1971 Dangerous Israeli F-4E Mission To Spy On Syrian SAMs | DCS Reenactment
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2024
- In 1971 before Israel received their RF-4 Recon aircraft, they used their combat versions of the F-4E Phantom as a reconnaissance variants to get pictures of advancing Syrian SAMs.
We run our own version of this real mission, with a little extra spice. In the real mission, the F-4E's were not intercepted.

Cap's mission preparedness is a thing to behold. Two minutes from target, "What am I taking pictures of?"
I believe I was supposed to photograph something, just not sure what.
@@grimreapers All good, just teasing. We all enjoy a bit of chaos from time to time.
@@grimreapers if in doubt, make a selfie.
"They gave me this old Canon, and I thought we were taking selfies in our new jet."
The slow motion edits showing the missile intercepts really enhances the presentation; more please.
agree
Omg this one rocked for a quickie
That's what she said
Giggity
Congrats on the baby Cap, but also I really actually quite liked the backseat recording perspective, its really cool to see you be able to focus on things around you that are going on like other F4's or cockpit tools all the while not having to worry about keeping the thing flying, especially so given how incredible this model of the F4 from heatblur is.
I’d love to see more WSO content. It’s like a mini game!
Agree 100%.
We've got the MiG-21, a Sinai Map, and now the F-4E, I demand a GR Reenactment of Operation Rimon 20, when Soviet and Israeli pilots clashed
I also worked chaff / flares / photo flash / & film on the RF-4C's a RAF Alconbury early 80's. We were getting upgraded to the smokeless engines.
How did they upgrade the engines, just something to allow them to burn a different fuel?
I worked on the RF-4C IR mapping system and cross trained to optical cameras so I could go to Red Flag in 1986. I was based at Osan and Zweibrucken after a year at Beale on the SR-71.
It is quite wholesome how Cap's beautiful humans are looking after the channel while his voice is a little broken
trying to do what we can. working out some technical difficulties but hope to keep everyone entertained
@@simba1113 You guys have a great team. ❤
That was really a LOT of fun to watch, very involving. I think having Cap in the back seat made it a lot easier to identify as a viewer along for the ride. The new F-4E has a lot of potential, both mission and entertainment, so I am looking forward to a lot more Phantom adventures
Today's safety briefing: "Don't touch any of the buttons!" - Simba. Good to hear you in the video Cap! Get well soon!
Another free ride from Simba to Cap and he didn't brings no cookies or chips to share.
I LOVE my free rides.
@@grimreapersass, gas or grass. No one rides for free.
Chips are provided by Grump 😂
i really thought I would miss the accent but you nailed it LOL, thank you all for stepping in to keep GR up and running for CAP and the community. I'm still learning DCS and I love GR video format and scenarios.
Some of the shots here in DCS are WAY on par with MSFS 2020. Nice to hear you Cap!
This one was a blast to watch, thanks Cap and crew!
Those 21 AIs seriously overpreform. Not that noticeable if you're in an F16 but when you're in F4, F5s etc. It's super obvious.
all AI planes in DCS use simplified flight models that make them over-perform. Just a thing.
@grimreapers but Mig21 and MiG15 were unaffected by the BFM update that came a few years ago. And so overpreform to the extreme. Its easier to dogfight a MiG29 than a MIG21. As the MiG29 now tries to fly like a MiG29 even if it overpreforms. But the 21 and 15 have no such limitations put on them. And so still flies like they did before the BFM update.
@@grimreapers Yeah DCS need to look at that and try to make it closer to the actual flight models.
CAP wish you a speedy recovery
Simba, Was nice to see you on yesterday's AMVI mission
Really professionally narrated. Get well soon CAP. these videos basically keep me alive. (I have a really slow job TBH). I've made some auto routines for Voice Attack for DCS. I might share these sometime? I only Sim / Fly in DCS in VR. What an amazing piece of work , great job by ED.
First time out - was anyone surprised at the outcome? LOL Thanks GR!!
Absolutely thrilling... and terrifying.
That was fun to watch. Looking forward to more F-4 content. Perhaps a F-4 only thunder dome?
Can it turn tight enough to stay in ring?
@@grimreapers "You're gonna need a bigger Thunderdome."
@@slowhornet4802 yes!
Nice to hear you cap. Hope you get better soon 😁
Now that you can finally play with the F4E I Would love to see a mission that involves Greek and Turkish Phantoms. Those two have been using the certain type from the 70s until now (yes they both still fly them!!!) and almost every day there are engagements between "blue" and "red" F4s over the Agean Sea.
Need to redo best interceptor with the f4 in game now
Yarp
That was tough with a new airframe, chaps!
Cap pulled the old switcharoo on us.
Pretty much walked in house from baby's birthday party as boys were taking off.
@@grimreapershappy birthday baby Cap 🎉
Now I know the view that my Uncle had when he was a Wild Weasel Wizzo in 'Nam!
Hello Cap, hello Reapers' Grim.
I like the recreations of historical events. Take artistic license to make the scenario more fun but be sure to tell us about the differences.
Yeh this one was a bit of a hodgepodge to make.
