I don't own the copyrghts, copyright belong to Warner Bros. & Malpaso. This is a fan made edit.I 've done some rework to it. I'm a fan of this movie, especially the fight scenes. All of the original soundtrack is gone. I hope you enjoy it. - Hudba

When I first watched that back when I was a kid that was the coolest movie ever
Wanted to see it so badly but couldn't afford it and read the book instead.
@@sdrc92126 agree
I still do.
Exactly
@@theunleashing3872 Not to many bad Eastwood movies out there unless you’re good and ugly
To this day if someone has trouble loading a website with the Firefox browser, I'll always ask 'Have you tried thinking in Russian?'
😅🤣😂 classic!!
@@justinavery8664 I always use Firefox and with no problem, I guess I can think in Russian.
Excellent! What a movie! And what a line!!
Yeah 😁😁
"Don't think in English and transpose"
No matter how you edit it, Eastwood walking into the hangar in his flight suit is gold. So impressive.
Let's be honest here , that plane looks bad ass even today
Inspired by SR71 i guess
I’m sure there was some inspiration from that. But look at the Mig 31, what do you think?
It's too chunky to my eye, but the vague idea of what the lines of the craft should be are good looking. It's showed up in some form in the game Ace Combat, in at least the 7th and most recent game.
@@klausstohr4733 Try blending the A71[the sr's missile armed sister] with the XB-70 Valkyrie. This firefox is pretty close to what you get.
John Dykstra of the original "Star Wars" helmed the visual effects. He and his team did a great job!
Dad took me to see this in 82. Good times!
My Dad had it on VHS in his archive lol
As a kid I watched this movie on the air base with my best friend, I was enthralled. Got home and was telling my dad about it, we go hang out with some of his buddies who were fighter pilots who giggled and said it was entertaining.
They giggled? Hard to believe that. Today's US woke military, sure I'd believe they giggle but not 40 years ago.
They giggle cause thats not how planes work
What flying in a straight line@@waltzaremba9737
I totally forgot about this movie! I need to go back and watch it.
Such an underrated film
In all this excitement I don’t remember if I fired 3 missiles or 4 missiles....
😅😅😅 You feel lucky, punk?
@@hagdore well do ya?!?!?!
@@christurner2853 Ay.....I gots to know.

"Get off my lawn!"
Was thinking about you dad , this movie clip appeared on my phone ....thanks for everything
Love you frank
Remember watching this as a kid. It felt like a proper adult type film. Loved it and still love it. Awesome plane.
One of the coolest scenes and movie ever.
Working for the Soviets, working for Darth Vader.... that guy @1:09 doesn't have much luck :)
LOL !!! Indeed !!!
Cheap antisoviet film. Americans, dollar must be red of blood Syria, Iraq, Libya children.
I guess he'll get Force choked by Comrade Stalin now...
Admiral Piett...
He gives the same look when he lets the firefox and the millennium falcon escape
In reality the Russians built some incredible planes during the Cold War. The Firefox deign still looks cool today.
the theoretical concepts coming out of the USSR during the 1960-70s were incredible. unfortunately, because of the way things were done, most of them didn't work. a lot of the things the USA built were based on Soviet designs. the Soviet leadership seemed to be obsessed with size, and never seemed to care whether or not it could do the job it was made for!
@@leeeastwood6368 They were obsessed with size because they had little peckers.
@@leeeastwood6368 The F86 flew before the Mig 15 and the F15 flew years before the MiG 29 so I don't know what you are referring to
@@jakelakota3010 He’s just making shit up, like 99% of CZcamsrs do. The only thing we know for sure that the US took from the USSR is mathematical basis of the F117’s stealth tech. Ben Rich explains in his book “Skunk Works” how the Skunkworks engineer who invented stealth tech found an article in an aerospace engineering journal by a Russian engineer on how fighter nose cones could be shaped to better enable the radar housed inside to pass through them more accurately with less distortion. He realized that info could also be used to deflect or degrade radar bouncing off a specially shaped aircraft, and went on to design and build the F-117 with it.
@@5133937 Whomever the producers consulted for the design of the movie Mig 31 (in the novel it was real life Mig 31) must have had some involvement with the real Skunkwork because the movie plane has some realistic stealth concepts like the faceted nose and internal missle bays.
The audio mix was outstanding. And I heard it on quality phones.
