This video is based in true events.
The first real action of the Mirage F1 was impressive. At the very beginning of its operational life, the Iraqi Mirage F1 entered the “hall of fame” by killing some Iranian F14 Tomcats, by using the new Super Matra 530F missiles and the “Giraffe” maneuver.
After the First Gulf War, more than twenty Iraqi Mirages escaped to Iran. The US Intelligence Services discovered that the pilots were not defecting, but the flights were part of a secret plan with the agreement of Iran government.
After the First Gulf War, the Allies enforced two NFZ in the north and south of Irak. The threat of Mirage F1 pilots escaped into Iran was taken very seriously by the USAF.
To counter the threat, the USAF Squadrons received a training program in Spain and Germany, before the rotations to the Gulf. In this video we show an example of the thousands of mockup combats in between the USAF F16 and the Spanish Air Force Mirage F1. The beginning was hard for viper pilots to counter the tactics and skills of the experienced Spanish fighter pilots. But the training was of high value for the mission.
Today, those Mirages in the video continue training USAF pilots, as aggressors under the flag of Draken Intl. This video is dedicated to the Spanish fighter pilots who operated the Mirage F1.

--DISCLAIMER--
Due to the unavailability of the missile S530F at the time of filming, the Giraffe mision was flown using the 530F, instead of S530F.
The story doesn´t change, and for those willing to test this missions in DCS, the good news is that now the Super Matra S530F is available on the release.
We apologise for the misunderstandings if it happen to appear. Thanks."

HOLY SHIT, I've come back to this after a while, and holy shit, how the fuck does this not have at least a million views? The quality of this is utterly astounding to the point that I could legit see it being a tv show!
Wow, nobody had any chill training in Spain. They really went beyond with the realism.
Weakest Spanish pilot vs. smartest Viper pilot
We need our own version of The Oscars for the DCS producers. This is fantastic!
We should call them The Glowing Amraams :)
arabs in their many wars have showed some interesting creativity in air combat , on almost equal terms they do shine like in the Kippur war where they almost eradicated like third of the israeli airforce in 2 days . many israeli pilots called them mad pilots for trying to do crazy maneuvers especially when they are in difficulty or have the element of surprise . the issue is that until recently most arab nations where always using weak weaponry often 10 to 20 years old that just didnt help them much , they can try good tactics and skilled maneuvering that can make any western ace clap for them but the weapons just didnt help .
on ground too , a syrian tank guy veteran complained in a documentary how their tank assault on golan height was perfect and organised but their tanks were just too inferior in range , they were sniped at 3 kilometers while they can only fire at 2 or less . an israeli veteran who also was one of those sniping the tanks confirmed this story by saying that the syrian tanks couldnt fire back from such range even though the syrian assault was on paper unstoppable.
the soviets counted on a 5 or more to 1 advantage with such weapons in the cold war to hide such weakness , they didnt make those weapons for a 1v1 or 3v1 but for a 5 to a 10 v1 like in ww2 . so for the arabs to use their weapons in a 2v1 or 3v1 almost made them deal only 30% damage and recieve 70 except in few occasions like egypt in kippur where it was like 45% to 55% .
between iraq and iran things were more equal so both sides kinda broke some records and even made the west learn few tricks to apply like how azerbeijan did recently with its drones
Fantastic work! DCS cinematics are really pushing the boundaries of high quality lately!
Okay, this was the greatest DCS cinematic video I've first seen in 2023. Keep up the great work guys :)
I lived in rural Spain for half a decade, off grid, halfway up a mountain not that far from Albacete. One day I watched a four ship of Spanish Hornets running a mock attack on an abandoned finca ( farmhouse ) on our mountain. The weather was what I would call marginal and the mountain peak was obscured by cloud. It was the best air show I've ever seen, the Spanish pilots were highly aggressive with their flying. I don't know if the Hornets were from Albacete ( note to the narrator - it's pronounced Alba-thetty ) though. The airbase is called Los Llanos by the way.
Ejercito del aire F18 are based in Zaragoza. Another detachment (F18 ex Usnavy) in Gando airport Canary islands.
A former F1C-200 ground crew✌️🙋
The fact that your team was able to visualize these legendary pictures 2:55 already deserves respect. This transition, musical accompaniment, and voiceover give a simply amazing wow effect!
2:58 did you recreate that famous image of the us planes flying over the burning oil rigs from desert storm ???? wow it looks identical the edit gave me goosebumps never knew they did this technique
2:57 This feels like when in an historical drama a famous picture is recreated, excellent work man.
Awesome as always!
A war movie without nuisance of the actors... you will not find material this awesome even in high budget Hollywood movie, wonderful work people 👏😀👍
absolutely baller of a video, the fact that you made this into a documentary style is so very cool. incredible work.
Magnificent video! It's a hymn to the Mirage F1 ! One of the most beautiful aircraft in the world.
didn't know Spain and the US had live-fire exercises between F1s and F16s, very cool!
Im a massive fan of DCS cinematics, well done!

