Cool F15 dogfight video

I dont know if there has been a modern day jet fighter dogfight since VN but this is apparently what it would look like.
Added plus the music isn't Danger Zone TG.

I'd have loved to have gotten confirmation of that in person. That would be a pretty bizarre sight to behold.
Never did see it in a hangar. I arrived literally as it was leaving. Heard the same thing about what a nightmare it was to maintain, though.

On a similar note, my second base in Wichita at McConnell (from Okinawa to Wichita, KS. ) housed the B-1 bomber. That thing was a piece of shit on the ground. They had to hook hoses in a number of places to the wings to collect all the hydraulic fluid that would leak/gush out while it was grounded. Everybody hated them, lol.

This video sucks, but it shows a Saudi RSAF pilot taking down two Iraqi Mirages in Desert Storm. He is driving an F-15...



And I agree wholeheartedly. The F-15 was a superior air-to-air fighter. The argument could be made that the F-15 was the reason the Russians built the MIG-29

They had to upgrade the engines during testing because the force from the cannon was putting the plane at stall speeds.

I got to fly alongside (and by alongside, I was probably 20 miles out) a couple of A-10 while I was in a Cesna 172 coming into the private airport in Oklahoma City. It was awfully cool even sharing the same sky with those guys. The only thing comparable was when I was driving into Whitman for my JAG interview and they had one of the Spirits landing. It flew right over top of my car as I was coming into the base and with flaps down and being that low in the air, the thing absolutely looked like a hovering alien spacecraft. It was completely surreal. I got to go drive the flight line with the base JAG officer; man it was cool. Earlier in that week someone taxiing one had smashed a wing into the garage and really messed it up. Gotta figure that left a mark on their record...
I had not seen that fact, but I like it. But I do know they can mow some forest..

A great debate nobody loses... But I'd throw-out the F-4, F-14, F-16, and FA-18 as something that'll get you plenty of dates for driving...

The Eagle has a kill ratio of something like 110:0

And the Soviets built the MiG-29 because of the F-16 and F-18. We built the F-15 because of the MiG-25, if memory serves.

I miss the sound of them idling on the ground and roaring past on takeoff. My favorite fighter, followed closely by the A-10 and F/A-18 Super Hornet.

I'll defer to your knowledge. After I posted that, I actually thought about the Falcon being the reason for the MIG-29, but wasn't sure (another bad ass fighter in the F-16).

I remember when we first got a look at the F-117. Everybody was in awe of it, then the pilot basically called it a piece of stripped down shit that flew like a trainer, lol.

Col John Boyd, the father of the F15, F16 and to an extent the F18. An incredible man who was influential to three generations of military officers, and at the highest echelons of our government. And you may have never heard of him...

If we had a few more people a little like him, we wouldn't have dogs like the F35.

They definitely take care of their people! My uncle was a fighter pilot stationed in the Philippines (Clark?) through the 80's.

He's an orthopedic surgeon now, and had all his schooling paid for. He's done quite well for himself, and now owns 2 aircraft for his private enjoyment.

He was just in KC in May to go through instruction and training at Garmin headquarters for one of their newer flight decks. I'm not 100% sure, but I think he just upgraded and got a new bird.
