= Solution

A <vector superfield> is a real <superfield>,
$$
V=V^\dagger.
$$
For a non-Abelian gauge theory it is also Lie-algebra valued, $V=V^aT_a$. The reality condition permits the component expansion to be reduced to <Wess-Zumino gauge>, where the physical fields are a gauge field and gaugino together with a real auxiliary field.
