On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8. - Hry

Thank you guys for watching and if you have any ideas for future videos please put them in the comment section below and they might just end up in the pipeline, Big thank you Mike Romeo for making the Israeli Skin for the F-4 used in this video and also please keep in mind this is not 1 long continuous flight, these are many flights spliced together in the interest of time. Thanks again, much Love.
hey got a challange for you with the f-4. next video could you try set it up where one gets damaged. and you try to push him by his tailhook. doesn`t really show. but you can be cllose for the visual of it. look up pardo`s push
I'm becoming a new member, need to know what PC tower do you recommend ?
In these Campaign videos are the other players real or Computer driven. And thanks for the short history lesson.
Maybe bandit unknown with the Phantom or fight a 5th generation fighter
Day-23 Asking GS to DOgfight F-14 wings retracted only
I always love the mini docs u do in the beginning
Yup!
It's not only entertaining but also educational.
Man if you like the mini docs, boy do I have a channel for you. It’s called Mini Docs. I think you’ll find the guy sounds very similar to GS
There are not many video content creators that get me excited but when I see a new video from GS flying the F4 Phantom I have to confess I get a little excited.
And I appreciate you for that.
Your welcome@@GrowlingSidewinder
Love how cinematic it was flying away from the battle with the wreckage of multiple aircraft falling all around you and in the mirror.
Love the way you do these historical videos with the mini doc/combat fusion. It’s always a pleasure to see content from you! Thanks GS!
Thank you very much for the feedback and thank you for watching
I grew up near Andrews Air Force. There were F- 4's as far as the eye could see. Back at that time they also kept B-52's. Once every couple months they would have a doomsday practice. Anything with wings had to be off the ground and under 15 to 20 minutes. When they did that at night nobody got any sleep. I remember when I first moved we saw an F-4 go in. Both pilots ejected and we were close enough just see the plane hit the ground 10 seconds. What a place to grow up!!! My father being a high-profile government employee got us tickets to see the hostages come in from Iran.
Loving the F4 content. My Dad was in the ANG at Niagara Falls and got to take a ride in the pit of an F4 in the mid 80's. Flew over his civilian job office and rattled some windows...
NIAGARA FALLS!
SLOWLY I TURNED
@@deathsheadknight2137 he was a firefighter for the 107th Fighter Intercepter Group. Won airman of the year or something to get the ride in the F4
I am so happy to see you doing a phantom video. This is the coolest looking fighter, there’s just something about the way the intakes look, the nozzles under the tail, and the resemblance to the the space shuttle all make this one of my all time favorites.
These videos with context and some background history are the best, great content!
Lead sled is an absolute unit. Will never say no to more f4 content
Out of all the DCS channels I watch, yours has by far the best editing and camera work. Plenty of time inside the cockpit with just enough beautiful camera shots that help the viewer keep track of what's happening and to admire the fantastic visuals. Well done, and keep it up!
Back in the day, I used to sit outside McEntire AFB daily, during my lunch break, and watch the Phantoms doing touch and goes. I have to say that the Phantom is one of the loudest jets I have ever heard. Ear piercing loud even from a distance. Fun times...
Yo GS, nice format with the minidocs intro. That was an awesome era for military aviation, So many designs. Thanks for the content. You are killing it as usual. Have a pleasant day. Cheers.
Agreed
I think your Sinai videos are the best ones they just feel different I think it has something to do with the maps I would like to see more videos on this map, keep it up
I worked in the Navy rebuilding J79 engines for the F4 as well as working on the after burner section.
That last kill was a lot like the dogfights of Midway. One F-4 probably used up like 4 missiles on one Mig and he kept dodging them all
Beautiful cinematic action, GS! Loving all this F-4 content.
Really enjoying all the F-4 content. The F-4 (RF-4) is the first high performance military aircraft I remember seeing. They were RF-4C from Gowen Field in Boise when we would go to the airport.
It's really sad to know there are a few former GAF Phantoms with special liveries just rotting away in Manching. At least one of them (38+13) had a bunch of yellowjacket nests in its airscoops and crevisses this summer. These really should be put into a museum.
GAF? You mean Luftwaffe surely.
@@davidtaylor4975 GAFXXX is the usual transponder code Luiftwaffe aircraft use, with the XXX as a placeholder for the actual numbers in it.
Love these long vids with you battling it out with multiple aircraft. Really enjoy the short documentary at the bigging as well. I reckon i could watch this for hours. Good job and explanations as usual dude.
