No, but they are capable of making Soviet long-range jet bombers MUCH more a threat for USN ships, by providing them fighter cover.




...A-4 with Sidewinders is literally useless against supersonic anti-ship missile. The most common Soviet long-range missiles of early 1960s - K-10S ("Kipper") was capable of Mach 1.5+ speed. The probability of its being successfully intercepted by subsonic attack aircraft are near zero.