First saw this movie in '87 at the age of 6, i was in awe it was soooo cool to me😎😎😎 bought it on dvd in 2003.
i love the look on the colonel's face as the aircraft was being stolen just as the first secretary pulls up in his limo.. colonel was most likely either executed or sent to the gulags for incompetence..
Hahahaha! Go to gulag.
He was sent to gulag, but he won and was sent back to the fight.
@@floatingchimney not forced choked by Vader ?
he actuallly was promototed to captain off a star destroyer.
Hardly ever comment, but you did an awesome job!! My fav part though was his spinout scene great stuff!!!
, yea then he hit the Brakes an then blasted the bad guy with a missile....
Espectacular escena para aquella época... Thank you Clint....
This film and blue thunder, brilliant. 👍
Blue Thunder is a classic.
Blue Thunder. Roy Scheider was perfect for that role.
I love this movie and as a teenager remember play the game in the arcades at the time.
The arcade game was a killer. In the 80s it was somehting else. I played it and loved it too.
@@telzer Yeah it was a video disk game right? With the HUD overlayed onto real flight footage. Really cool for its time.
Are used to make this airplane out of clay when I was a kid. This is definitely my favorite plane, second to none! The next favorite of course would be the SR 71. Which makes the SR 71 my favorite because this plane isn’t real!
Yeah,SR71 BLACKBIRD the fastest plane ever built😀
Great song choice. Reminds me of Blade Runner. I did something like this a while ago. I used the song "Summer Song" by Joe Satriani. Of course, I just muted the film and put the song over it since I don't have the skills to rebuild all the other sounds lol.
Thanks. I just tried something with my keyboard. My aim was to get that John Carpenter sound, especially in the beginning. The soundtrack is a mixture of stock and self made sounds. All music is mine. It was fun to make. I have new clips of Firefox coming later.
You have failed me for the last time. Comrade Piett
What a fantastic aircraft design.
I would love it if someone took all the CGI footage and brought it up to date, much like they did when they release Star Trek on DVD. The movie is so good it just needs better and realistic CGI to make it an absolute classic.
In those days there was no CGI. It was Blue-screen background tech. I understand what you mean tho. The effects in the film are a good template for updating.
@@paulglover6525 The model shots were good but the compositing wasn't great. The afterburners also looked weird, like a propane flame, compared to the strong orange or even blue flame cone from a Tu-22M.
Best bet? Have someone make a DCS or MSFS 2020 mod of this aircraft with the same external quality as the Heatblur F-14 add on, and then use whatever modern VFX software available. Most of the rendering difficulty (lighting, speculiar, etc) would have been done by the game/sim graphics engine...
Hollywood remake
Dude, that movie was amazing!
"So how was your day honey,?" "Oh, you know, stole a Soviet aircraft worth billions of Rubles, dodged their best pilot, landed on an ice shelf, landed successfully " . ......" How was your day?"
The movie is based on the book of the same name by Craig Thomas, which I recommend reading. Mitchel Gant's story continues in the sequels _Firefox Down_ , _Winter Hawk_ , and _A Different War_ .
Firefox Down is a really good story, in some ways even better.
I read the book Firefox down. He doesn't make it back with the plane. It goes down and sinks to the bottom of a lake.
@@dwaynemorash I won't give the rest away, but the story doesn't quite end there.
@@dotdashdotdash I read the book also. It's interesting as Thomas started the book saying in the original book the Firefox was destroyed, but the book assumes it follows the movie.
Brilliant film one of Clint's best .👊
Firefox was one of the best movies in the 1981-1982 summer season for Warners along with Night Shift, The World According to Garp,
Victor/Victoria, The Road Warrior and Poltergeist.
After so many years the movie is still pitch perfect.
well done.
Awesome movie **and** book!
Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Its been ten years since i read this story in a book i love it.
I saw this as a kid zillions of times
One of eastwood best movies I love this film
Even in 2021 this movie rocks! "Eat this"
Excelente......aún la recuerdo cómo una película icónica de Eastwood
The movie where you're waiting two hours for him to get into the plane!
Nic edit👍
well done
I watched it way back ago when I was a kid and feel like watching it again...
It's still a solid and enjoyable film, even if we now know that the premise that the Soviets could field advanced avionics like this in the early 1980's is patently ludicrous. (Awesome looking place, though.)
Yes it was a very cool movie
Umderrated film! Amazing!
Good video. Good actor too.
A great movie, back then, and now
"If the Firefox went into afterburner, it could be on the other side of the planet by now"
"Calculate all possible destinations along the last known trajectory."
