My father flew many successful missions in the A-4-D off the USS Ticonderoga during the Vietnam War. He loved it.

[@LoudestHoward]

Gentlemen, this is your first hop. The jets you are flying against are smaller, faster, and more maneuverable; just like the enemy MiGs.

[@CallumSpotting]

Absolutely amazing video

Love the A4s and their design for speed and durability and very well maneuvering ability for their ability as their pilots can easily do a roll in seconds

Just spotted this over the sea heading away from UK

[@MUCSpotter]

It is a very nice fighter I think !! Thanks for your support !!

[@jernejfunkl8300]

What a strange exhaust pipe.This is the first time I've seen this on a Skyhawk...Not usual for this aircraft.

[@sorincaladera936]

It's a modification the Israelis put on their Skyhawks. Supposedly it helped with reducing heat emissions.

[@jernejfunkl8300]

Thank you for the explanation.@@sorincaladera936

Thanks a lot !!!

fantastische Ansicht! Ist das ein offizieller Spottingpunkt? Grüße Andy

ถ้าเทียบกับเครื่องบินกริพเพนซึ่งเป็นรุ่นใหม่กว่ามันใช้งบประมาณแค่ 10 ถึง 20 เปอร์เซ็นต์ต่อชุดต่อระบบนี้เอง

[@geraldrembert2461]

I wanted to see it take off

[@beefyiceman94]

Can anyone inform me as to what that turbine looking pod is underneath the aircraft? 3:28

[@Chilly_Billy]

Almost certainly an electronic warfare pod of some sort. The turbine being used to generate power.

[@ianmangham4570]

Thats a an Air Ram generator

Correcto así fue con los pilotos argentinos que eran muy buenos y con mucho coraje.

[@simonbird1973]

These Skyhawks are safe, the UK has retired its Harrier jump jets. Are Skyhawks any better against Typhoon’s & F-35B’s? 🤔

[@Chilly_Billy]

They don't need to be, they're used to simulate attacking bombers and missiles against warships.

[@user-ct1nv1yb7n]

มันยังมีข้อดีมากกว่าเครื่อง av8 ทำความเร็วได้มากกว่าบินได้ไกลกว่าน้ำมันเชื้อเพลิงน้อยกว่าดูแลรักษาต่ำกว่าทำเที่ยวบินต่อเดือนได้มากกว่า

ถูกต้อง !! ขอบคุณ

Not bad for airframes that are probably 55 years old.

Ah okay, I was already wondering why "old" american fighter jets are flying around, here in northern german airspace. The high school of air combat is being privatized!😂

Das sieht aus wie Spielzeug.. Passt da überhaupt ein Mensch rein?

Fragen Sie die Royal Navy 😉👌🇦🇷

[@wheelwrightpl9429]

This thing is extremely ugly and hunchbacky compared to those slick Alpha jets !