The real-life recce version of the F-4 was a hoot! 500 knots ground speed at 200 feet AGL over the Nevada desert, definitely a hoot!
Crazy timing with Yom Kippur in a few days
I love these mission like videos, it immerses you in the conflict and gives you a better perspective of what pilots would've experienced in combat.
Beautiful video...usually im chopper pilot...today i took the flanker 33 and just wooooooo ...now i exactly know why most of pilots in DCS are flying jets instead choppers
You were so target fixated on that MiG-21 at the end that I was afraid you were going to get a surprise before you bagged it...
Love the F-4 and I am eagerly awaiting the release of the Heatblur F-4...
Hey man, can’t wait to see you back in the Flanker!
I would like to see what modern engineering and materials could do with the F4 frame.
Thrust vectoring, aesa radar, etc.
Germany F-4E ICE had F-18 avionics and Aim-120s, that was pretty good.
Otherwise F-15s are influenced a lot by Phantoms, you kinda see the heritage.
That there was the hardest working sparrow I’ve ever seen!
Yes I have been waiting for this for at least a year. Thank you!
As close to a Colonial Viper design as there has been in real life! Beautiful aircraft.
I love the F-4 content. What a legend.
13:36 reminded me of TGM final dogfight between Mav and the unknown pilots when the flares hit the radar missile at some perfect timing. I suggest you for the 47th time a boss fight between the MiG-29 Fulcrum/Su-27 Flanker vs Su-57 Felon for a dogfight or mixed BVR scenario to test your pilot skills since you mentioned in that back in the old days, it probably means that pilot skills matter the most while the existing tech did less. Impress us GS! Keep making meaningful flight contents!
My favorite videos of yours are these operation videos! I'd really love to see one with the F-22. I know you've done a lot of videos with the F-22, but I don't think I've seen one yet where you're in a giant furball air fight in one. It'd be great to see how the Raptor performs in a heavy air-to-air fight like that!
Fun story - in 2012 I got to see a four-ship formation of the last of the operational Israeli A-4s flying while touring in Israel. They were retired very shortly after. Presumably they were from the Flying Tigers squadron. They were flying so low and so fast I saw them before I heard them!
Viper : Select Zone five, extend, save your aircraft.
Well said Growling.
Your outro music is so perfect. John Wick in the Red Circle Club at the beginning or the first movie. Growling Sidewinder : "You look like you have lost weight." Fat Amy F-35 : "Yes, 2,000 kilos." GS : "Take the night off. Australia has a Chinese infection I need to resect." Fat Amy : "Thank you Mr. Wick (F-22)
Fantastic Growling SideWinder
Amazing as ALWAYS!!!!
The IDF-AF were never big fans of the AIM-7--it was expensive, and not all that effective (at least, not until the M model). So it was not unusual for them to put an ECM pod in one Sparrow well (usually starboard forward), and sometimes a rearward facing BDA camera (port well forward), and only carrying two Sparrows in the after wells. This could free up the outboard wing pylons for additional air-to-ground ordnance, including an AGM-45 Shrike or two, or perhaps a couple of CBUs for FLAK suppression. By the latter half of the Yom Kippur War, the IDF tended to stay above 16,000 feet, and rely on a combination of Shrikes and jamming to defeat the SA-2, -3 and -6, because AAA, especially the ZUS-23-4 Shilka, was causing the majority of IDF losses.
I want to see someone make a Cessna DCS mod and have Aim-9X’s mounted on its wings and then have growing sidewinder use it in a dogfight 😂
I used to watch these F4s take off in St Louis where they were built. Loud and Smokey.
I really enjoy the earlier jet content. It really seems like you work for the kills rather then just point and click. I'm really curious how the mirage f1 would stack up to an F4...or how a MiG 19 would fare against either. I am really curious to know.
My fav is watching you fly the F-4. Doing these up close type of dog fights!! Do more please
Loved the mini-doc!
I wad stationed with the 401st Tactical Fighter Wing in Torrejon Spain during Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. We had the F-16C/D. The 614th Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 401st Tactical Fighter Wing was the first aircraft to do daylight raids on downtown Bagdad.
Love these Phantom vids, cannot wait until the HB Phantom comes and we can see how a more modern version fares
Those sparrows actually did something!
the bits of aircraft falling out the sky that can be seen in the rearview mirror at 14:06 are quite the visual
Ooh, I liked the history dose at the beginning, more of that please :)
Great Video!!!
Can't believe we were still so willing to sell them after the USS Liberty incident.
F4 phantom is like an indy car combined with a sledgehammer.
