I've just been trying to work it out using Wikipedia and now it's really bugging me.
Early 60s large supersonic fighter/bomber, turned out to be rubbish, but found a second career as a reconnaissance plane in Vietnam.
Really pretty - used to be one on the USS Intrepid museum in New York.
I have a book on the damn thing at home but it's gone out of my head....

Come to think of it it's a bit harsh to exclude reconnaissance from the definition of combat. If it's a reconnaissance aircraft doing it's stuff and gets shot at, that is near enough combat.
