Ini termasuk total 45.707 senapan tunggal barel, 611 kendaraan lapis baja dan sedikit karaben serta pistol. Dalam tulisannya pada tahun 1975, ia mengungkapkan bahwa "kami secara sembunyi-sembunyi telah memberikan 'bantuan' ke [[Vietnam]] sejak awal tahun 1958. Sumber arsip Amerika yang sudah diterbitkan telah mengungkapkan bahwa kontribusi Malaysia yang sebenarnya untuk perang di Vietnam termasuk sebagai berikut:" lebih dari 5.000 petugas Vietnam dilatih di Malaysia; pelatihan dari 150 tentara AS untuk menangani Anjing Pelacak; daftar yang cukup mengesankan tentang peralatan militer dan senjata yang diberikan kepada Viet-Nam setelah akhir pemberontakan Malaysia (misalnya, 641 pengangkut personel lapis baja, 56.000 senapan); dan sejumlah bantuan sipil (alat transportasi, vaksin kolera, dan bantuan korban banjir)". Tidak bisa dipungkiri bahwa kebijakan Pemerintah mendukung rezim Vietnam Selatan dengan senjata, peralatan dan pelatihan dianggap oleh beberapa kalangan, terutama Partai-partai oposisi, sebagai bentuk campur tangan dalam urusan internal negara itu dan upaya berani Tunku untuk mempertahankannya tidak cukup meyakinkan, dari sudut pandang kebijakan murni asing.|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20151016191310/http://www.idfr.gov.my/images/stories/publication/2008/tunku.pdf|archivedate=16 Oktober 2015|deadurl=no}}</ref>

'''Perang Vietnam''', juga disebut '''Perang Indocina Kedua''', adalah sebuah [[perang]] yang terjadi antara [[1957]] dan [[1975]] di [[Vietnam]]. Perang ini merupakan bagian dari [[Perang Dingin]] antara dua kubu ideologi besar, yakni [[Komunis]] dan [[SEATO]].

Dua kubu yang saling berperang adalah Republik Vietnam (Vietnam Selatan) dan Republik Demokratik Vietnam (Vietnam Utara). [[Amerika Serikat]], [[Korea Selatan]], [[Thailand]], [[Australia]], [[Selandia Baru]] dan [[Filipina]] (juga bantuan militer oleh [[Taiwan]] dan [[Spanyol]]) bersekutu dengan Vietnam Selatan, sedangkan [[USSR|Uni Soviet]], [[RRT|Tiongkok]], [[Korea Utara]], [[Republik Rakyat Mongolia|Mongolia]] dan [[Kuba]] mendukung Vietnam Utara yang berideologi [[komunisme|komunis]].

Jumlah korban yang meninggal diperkirakan lebih dari 280.000 jiwa di pihak [[Vietnam Selatan]] dan lebih dari 1.000.000 jiwa di pihak [[Vietnam Utara]].

Perang ini mengakibatkan eksodus besar-besaran warga Vietnam ke negara lain, terutamanya [[Amerika Serikat]], [[Australia]] dan negara-negara Barat lainnya, sehingga di negara-negara tersebut bisa ditemukan komunitas Vietnam yang cukup besar.

Setelah berakhirnya perang ini, kedua Vietnam tersebut pun bersatu pada tahun [[1976]] dan Vietnam menjadi negara komunis.

Salah satu korban paling terkenal dari Perang Vietnam ini adalah [[Kim Phuc]].

== Nama-nama perang ==
{{Further information|Terminologi Perang Vietnam}}
Berbagai nama telah digunakan untuk konflik ini. ''Perang Vietnam'' adalah yang paling sering digunakan, terutama dalam bahasa Inggris. Perang ini juga dikenal sebagai ''Perang Indochina Kedua'' dan ''Konflik Vietnam''.

Karena di Indochina sudah pernah terjadi beberapa konflik, konflik tertentu ini disebut dengan nama protagonis utama untuk membedakannya dari nama lain.<ref>Moore, Harold. G and Joseph L. Galloway ''We Are Soldiers Still: A Journey Back to the Battlefields of Vietnam'' (p. 57).</ref> Dalam [[bahasa Vietnam]], perang ini umumnya dikenal sebagai ''Kháng chiến chống Mỹ'' (Perang Perlawanan Terhadap Amerika). Perang ini juga dikenal dengan nama ''Chiến tranh Việt Nam'' (Perang Vietnam).<ref>{{cite web|title=Asian-Nation: Asian American History, Demographics, & Issues:: The American / Viet Nam War|quote=The Viet Nam War is also called 'The American War' by the Vietnamese |url=http://www.asian-nation.org/vietnam-war.shtml |accessdate=18 August 2008}}</ref>

Organisasi militer utama yang terlibat dalam perang, di satu sisi, [[Tentara Republik Vietnam]] (ARVN) dan [[Angkatan Bersenjata Amerika Serikat|militer AS]], dan di sisi lain, [[Tentara Rakyat Vietnam]] (PAVN) (lebih umum dikenal dengan Tentara Vietnam Utara, atau NVA, dalam sumber-sumber berbahasa Inggris), dan Front Nasional untuk Pembebasan Vietnam Selatan (NLF, lebih dikenal sebagai [[Viet Cong]] dalam sumber bahasa Inggris), pasukan gerilya komunis Vietnam Selatan.<ref>Tucker, Spencer C. (2011) ''The Encyclopedia of the Vietnam War: A Political, Social, and Military History'' ABC-CLIO. ISBN 1-85109-961-1, hlm. xli</ref>

== Latar belakang ==
[[Vietnam]] dijajah oleh [[Tiongkok]] sejak tahun [[110 SM]] sampai mencapai kemerdekaan pada tahun [[938]]. Setelah bebas dari belenggu penjajahan [[Tiongkok]], [[Vietnam]] selalu menentang dan mengecam serangan pihak asing.