"Yes, my Lord, we'll find it."
"Don't fail me again....Admiral...."
This movie was awesome. I never knew that there was a second part to the story. I read the novel of the second part about a decade ago.
l still have the book
The title of the sequel novel is "Firefox Down ".
@@lynwilliamson886 By Craig Thomas, if I recall correctly. But Firefox spends most if the novel at the bottom of a lake. They should make a movie out of it, maybe starring Eastwood's son, Scott. But overhaul the story so there's more Firefox action.
@@mroctober3657 I was thinking a remake (modern adaptation) would change from the USSR, to the People's Republic of China.
@@lynwilliamson886 Probably wouldn't happen as any movie critical of China means no distribution in that region.
Maybe after the success of Top Gun Maverick we'll see a resurgence of interest in a Firefox sequel or remake.
Clint landing the role as the pilot was a Genius move !
And to think all this hysteria paved the way for the greatest fighter ever - the F-15 Eagle!
Yes, very good. But you have to understand that, at that time, there was concern that the Soviets were building aircraft that were vastly technologically superior to American aircraft. Principally, the MiG-25. That hysteria was the inspiration for the story of this movie. But it turned out to be just the opposite.
Yes indeed I get that. What I am saying is this story was inspired from 1960s-era paranoia about Soviet aircraft technology that never materialized.
The colors are soo crisp in this video, the sound so clear ... Are you making a remasterization of the whole film.
It is a flawless, imppecable job.
Thanks for the comment. I haven't touched the colors at all. Only the sound has been reworked. The whole film is too much work with all the dialogue etc. There will be third flying clip coming soon...stay tuned.
@@telzer Great job!
Very underrated movie.
Admiral Piett is gonna get in troubleeeee.....
Yep! He surely would when Marshal Vader and Politburo Chairman Palpatine finds out!
In the follow up novel, he got sentanced to life in the lubyanka!
Wow so fantastic system
That's a remake I'd watch!
I remember watched this movie when I was 14 years old. Probably this was the first movie for me dealing with an international conspiracy and contained suspenseful espionage that took the stage during the cold war period. The design of Mig 31 Firefox so incredibly came to real and solid that grasped my heart. The design itself might cause resistance and distracts aerodynamically when it accelerates to the top speed of Mach 6 however, the sense of wonder really won over the reality. Moreover, the how it took shape of this bird didn't look like any conventional Soviet-made fighter jets, nor the American made as well. I could say it looks more like European-made jets such as the external features are mainly consisted of large delta wings with canards in forward. I also noticed there was no HUD in the cockpit though, all flight data and symbolization could be shown directly on the canopy. The helmet might be equipped with the Helmet Mounted Display System which incorporates a thought-controlled device and other high-tech gadgets. These features are not depicted in the movie though, we aviation enthusiasts and fighter jets fanatics spread our minds to speculate how things may work to be functional and more effective whether the filmmakers thought about it or not. When it comes to the design of the plane, the Mig 31 Firefox has various ways of appearance such as being heroic and demonic (2:11) especially the counterpart of the Mig 31 emerged on the screen, on chase Mitchell Gunt to hunt down. I should say the filmmakers did a great work to let portray a single fictional fighter jet to have two different characteristics. I was still drawn to the last scene of the film, the Firefox flew into the Sunset. It is a great movie.
This Here
LADIES & Gentlemen....
Takes US Back
To 1982;
And i STILL!!!....
CONSIDER THIS
WARPLANE....
"DREAM-BIRD STATUS"!!!.
♠️ALPHA FORTY-EIGHT♠️
Ever the best air combat moovie
Damn Fucking Classic my friends. Thanks.
When this movie came out, I was in the USAF and assigned to the F-117 stealth fighter project. Apparently the Firefox looked enough like the F-117 Nighthawk that our intelligence people were working overtime to make sure nothing got out about our aircraft. Personally, I didn't think they looked much alike at all.
Just rewatched the movie about a month ago. Still great
They do and they don't.
The overall aircraft looks nothing like an F-117, but if you look at the sharp angles and ultra-smooth surface, it's similar. Completely unique at the time, as well as being two of the exact features that give the plane its stealth properties. I believe you when you say there was a little concern
Its Sunday March 14th 2021 And #Firefox Starring #ClintEastwood came out in 1982 And I can recall seeing it in a Movie theater as a Kid
They had movies back then?