I use the Giraffe maneuver all the time.
Really pushing the boundaries here, one of the best DCS cinematics/movies I've seen. You are right up there on the podium with Adrián Caparzo. Like that both of you have gotten into making cinematics with intersting stories. Looking forward to what gems you'll create in the future. Awesome work mate
Amazing video Quality
Insane!!!
Since I was a kid I considered the Mirage F1 to be one of the best-looking planes in the sky.
and the good thing is that it is rather pointy ;)
One of the best DCS movies so far. Awesome work!
Superb video, keep up doing them please!
Regards.
World class. Thank you Sir. Many thanks and kind regards Nick
Thanks to you Nick and all of your team for creating such an amazing simulator that inspires us to create such content.
I am hyped
But i was a bit convinced cause in germany it is 15.40 right now
Outstanding production. Bravo! If you want some more interesting F-1 stories have a look at the South African pilots over Angola and the French over Chad.
GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!!!
Great story, incredible production value. I love it!

@@hphp31416 iraqi part of Persian Gulf is not modeled so no point for your sarcasm tbh
Persian gulf
Attack on H-3 Airfield
Nice job! 👌
Wow.. I forgot I wasn’t watching history channel for a minute there. Well done!!
Man I miss Alpenwolf's cold war server, can't do stuff like this on Enigma's
very epic
Never saw a video made so good as this! Please keep going!
One of these days, my wife may find me dead in my chair, from cardiac arrest, and a DCS video on the screen. I feel like I've had a workout.
I'm absolutely loving the history + DCS flare here. Liked and subscribed!
very nice!! DG360 army strikes again!!
Bloody hell that was amazing! Incredible work!
Superb. Love these historical reenactment using DCS World.

Well done !!
OMG!
I am speechless!
WOW!
Thank you for this amazing video!
WOW!
those explosion wow how they should really be in DCS 😅
This was an absolute high octane masterpiece!🔥 The tight camera work gives a real sense of the sheer velocity when seeing the Giraffe maneuver in action!
Woho Rock N Roll baby :)
Damn mate well done. That 8 minutes went way to quickly!
Man, now all we need are Jaguar and Tornado mods for DCS so the first persian gulf war could be virtually played out for us oldtimers. :D
And an Iraq-Kuwait map. Blows my mind we don't have that yet.
Iran really looked at Desert Storm and went "time to steal me some F-1s"
The sped up sequences were just a bit jarring. Otherwise, what a great effort!
Awesome vidéo !!! Good job !
OUTSTANDING! Great job showing the history AND doing it in an entertaining fashion.
😲😲👏👏👍👍
came from the dcs steam news page, and i must say this is epic asf!
Video high end class!!!
This Matra 530 was known to be unreliable ! They did the job with the Super 530F !
The French used to call the former "L' à quoi bon ?"
Tough to lose pilots and equipment just for training-unless there's no substitute in DCS...Makes for a dramatic video though. Nice.
DG sends me ! :P
IMPRESIONANTE !!!!!!!!! un gran video
WOW!!! What an incredible video! Well done!
