"We were in the worst dogfight I ever dreamed of. There were bogeys like fireflies all over the sky. His F-4 was hit, and he was wounded, but he could've made it back. He stayed in it, saved three planes before he bought it." - Viper (1986)
Jet aircraft are too aerodynamic to fit into Star Wars. Generation Tech just did a video today on why modern jets are actually faster in the atmosphere than Star Wars fighters.
Saw a F4 come in once that was having trouble off the Ranger at Cubi PT Subic bay Philippines. Heard his engines and they sounded way off. Pilot tried to catch a wire on the runway (yeah they got wire on the runways too) and missed and hit hard and then slid off the runway into the grass smoking. Bravo Zulu to the Pilot and Rio for not ejecting and saving the plane. Walked back into the P3 line shack and said hey an F4 just crashed and no one believed me until they heard the sirens. I was young then
The Phantom is my childhood hero! Used to spend summer holidays in Leuchars in Scotland in the 80's with relatives and we were on the flight path for them landing, those memories will never fade.
@@IrishCarney A short combustion chamber gives the engine better power to weigh ratio at the expense of billowing smoke when going full kahoot. Advances in material science allowed for higher compression ratios, and (hence) higher combustion temperatures made it possible to clean it up without sacrificing too much performance, so it was deemed that the smaller visual signature was worth more than a small performance boost.
Germany didn`t have the budget at the time so they bought the F4F, a stripped down E variant. These were later upgraded and carried a variety of weapons and even recieved the radar from the F18.
Normally I'm like a day late to these videos because the TH-cam lords don't recommend them to me when they release but here I am now, also I always love F-4 content but I've been enjoying the prop aircraft stuff a lot recently, keep it up!
Love the video! Quick question, did you change something the past two videos? Some of the visuals look more VR or something. I don't mind it, just want to check if i'm seeing things :) Thanks!!
`You gotta rock the F-4EJ skin for the JASDF and do some low level anti shipping lol. I think the detailing they do on all the doors and panel markings are what makes me love their schemes over any other.
I am a private pilot. Never flown jets at all I have an old Pitts special biplane and am building a ww1 sopwith pup replica from the airdrome company. I just got a computer that can run dcs I am going to try it. Seems like a ton of fun but also seems like it can be very overwhelming
I have never tried dcs. I am a private pilot I never flew jets or anything I have an old Pitts special biplane and am building a sopwith pup replica from the airdrome company. I just got a computer that can run dcs I really want to try it but it seems that learning it can be very overwhelming
ik the phantom feels like a flying tank but i didn't know it was a tank XD. 3 R60 to take it out lmao 12:22 also i didnt know the aim9P was smokeless i thought the aim 9m and x where?
5:45 Is triple A even relevant against "modern jets" like these? Like a legitimate question. I just assume these planes would be flying so fast it would extremely hard to hit them. As well as if they were low enough you would barely have a target in sight for very long you know?

Topgun Viper fan fiction here
What a scrap that was!
Whoever the window replacement guy is in that city just got himself a decades worth of work thanks to that supersonic air battle above his town.
That ending sequence is utter insanity. No one leaving unharmed.
You get a missile, and you get a missile, and you... GET A MISSILE!!!
The Phantom is the only plane that would not look out of place in a Star Wars movie.
I dunno, the Vulcan looks pretty alien and sounds like no other Jet, that howl it makes is spine tingling in person.
SR-71 just entered the chat...

Cough cough F-117 cough
Check out "Astartes"
Needs some giant glowing mushroom clouds in the distance for more realism 😉
Hahah so true

Was at NAS Cubi Point from 81-82 for several months on beach detachment from West Pac with an A7-E squadron. Great memories.

Nice to see some Gepards in Action…… 6:08
12:47 “This is no longer called flying, I’m out” LOL
I know the German F4 when I was a kid. Easy to recognize, because of their heavy black smoke tail!
Be interesting to have a video explaining why that happens and how it got cleaned up in more modern fighters

I love the f4. Always reminds me of dad. He worked on one on the Kitty Hawk during Nam. Vmf114
I never knew the Luftwaffe F-4s didn’t carry Sparrows…interesting indeed

Thanks for the great content, GS! HAPPY THANKSGIVING everybody!
Happy thanksgiving brother
7:13 "Not a fan of that" xD idky but that had me laughing hysterically
The guy that was a little late saving you, splashed two off your 6. Another great video. Thanks GSW!
Man, the constant sonic booms of a high speed furball. Intense stuff!
All that on-the-deck triple-A... Those poor homes in the city.
I love the F-4 content.
At least you gave it a chance. ❤ 💯
He finally did it for an f4 video @11:10
Last moment was like hell yeah let's lose all
This one deserves an Emmy
I like these larger battle type videos.
Fabulous last century stuff - my favourite - reminder of 1980s FTX in Wes Germany with German F-4s buzzing above us …
The Phantom absorbing 3 (presumably) R-60s. Somebody on an assembly line somewhere didn't do quality control. :D
It's so difficult to dogfight in an F4E. Well done.
I just woke up and I get to watch GS what a dub
You should fly the tornado, its been a while and this luftwaffe scenario reminds me of it.
The way they hit you with THREE missiles, you'd swear it was personal..😅😅.
But the phantom stayed intact for the most part...they don't make them like they used too
Love the video! Quick question, did you change something the past two videos? Some of the visuals look more VR or something. I don't mind it, just want to check if i'm seeing things :) Thanks!!
Hello GS Gerat fight even after you got shot down. One thing on this video shows the F4 still kick ass 😂😂😂😂😂
DCS is so damn cinematic
`You gotta rock the F-4EJ skin for the JASDF and do some low level anti shipping lol. I think the detailing they do on all the doors and panel markings are what makes me love their schemes over any other.
10:07 Ace in a day
This Very Awesome.
awesome! well done. very entertaining.
I’ve read somewhere German F4s could carry amraams. I wonder how it would do in a modern environment.
eurofighter vs su57 over europe next!
Under first 30 minutes gang

Those Pitts specials are some of my favorites
Well as soon as I find interest in Germans phantoms here goes him posting a dcs video flying a German phantom😂
13:40 Its still 3Mig21 for 2F4 and one Phantom pilot stay alive
I'm not sure what your controls were like, but it looked like the F4 tanked those first two missile hits. F4 seems to be as tough as the F14.
More alt history scenarios please!
F-15c vs f-4e dogfight soon please
I'm having turkey trouble on the toilet rn
Man I need to get a new joystick and get back into DCS. It's been a few months, but I've also been so focused on school.
I have never tried dcs. I am a private pilot I never flew jets or anything I have an old Pitts special biplane and am building a sopwith pup replica from the airdrome company. I just got a computer that can run dcs I really want to try it but it seems that learning it can be very overwhelming
"Look how they massacred my boy. " ☹
Dude no w as y the f4e just ranked three missles
ik the phantom feels like a flying tank but i didn't know it was a tank XD. 3 R60 to take it out lmao 12:22
also i didnt know the aim9P was smokeless i thought the aim 9m and x where?
Was that 40mm flak? I'm guessing it was considering how low it was and the quantity of the flak. If it was, radar assisted flak is pretty nasty stuff.
Most likely 57mm timed fuze he

Which missiles were the F4 shooting? AIM9 E?