Pada abad ke-19, [[Vietnam]] menjadi [[Wilayah koloni Prancis|wilayah jajahan Prancis]]. Prancis menguasai [[Vietnam]] setelah melakukan beberapa perang kolonial di [[Indochina]] mulai dari tahun 1840-an. Ekspansi kekuasaan [[Prancis]] disebabkan keinginan untuk menyaingi kebangkitan [[Britania Raya]] dan kebutuhan untuk mendapatkan hasil bumi seperti rempah-rempah untuk menggerakkan industri di [[Prancis]] untuk menyaingi penguasaan industri [[Britania Raya]].

Semasa pemerintahan [[Prancis]], golongan rakyat [[Vietnam]] dibakar semangat [[nasionalisme]] dan ingin [[kemerdekaan|merdeka]] dari [[Prancis]]. Beberapa pemberontakan dilakukan oleh banyak kelompok-kelompok [[nasionalisme|nasionalis]], tetapi usaha mereka gagal. Pada tahun [[1919]], semasa [[Perjanjian Versailles]] dirundingkan, [[Ho Chi Minh]] meminta untuk bersama-sama membuat perundingan agar [[Vietnam]] dapat merdeka. Permintaan tersebut ditolak dan [[Vietnam]] beserta seluruh [[Indochina]] terus menjadi jajahan Prancis.

Kelompok [[Viet Minh]] akhirnya mendapat dukungan populer dan berhasil mengusir [[Prancis]] dari [[Vietnam]]. Selama [[Perang Dunia II]], [[Vietnam]] dikuasai oleh [[Jepang]]. Pemerintah [[Prancis Vichy]] bekerjasama dengan [[Jepang]] yang mengantar tentara ke [[Indochina]] sebagai pasukan yang berkuasa secara ''de facto'' di kawasan tersebut. Pemerintah [[Prancis Vichy]] tetap menjalankan pemerintahan seperti biasa sampai tahun [[1944]] ketika [[Prancis Vichy]] jatuh setelah tentara sekutu menaklukan [[Prancis]] dan jendral [[Charles de Gaulle]] diangkat sebagai pemimpin [[Prancis]].

Setelah pemerintah [[Prancis Vichy]] tumbang, pemerintah [[Jepang]] menggalakkan kebangkitan pergerakan nasionalis di kalangan rakyat (Vietnam). Pada akhir (Perang Dunia II), (Vietnam) diberikan kemerdekaan oleh pihak (Jepang). (Ho Chí Minh) kembali ke Vietnam untuk membebaskan negaranya agar tidak dijajah oleh kekuasaan asing. Ia menerima bantuan kelompok [[Office of Strategic Services|OSS]] yang akan berubah menjadi [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]] nantinya.

Pada akhir (Perang Dunia II), pergerakan (Viet Minh) di bawah pimpinan (Ho Chí Minh) berhasil membebaskan Vietnam dari tangan penjajah, tetapi keberhasilan itu hanya untuk masa yang singkat saja. Pihak Jepang menangkap pemerintah Prancis dan memberikan Vietnam suatu bentuk “kemerdekaan” sebagai sebagian dari rancangan Jepang untuk "membebaskan" bumi Asia dari penjajahan barat. Banyak bangunan diserahkan kepada kelompok-kelompok nasionalis.
   
Perang Vietnam merupakan perang terlama Amerika Serikat di Asia Tenggara.

Sebagai hasil dari keputusan [[Partai Buruh Korea]] pada bulan Oktober 1966, di awal tahun 1967 [[Korea Utara]] mengirim satu skuadron tempur ke Vietnam Utara untuk mendukung skuadron tempur Vietnam Utara ke-921 dan ke-923 yang melindungi Hanoi. Mereka masih berperang hingga tahun 1968, dan 200 pilot dilaporkan telah bertugas.<ref>Asia Times, 18 August 2006, Richard M Bennett [http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Korea/HH18Dg02.html Missiles and madness] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060923224111/http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Korea/HH18Dg02.html |date=2006-09-23 }}.</ref>

Sekitar 10.450 tentara [[Filipina]] dikirim ke Vietnam Selatan. Mereka pada umumnya terlibat dalam proyek-proyek pengamanan sipil medis dan lainnya. Pasukan ini dioperasikan di bawah penunjukan PHLCAG-V atau Kelompok Aksi Sipil Filipina-Vietnam.

Hasilnya, sebanyak 30.000 unit kemudian diproduksi. Namun keterbatasan unit, termasuk kualitas suara yang buruk, jangkauan yang kurang, penundaan waktu yang mengganggu dan masalah dukungan logistik menyebabkan hanya satu dari sepuluh unit yang dapat digunakan.<ref name=boaklectures>[http://www.governmentattic.org/18docs/Hist_US_COMSEC_Boak_NSA_1973u.pdf A History of U.S. Communications Security; the David G.
