What was the last major offensive of the Vietnam War?

The last major offensive of the Vietnam War was indeed the Easter Offensive, which began on March 30, 1972. This large-scale military campaign was launched by North Vietnam against the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) and involved a coordinated effort across multiple fronts, including in the central highlands and near the eastern border of South Vietnam. The offensive aimed to regain control of territory lost during previous conflicts and to create a negotiating position favorable to North Vietnam as peace talks continued.

The Easter Offensive marked a significant increase in military activity and was notable for its scale and the use of heavy artillery and armor. While it resulted in some territorial gains for North Vietnam, it ultimately led to heavy losses on both sides and was met with a strong counteroffensive by South Vietnamese forces, supported by U.S. airpower.

In contrast, the Tet Offensive, while a pivotal moment in the Vietnam War, took place much earlier, starting in January 1968, and was a surprise attack that marked a turning point in public opinion regarding the war. The Hamburger Hill Offensive, also known as the Battle of Hamburger Hill, occurred in May 1969 and involved a prolonged struggle for a specific location rather than a coordinated offensive across multiple regions.
