Out of site straight up in nothin’ flat. Never saw anything like that before or since. AMAZING
