Not a huge fan of Israel personally, but you can't fault their pilot's tactics over the years.

Noticed a few cock ups in that vid, such as the mysteriously reappearing drop tanks on the Mirage 3s, after they'd apparently jettisoned them five minutes before, but apart from that is was pretty solid and it's always interesting to hear the pilots telling the tale.

Definitely one of the best vids on air combat I've seen on youtube though, with some good diagrams explaining scissors and yo-yo manoeuvers for dissimilar combat.

Some of the shots looked a bit like they might have been from Jane's IAF sim of a few year's back, which was a really good sim (I've still got that, but I seem to recall it didn't want to run on XP).

Thanks for posting the link.