Can you show us a dogfight against the Mig23 with the F4? That’s a fight I really want to see.
There is no flyable miG23 in this sim yet
Absolutely amazing work. I still recommend F-4 vs Bandit Unknown 4 rounds.
I was lucky enough to get a chance to work on F4s in the Marines. VMFA 112 MAG 41. Loved the F4 that served in WWII as a kid both F4s are such awesome looking aircraft. VMFA. Means fighter attack.
I love mil sims, but it’s sad this conflict still lives on today. Thanks for the great video, wishing for peace.
Brother your channel is a masterpiece 💪 keep dropping us with this content
I've always wondered and I'm sure someone in the comments here can tell me. Why does the F-4 make a sound like it's an old typewriter? That really hard choppy clang sound? like around 6:33?
Stick shaker is modeled. Stall warning.
Love the history lesson to start video. 10/10
Well here comes part two with F-16/15’s 😅
The J79 smokes when not in burner. It's just the nature of the beast.
My uncle started off flying F4s in the Navy. He ended up in Navy Intelligence. Rest in Peace Capt Richard Stroud Loveland, USN.
My Grandfather was a USAF F-4 Squadron commander, always loved the F-4 Phantoms
I love the F4 phantom so much man!!!
Spectacular Phantom PH 4 Fighter Airplanes
You should do a video about how proximity fuses make Fox 1-2-3's possible. Their annular warheads, expanding rod warheads, etc. Why a close approach leads to an aircraft destroyed.
Reminds me of my days when I got Jane's IAF. Good times!
Question ref the Radar scope, all those bricks that flood it, is that clutter from the ground returns via the main lobe and sidelobes?
That's some great action!
1973 was the year my father was born!
Looking cool is half the battle.
Just in time for the 50th anniversary of the war (by the Hebrew calendar). Great video, and huge respect for the crews operating these amazing machines during the terrible war.
I am pretty sure the Phantom had an issue with their missiles (fox 2s) that after experiencing high G load it screwed up the tracker.
I think the F-4E versus the F-35 would be the perfect mixed generation guns only fight.
Awesome......
egale 106 never back down great vid
Travelling thru iran 1971/2 saw 2 phantoms taking off i was 13 then
Patience + determination = fruition. Wait....scratch that, skill!
Phantastic
Is there an F-4 sim that uses two players per jet, one pilot and a WSO? For AIM-7s lockons and IFF were done by the WSO, the pilot flew and kept the aim dot in the ASE (Allowable Steering Error) Circle, got Shoot lights, watched his Rmax/Rmin, selected Interlocks In, selected missile stations, turned on the CW transmitter which the missiles would tune to, and would fire an AIM-7 when parameters were met. A pilot could also shoot an AIM-7 using the Auto Acq function (nosewheel steering button)
Is there an IAF livery that comes with the VSN F-4? I didn't seem to come across one.
Those F4's were a real menace. 😛
GS, you really should answer the phone. Someone is trying to call you in that cockpit. (showing my age with that one)
Maybe this is a question for the Discord channel, but my VSN F4 just goes into a flat spin any/every time I pull any G's in a turn. Maybe it is just me, but it is unflyable. Anyone have any tips while I wait for Heatblur's. Got my pre-order shirt a few weeks ago... so we are a bit closer!
the start of this vid go me hoping for a new mini docs video
yesss more F-4!!! i cant wait for the Heatblur F-4E!
Indeed it was legendary!
I really hope that the Heatblur F4 Phantom has an IAF skin.
Can we get some more missions like this but with the f-86 saber
You would have had that last MiG easily, if you were flying a real IDF F-4E. Your Vulcan would have shredded him. Which is why the IDF-AF insisted on the E-model Phantom and never accepted any fighter that didn't have a gun.
So ridiculous to make a fighter with no gun.
@@GrowlingSidewinder Some lessons can apparently only be learned from experience. This was something it cost way too many lives to figure out.
What's the typewriter noise the F4 makes sometimes?
Hi, I was not sure if there is Tejas Mk1A is available on DCS. If yes please do a video!!!
Hello from Spain🇪🇦🇪🇦
How fun would a Phantom be with various modern missles
It just does what it says on the tin...
i wonder what would it look like if you jumped in thise fight with F16 or F22 :D or SuperHornet?
A beautiful aircraft for certain. But not it's smoke trails!
Me hearing the news about Pat Robertson a few months ago 15:15
More F-4 pleeeeaase.
Is the SA-4 Ganef implemented in DCS?
