It was my favorite as a kid before the A-10 replaced it but my list is primarily sticking to combat aircraft and the Blackbird is just a spyplane.

They did test it with a prototype carrying air launched missiles at one point according to Ben Rich's biography, it would basically fly past at some ridiculous speed and altitude, drop a missile, and the missile would go do its thing. USAF decided against it, I don't remember why.

>>219809037

I think they really tried to get the uranium or something like that. Who are this pilot and weapons officer from the downed F15E? What are their names?

You would expect them to be paraded around but - nothing. It's because that wasn't the original objective of the operation.

>>219810212
Yes it was called the YF-12. Identical except the nose.

They should also make a movie about how the fag who bombed little school girls was actually a patriot now suffering from PTSD because the Ayatollah used them as human shields. Starring Mark Wahlberg.

Really clumsy propaganda

While it has faintly grown on me recently I personally find the F-16 to be among my least liked jets.

I see you guys on a lot of boards. Where do you congregate? It's odd for laymen to care this much about vehicles they'll never operate.

Considering adding the Freedom Fighter / Tiger 2 to the very bottom of the list.

You can operate them all in DCS in surprisingly intricate detail and fidelity. A whole lot of fun.

>>219809189
there was multiple clips of American jets flying low in Iran, it's not hard to imagine that an Iranian got one with a heat-seeking missile

I don't think you know what that word means, stop using it.
Military movie based on true story doesn't automatically equal "propaganda." That would make every war movie propaganda. Next time, just say, "I'm brown and hate America because they bombed my cousin" and we'll understand.

Isn't that the plot of Behind Enemy Lines with Owen Wilson?
>>
>>219809037
the real story is that they tried to grab the uranium and got killed. Of course Hollywood was going to write a false story about this botched operation.

That was a fake cover story for a failed special op to recover uranium though

It's easy if you start in another jet. Here's the Iranian battlecam footage:
