Application Description

In 1972, Hanoi witnessed a pivotal moment in history during the "Dien Bien Phu victory in the air," known as Operation Linebacker II. This significant event is captured in the game "Hanoi 12 Days and Nights," developed by Pirex Games. The game delves into the theme of Revolution, meticulously recreating the intense aerial conflict between the resilient Hanoi populace and the formidable B-52 aircraft deployed by the US imperialists. This conflict, which unfolded at the end of December 1972, ultimately led the US Government to sign the Paris Agreement, ushering in peace to North Vietnam.

From the perspective of the United States, Operation Linebacker II, also referred to as the "Dien Bien Phu in the air" campaign, marked the final military endeavor against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam in the Vietnam War. Spanning from December 18 to December 30, 1972, this operation was initiated following the breakdown of the Paris Conference, which had collapsed due to irreconcilable differences between the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the US over the terms of the proposed agreement.
