First off, Congrats on 1K subs man!!! It’s been an absolute blast watching and helping with these amazing videos, and second off Vark kicks ass, great video as always 😎
Underrated channel,your videos are really well made and well researched.Can you cover the actions of Iraqi aircraft during the war?Or more air battles and shoot downs
@@IrisAviation91 he was stationed at LN and a base here stateside I can’t remember wich but he also was there when Ghaddafi was the objective. F-111s were sent in a wave that rocked him so hard I’m sure he had to change his shorts.The 1986 United States bombing of Libya, code-named Operation El Dorado Canyon, consisted of air strikes by the United States against Libya on Tuesday 15 April 1986. The attack was carried out by the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps via air strikes, in retaliation for the West Berlin discotheque bombing ten days earlier. There were 40 reported Libyan casualties, and one U.S. plane was shot down. One of the claimed Libyan deaths was of a baby girl, reported to be Muammar Gaddafi's daughter, Hana Gaddafi.However, there are doubts as to whether she was really killed, or whether she really even existed. Among operational United States tactical aircraft, only the General Dynamics F-111 and the A-6 Intruder possessed the ability to attack at night with the required precision. Although the F-111s would be required to fly from distant bases, they were essential to mission success, because the eighteen A-6 available aboard USS Coral Sea (CV-43) and USS America (CV-66) could not carry enough bombs to simultaneously inflict the desired damage on the five targets selected
He also was at Oman and seen Jags beat up the airfield Wich is pretty amazing I’d youve got a chance Google the Omani Jags and Hunters low passes there’s great photos out there. But the F-111 Ghaddafi story ☝🏼👀🤙🏻
When playing the F-111 in “SFMC” for the Desert Storm 1991 campaign I usually prefer the F-111F with Pave Tack. I got that for the 494th TFS, 48th TFW.
Hey, watched a few vids. Like what i see. Subscribed. Hope your channel grows as you want it to. My one single criticism though. Please PLEASE dont add in fake sound effects (such as was done with some of the bomb impacts featured here) i would rather listen to you talk while watching the clip (great clips) than listen to fake noises (this isnt porn....). Keep up the awesome content. Well done
F-111 did a majority of the precision strike heavy lifting of Desert Storm. An excellent platform.

Thanks for everything man, I often think how bad my videos would be without the DCS footage! Thanks man 🤙
The F-111 was a very fast bird....
Yeah, and those swept wings make it look the part also!
Great plane! 🇺🇸

What better aircraft to cut an electronic pathway to your target but a pair of EF-111A Ravens?
R.I.P. F-111
My buddy Kevin was crew on them. Nothing but respect and love for these beasts
Love these F-111s, real crews fought and flew in them, did he fly in the Gulf?
