Lakenheath F-35A Christmas Flights
zhlédnutí 856Před 6 měsíci
On Thursday I visited RAF Lakenheath, home of the 48th Fighter Wing. In preparation of the upcoming F-15E video, I hoped to film some footage of the F-15Es based here, however, they didn't fly that day. What did fly however, which was a sweet sight to see after waiting 2.5 hours in the wind and rain, were several F-35As. I have put together a small compilation video of the videos I took using m...
Thunderbolt IIs in the 1991 Gulf War
zhlédnutí 2,3KPřed rokem
The A-10A finally got to see combat for the first time since entering service in 1977 in Operation Desert Storm in 1991. There, the A-10s flew to retake Kuwait, setting up the Kuwait Theatre of Operations, for the ground invasion. When the ground war kicked off, though sometimes having accidental blue-on-blue engagements, the A-10s were ready to support every last soldier on the battlefield, ev...

Love-hate relationship, but mostly love. Good times…
Oh yeah man for “SFMC” in the Desert Storm 1991 campaign when it came to the USMC F/A-18D I made the right choice to select that of VMFA(AW)-121.
Yeah man the F/A-18s from “SFMC” in the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I chose VFA-151 for the F/A-18A and VFA-86 for the F/A-18C.
When it came to “SFMC” in selecting the F-14A under the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I chose that of VF-1 markings take a guess why.
Glad I got the F-4G for “SFMC” again for the Desert Storm 1991 campaign. And I got the skin of that from the 561st TFS, 35th TFW.
I particularly like the A-6E TRAM variant in “SFMC” when it’s with the Desert Storm 1991 campaign. And I chose VA-115 for the tail markings.
Great CAS bird for the AV-8B for “SFMC” in the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I got a liking for VMA-542’s livery.
When playing the F-111 in “SFMC” for the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I usually prefer the F-111F with Pave Tack. I got that for the 494th TFS, 48th TFW.
They got the AH-1W for “SFMC” in the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I particularly like that of HMLA-369.
We need them in "SFMC" for the 1991 Desert Storm campaign.
Glad I got the A-10 in “SFMC” for the Desert Storm 1991 campaign. I fly that of the 74th TFS, 23rd TFW.
Awesome. Vallejo 71.400UK Desert Pink is the best colour to replicate this scheme & 71.408 PRU Pink for the drop tanks. Some recourses suggest using desert ping for French aircraft as well, but I don't think that would look accurate as the French colour scheme has a pale-yellow tint.
The Jaguar & Mirage F-1 entered service in the French air force in the same year & from the get-go the Mirage was the better aircraft of the 2, which is why I believe the French did not care about upgrading the Jaguar as they would rather spend the time & money expanding the capabilities for the Mirage F-1, which is a pure French design which they could market to the world.
Lozziemouth? 😂 Where's that?
4:48 - sure it’s been pointed out before but I was groundcrew for the 1435 Flt F4’s in 1990 so your statement of them being replaced in 1988 by F3 is incorrect.
Cool
🌹🌹🌹👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🦾🦾🦾thank you for your service
One my favorite birds ~ VS-35 (97-'01)
Our trusty tornado 😊
Besides the P-38 of different types like the ELINT P-38 my father also flew the British Spit Fire in 8th Air Force 7th photo group. He was one of the highest decorated American photo recon pilots in The 8th Air Force. Thank you for making a film on the photo Recon pilots that served and what they did in WW2.
So, as I understand, the Iraqi SAMs were radar active and not heat seekheated ? So the buccs were saved by turning off their radar at threat times. Were there any semi active Iraqi SAMs in use?
I know this war was executed during winter time there due to the performance of the warbirds in hot climates., as far as I understood, the buccs navs locked on the target and could fire and forget. I am not up to date in modern day arming, but I do believe the lgbs had wired fusing problems for explosion. Tho this was the first precision guided weaponry war to be executed.
The image at 4:25 was photoshopped in 2002
I think the tornado mentioned was shot down by a Foxbat.
It was a flogger..
@@wor53lg50 I still insist it was a Foxbat, from what I remember.
Why did Brits procire jaguar? Becouse F-16 was too good and too American.
Ahhhh..... The Brits and French! Putting stores upside down on wrong side of the wing. Americans never do that. Also British, stacking engines on top of each other, instead of side by side, like well rest of the world.
I had never heard of the F-104 being used during desert storm! Thank you for the well-made video!
Some air force choose to fly it without radar, it's goes classic, just need the speed.
Money well spent 🎉
Good take away from 1st Gulf War to 2nd and to present day. Was back then only the RAF, the Canadians, and the French were actually flying combat sorties. The Italian’s lost a Tornado on the first night and pretty much called it quits. As he was the lone plane that could hit the tanker on that night as the rest in the squadron had difficulty doing nighttime AAR. But the Rest of NATO stayed home because the USAF and the RAF knew they were not really combat capable. These countries that hung out in Turkey learned a big lesson and today if you look at NATO Air Forces. While smaller they are better trained and more capable and taking part in air actions.

Note: that B52 that took a HARM in the ass was rechristened "In HARMs Way"
A10 father?
I flew one of the airfield attack missions on the first night. 4300th Provisional Bomb Wing off Diego Garcia.
You forgot to mention the 563rd TFS also stationed at George AFB.

I was GR1 for 7 years , i was a Leckie plus and conventional plus Nuc systems ! It was a very hard aircaft to work , the propulsion techs known as sooties , they worked v hard , the Flight crews were a good bunch , it took a lot of work from uz tecies to launch the Aircraft , i have great memories from this period !
👍👍👍
Great Airplane loved loading and arming the munitions as a Aviation Ordnanceman. Fondly remember my time with VMO-2 and H&MS-36 Flight Section in the early 80's. 8:31
Basiclly they turn into flying artillerys
Thanks for the memories. My Dad was with Sydney Cotton when he set up the first PRU and this brought memories of him flooding back and had me hunting out his memoirs of his time with Sydney Cotton.
If you want to fly... (seriously I'm in the UK) - Move to America - do some college. Volunteer through USAF or NAVY. - UK doesn't have enough planes. Standards are stupid high. where I had a friend, Cambridge grad in mathematics... still not good enough for RAF... ended up flying Apache's.
I'll ask around what I could do in the US, I asked a few USMC guys some time ago what they thought and it was mainly positive. Did your friend do University Air Squadrons? Thanks for the comment.
It seems like a degree of back-pressure inside the gun port is necessary as well. If the hole went through, ie wasn’t designed for airflow like the radiator, there wouldn’t be the energy needed to create the pressure oscillations inside the gun port, which is basically an open ended moonshine jug.
hey thats the yellow brick road SAM city song from flight of the intruder
What game is used at 8:07?
My father was a Grumman A-6 Intruder Pilot during the Gulf War, still one of the most beautiful planes

Okay I guess I have to suscribe. The desert storm air campaing deserves to be studied and with the B-52, there is something to be said about using a big ugly club in war.