@@moistmike4150 So the legend says.
This was an amazing film, I wish Clint had made the follow up as well.
The author of Firefox wrote a 2nd novel: Fire Fox Down 📙. It was popular but not a film.
I think a modern remake would be awesome, with a follow-up by the sequel Firefox Down.
so happy, seeing this, to have missed this cinema offering and instead spent my money on- anything else whatsoever
Much better!
G-Force has left the chat!
Physics has left the chat!
Awesome movie...really 2 movies..spy and jet fighter
Complete with all those cheesy 80's VFX. :)
No the kid I always loved this movie. Love watching it with my grandfather as well.
Make my day scene. Aerial combat version.
What a machine
Wheres the whole movie remake!! Lol this is great shit!!
I like your pacing in the fight scene.
Assisti em 1976 durante o serviço militar no cine josssandra em Pirassununga, filmaço!
Why would you take away the different turbine starting sounds? I always loved the engine build up coming to life. Reminded me of Star Wars Millennium Falcon. Would love to hear an enhanced version of the original sounds with perhaps some additional beeps and clicks of the computers etc. Perhaps even a different futuristic engine sound mixed with the jet engine sound
I remember When U saw FireFox"in 1982 back in L.A. at Westwood village theater where I seen lots of movies as t that same theater which is still own to the public to this day.🌐🌏🚓✈🔥🎶🎵📻📞🎬📽📡🔦🔫🚬🧤🧢🇨🇳🇺🇸
I miss the Cold War. We knew who our enemies were. Today, our enemies are people behind the scenes pulling the strings. Nothing is what it seems to be.
Boom. We can all feel the strings being pulled, but we cant see who is pulling them.
...Oh yes!!! I was 11 or 12 first time i watched it during the 80s on public tv...cold war influenced everything those days..
When I watched this movie when it first came out it was awesome and if I was to watch it again today I would look at it as corny movie. It would be cool if they film the movie again with today's CGI.
Speaking of movies back then what movies would you like to see filmed with today's CGI. I would like to see close encounter of the 3rd kind.
Watched close encounters not that long ago and most of the effects still look pretty good even today
THE LAST STARFIGHTER!!! or ENEMY MINE!!! 👍😉
@@miguelangelhuertabello3729 both excellent choices. Would love to see last star fighter done as a big budget Tv series actually… 👍
@@planetdisco4821 I think there is a possible sequel to The Last Starfighter, coming out soon.

There was an arcade game of this movie as well. Back in the day before consoles and pcs.
Really? Sounds awesome I've never heard of it. Afterburner was an awesome video game at the arcades. Especially the sit-down one. Afterburner and Street Fighter II.
Could use some J.J. Abrams lighting effects. There were sun dogs but no lens flares. We need more lens flares! And cowbell. Definitely more cowbell!
Can we remake the special effects in this? Such a cool movie...
It was and still as the novel was great as well
Okaaaaaaay.
Damn that arcade game was hard!
Great visuals for it's time but definitely a tough game!
Cool music but devastated not to hear the Firefox startup sounds ☹️
,, he had no time , he had to hit the Turbo Boost Button to get outta there
Actually I prefer the original score...
Maravilhoso!!
O filme tem uma boa história e os efeitos eram o que tinha na época , nos tempos com a crise da guerra da Ucrânia esse filme 🎥 merece uma refilmagem atual e digna diga se de passagem man .
Hi @telzer. Great work! Do tou think you could share the video and sound FX without th emusic mixrd in? I'd like to add my own music to your brilliant FX.
3:08 I remember this scream from Flap Jack
The MIG -13 Stealth Aircraft Firefox Powerful speed.
The Russian chasing Gant in the airs is German Actor Kai Wulf,he played pilots cars or planes in Series in the 80s.
I like this movie . I'm a Clint Eastwood Fan. RAWHIDE.
00:02 - Cant they see that is Clint Eastwood walking there?? LOL. Just seeing the guy walk gives away his identity. Dirty Harry walks into jet hangar: Scene 43 and... ACTION !!!
Harry’s gait is unmistakable lol
"Well do you feel lucky?" Blows up second Firefox.
"Как ты думаешь, тебе повезло?" just doesn't cut it, right?
That is one of the movies they shouldn't remake it a classic top move happy days 🤠
I Would Like to See This in CGI.
Must remake this movie.
Movie is bad ass.
Let's hope Hollywood doesn't screw it up with a remake.
