I was a FAC in Vietnam, flying the O1 Birddog. Fairly common to have F4s show up with that many bombs, usually 15 max per plane. Loved that!

Whenever GS shows that rear-aspect shot of the turbine nozzles opening up and the burners kicking in, I'm reminded of the scene in Fellowship Of The Ring where the Balrog roars at Gandalf on the bridge.

Thank you for all the F-4 Phantom action. I was at an air show at Forbes Field outside of Topeka Kansas in 1986. Four Kansas Air National Guard F-4Ds took off from a runway we couldn't see, and blasted overhead at very close to Mach 1. The thunderclap was unbelievable. I caught sight of the four aircraft just a split second before they roared overhead, and they were ahead of their own sound, so when I saw them, they were silent. Then came the thunderous BOOM. I have loved the F-4 ever since. It was so hot that day that I got lightheaded and opened my camera before I rewound the film (this was long before digital cameras). I lost photos of a lot of aircraft I never got to see again.

Your flying is so slick. Most pilots went the entire war without seeing a single mig. 3 in a row. General Olds would be proud

F-4 Phantom, when in doubt, power out!!

Starting to butter those landings

love this module. The name Lead sled 100% fits 100%. Thats how she behaves.

Dude the Intro of the video, as well as the First half with the bombing run. The fact that GS just joined a guy, did a run and split. I keep coming back to this video now. Holy smokes, This video is Fire! (This is primarily just talking about the first half too.. not even talking about the second half)

when I was little, I once had a model set of 5 F-4s, with the details of the Thunderbirds.

Impressive! Simply impressive! The F-4 Phantom was the first model I built when I was a kid. Love it

Heatblur should do all the vietnam era aircraft, F100, F105, A26, A6, A1, F8, A7, etc.

The Mig unplanned rapid disassembly specialist.

With all the bombs on that thing, I wouldn't be surprised if the pilots carried bombs in the cockpit.

Id like to see potentially a mirror dogfight, to take out the planes differences and really show some tricks to winning against the same plane. Might be a dogfight that you need to really think about more, than simply "how do i fight this type of jet."

Wow, this looks incredible. I'm not really interested in flying the phantom myself, as I'm purely a Tomcat guy, but this is wild. When you looked out into the open ocean and saw all the flak and flares flying while you went through the clouds I couldn't help but say wow.

Ever since I was a kid in the 80s, the F-4E 2 has always been my favorite fighter jet. Incredible looking airplane.

It's hard to not get slightly aroused when the blowers kick on for takeoff, pun absolutely intended

F/A-18E/F vs F-35C (Fox-2 fight) would be epic to see! Navy vs Navy : Old vs New Day 30

Amazing ! Love the F4 !!! My personal fave of the retro craft.

Phew, I was almost out of videos to watch and was about to have to go be productive, good timing!! lol

So, I said yesterday that I'd like to see the Sparrows used more. Well, I looked into them a little more, and apparently the Sparrows, especially the early ones, had a hard time locking small targets. They were apparently meant more for hitting larger bombers when they first came out? Apparently the kill rate was only something like 10% for the earlier Sparrows in real world use as well, so I guess even if you did try to use them more, I shouldn't expect them to do much!

The join up reminded me, the Blue Angels flew the F-4 for a year or two?

Keep the F-4E content coming! Something about hearing from Jester just makes the vid so exciting!

Is it just me, or does anyone else love how the snakeyes look dropping from an f4e?😏

The first model airplane I ever built was an F4 with this exact paint job!

Love the F-4!! One of the coolest jets ever. I remember watching them take off in Okinawa quite a few years ago now.

That intro of the F-4 fully loaded. It's so beautiful

Absolute beast. Lovin this thing more and more.

I absolutely love this channel man

these are the kind of missions I really like . . . great job 👍

“Gator don’t play!” -Growling Sidewinder

The friendly F-4 is here to remind us all that with big enough engines, even a brick will go supersonic

Man your content never disappoints. I've been subscribed to GS for a few years now and it's the Best. You get to learn the formula and watch this Guy splash bandits. ThankYou GS

That SEA paint scheme was gorgeous on those Phantoms. I have an E model from that very base (JV) that I'll be making in few months.

These opening scenes have been absolute fire lately!

Really enjoying the POV of missile. I'd welcome more !

They say F15 a missile truck But the real one is F4 phantom the amount of load it takes is mind-blowing

The Phantom in this colour scheme always reminds me of the opening animation for the old Fighter Bomber sim by Activision.

8:53 That Fishbed definitely *shit* the bed... XD

Looks like you are enjoying the Phantom there! :)

Thanks!

Robin Olds would be proud

The F-4 is a flying freight train with all the stuff you can load on it. On other planes you have to choose between this or that, on the F-4 you just load everything.

Awesome video ❤

We need to see more of this❤

Of all the fighters I love the look of the F4 the best. So these F4 fights have been wonderful.

DCS _really_ needs a Vietnam map, so people stop blowing up Guam and Saipan.

Great bomb run and 3 made debris. Outstanding!

The F-4 was quite the bomb truck for its time.

loving the phantom content

4:30 camera man never dies

That Fkn intro! 🔥

GS be like Looney Toons "Shh! I'm hunting MiGs." Apparently it's season now.

I just love the phantom so much

Meanest looking fighter. Sorta hulking, like what Bismarck was to battleships. And it is still fast today.

I really hope GS releases a 2 Morons special about learning to fly the YF-23, followed by a mission and a dogfight video with GS behind the stick.

That Phantom is loaded up like a bus in Bangladesh

Can't wait to hop into this new Phantom, still about a month into DCS and only have been flying the F-18 so really hyped to try something new

Great vid! Uses the F 4 Phantom always a chute for landing?

That paint job...me like.

it looks Phantastic, but they have not mastered the sound of J79-17 engines yet

That intro is a very interesting loadout for a Mig Hunter. Unless it was for parked Migs 🤣 4:!5 ahh, yes exactly what happened. Nice. So back in the 60s they experimented at the testing range on putting 15! gun pods under one of these. I want to see someone mod this to allow that and see what sort of A2G damage that would do.

Wish the USAF got more Growling Sidewinder back in the Vietnam time

Badass man

Is he turning up the graphics resolution in the intros for the videos lately? Seems that way to me. I like it!

i love the visuals with the older missiles, so much cooler then modern smokeless shit haha, at least as a viewer

Petition for GS to do a video with OperatorDrewski 🙏

Very nice :)

Great video! How do you aim for the bombing?

THis is fucking amazing to watch!!!

Do a scenario over North Vietnam using the same flight pattern, speed and call signs as the F-105 to lure in a group of Mig 21's.

1:16 I wonder if the brakes could actually hold the plane stationary with AB.

We need a night strike mission against ground targets so we can watch the sky dance with tracers and se you weave through them to the targets

oh my god, yes, how many times I can buy this module already

Recently read Phantom In the River, an excellent true story about an F4 strike that didn't go as planned in Vietnam. Triple A was a problem as they knew when and where we were coming.

@TR4Ajim

In Vietnam the USAF repeatedly flew the same routes so the NVA had little trouble setting up very effective defense corridors. This was especially true with B52 strikes. Of course the USAF and Navy were also flying with VERY heavy operational restrictions. LBJ famously said “they can’t bomb an outhouse without my say so”.

That's a lot of boom boom

The model lacks the smoke trail. The long brown trail giving the plane away against any kind of sky.

Would love to see Bandit Unknown F-4 video or F-15 v F-16 fox 2 fight
