FYI: the swearing when they're trying to shoot the guy with a 'winder at the end isn't because the missile wouldn't lock, the pilot forgot to turn the AIM-9 tone up to an audible level.

Edit: Sorry, it was Gulf of Sidra, not Sirta.

Yes, most of it is stock footage, and some of the narration is wrong (the f-14s wanted to get low B/C their weapons would work better compaaired to the Lybian MIGs in a shoot up battle...........intellegence report). The audio is spot on and the last few frames when the f-14 splashes the MIG is accurate.

BTW at the end when the fella is talking about 'un-loading' its not weapons he is talking about.

Google +USAF +"brevity code".

I went through a lot of this jargon preparing an OFP single player campaign based on piloting an A10 Warthog. I received a lot of help from AF servicemen on various game forums. I used the soundtrack of this YouTube film as background environment noise played during one of the campaign's missions.

Gee was that fun! :yep:

OK, what are these calls?
Magnum
Shotgun

Rifle is for AGM-65 Maverick.
Magnum is for AGM-88 HARM.

There doesn't seem to be any munition in Falcon 4 that will give me a "Shotgun" call so heck if I know.

A few years ago I went to Duxford on a cold day and I spotted a MIG-15 on the runaway I had to wait some 20 minutes to watch it take off, well worth the wait. :up:

launching fighters from trucks

I remember reading in "Smitsonians' Air & Space" a while back how US Air Force tried such a program. Article showed F-100's launching from flatbeds. Found out that it was harder on airframes (and pilots) than normal carrier launch. Check mag. archives at library for full details.