11:40
Never forget about your T-pot Cap... we're British don't you know 🫖☕️
Agreed
@@grimreapers Do british phantoms came equipped with a boiler just like ya tanks do? (asking for a minor^^)
What an atmospheric vid...Nice one guys great with headphones on
Anyone else notice the black smoke on the runway at takeoff? Really good attention to detail!
High quality content as always.
Why do I still think the Mig 21 is a sexy beast?
You need a proper RF-4C for this mission. Imagine flying into N. Vietnam, at altitude, unarmed and having to hit a specific spot. I only talked to a few of the Vietnam era pilots. Almost all of ours were young Captains.
I think the whole recce thing should be more thing in DCS. Enigma's ECW server is using some scripts. I wish recce would be more integrated into DCS gameplay.
And we would have proper recce equipment / aircraft. E.g. the Jaguar or RF-104 would be nice.
Make photos, and DCS AI would analyze the photos and mark targets. Attackers would have to find the targets based on kneeboard maps...
thanks!
She may fly like a brick but she's still an awesome looking aircraft.
I blame the incompetent photographer in the back...😂
Liked the mission! Calling it "Cap, you (ONLY) had 30-ish jobs in a first-time F4 engagement!" (yes, I make up titles in my bwain)!
BONUS: now have learned about a wall between Israel & Syria. Cool!
Big 😁 & 👍
Good to hear you back Cap! Terrible mission tho 😂
Simba vs Sams, only going to be one winner there 😂
Great mission though, really good sense of peril and speed
Cap like that guy who bums a lift at the start of the battle of Britain movie
That’s why you only make 1 pass
I remember reading something about there being a way of dealing with the smoke. I don't know the exact details but you basically run afterburner on one engine, partial thrust on another, and then trim it out. That would take care of most if not all of the smoke while keeping fuel consumption somewhat reasonable.
I wonder if they modeled that! Will have to try!
First stage of burner to suppress smoke when entering enemy territory is documented in a number of first-hand accounts from Phantom pilots of the era. Pick up a copy of "Phantom Over Vietnam" by John Trotti if you haven't read it.
The damage model is interesting
Futuristic, Hypersonic, and Stealth battle!🙏
The Boy's and Yourself are in F/A-XX's starting airborn with AIM-260's and AI HAVE GLASS F-16 Loyal Wingman! They are representing smaller aircraft and maintain low observable by either having 4 Peregrine's plus 2 AIM-9X or 2 AIM-120D's plus 2 AIM-9X!

Can't, modified missiles are hard limited to 120,000ft. Out of our control.
@@grimreapers well damn
9:18 that’s what she said
I would love to see someone develop a couple skins for the Phantom: Blue Angels, Jungle Tiger Stripe camo, Desert Tiger Stripe camo
12:33 Just a hint: Motors are electrical and engines are mechanical. 👍
You guys should reenact the Battle of Mirbat 1972
What is a good power setting for cruising without ab and maintaining good airspeed?
Awesome video, Cap in the back as a passenger was kinda cool given lack of forward views ....
Still a beautiful Smokey old girl the F-4.
SIMBA!❤
Were the Israeli F-4's set up like USAF planes with a spare set of controls in the back? It would explain the flight instruments Cap was eyeballing.
Pretty sure IAF had twin controls.
And does DCS have an A6 Intruder??
Why was the smokiest jet ever named "phantom?
3:25 JATO is pronounced as Jay-toe, not Jay-towl. 😁
Right from the start I had a bad feeling about this mission...Then Cap turned up & I thought... It's gonna be fine .... Really!!🤔
Any chance of an f4e tutorial? Please
Question: can the DCS F-4E land on a carrier?
If not: when will we see the Grim Reapers trying nevertheless?
The heck what's that constant alarm soun on the back? You fly with hanbrake engaged?
High AoA sound signalization - phantom feature
@@Pillow_Cat ty, loveley airplane and model
0:13 I didn’t know there is a new guy in GR called “myself”, what do you guys think of him?
65 years of F-4 in 2023
Rear seat view is making me feel sick lol
WIIZO! WIIZO! WIIZO! (Pronounced WSO 😂)
Does the f4 run on ave gas or diesel???
While it's not optimal, jets of this era will run pretty well on diesel - which is after all, basically the same underlying base fuel as jet fuel (kerosene). The J-79 was tested on it and it's a lot better than empty tanks. You start to run into some reductions in flight envelope e.g. engine restart capability at higher flight levels. But you can absolutely take off and roar around the sky on diesel with a Phantom in a military emergency if it's all you have available
Cap, you are the reason single seat aircraft were invented. Dead weight. Edit* this made me want the phantom less
Is the f-4 phantom really delayed till may22
It seems like. Wasnt able for dl about 1 hour ago. :/
But cant find any official statement
Lucky me. I was still able to get it for reduced price, even though it was full price earlier. :D
@@CommDante always Look on the Bright side. Glad for you :)
@@IlaireorNinniach
Tnx. Almost missed out on it due to having a bit of month left at end of salary. :D
What is this nonsense of Simba flying the plane from the front seat?
Agreed
nah, no videos is better than listening to the guy who can't chew with his mouth shut.
Lol, " wrecky " missions.
What a bunch of buffoons.... You have embarrassed the IDF, the IAF and Prime Minister Meir!
