@@visionearthcare That's where your AWAC's come in handy, to avoid a head on collision with an incoming missile. Would be foolish to do anything but vector to where the missile either misses or ends up with a tail shot at worst. No pilot wants to punch out, but if said missile hits the rear of the aircraft, the pilot will have a better chance of punching out. Head on, 20 seconds till impact, the pilot must turn and burn in hopes to survive.

There are only a couple of spots on the carrier footage that are real, they had some made up rooms that are not on the carrier. First off, safety wise and hate to ruin it, but no one would ever be allowed to hold the football for the rabbit to hit. Got to meet some of the actors which was cool. We did get to watch the movie on a big make shift screen on the island, while we we at sea...that was exciting.

It didn't last long, but it was a SH flight lead and the capt. had just arrived from phantom training. The O3 was driving within 3 weeks.

Back in the late 80's we did a CAX out at 29 Palms. There was a Navy F-18 squadron also supporting us on the air side of the house. We were there for a month I think. When it was all done they treated all of us, ground and air side, to big ass feast of grilled steaks, baked potatoes and beer (two apiece lol). After we ate and all the skipper of the Navy F-18 squadron put on a show for us with that beautiful beast out there in the beautiful high desert mountains. He put on that show for about 30 minutes and did some really low passes over us, sonic boomed, verticals etc. That was so freaking cool. The old man had us Marines whooping and hollering with that mini air show. Good memories.

I watched this movie with my best friend when I was young, we were huge into fighter jets as young boys often are, and I loved it. Now, this might be a bit of nostalgia blinding me, even though I can see the flaws of it more now, I still like it. Especially the chase scene, which I watched again entirely just now, and even with the knowledge that the missiles have infinite fuel, it's 1000% riveting. Because they had a real jet flying through a real valley, it doesn't matter how fake the missiles are, it feels visceral. At the end of the day, it's a movie, not a training video on what to do if you get targeted in a fighter jet by a SAM site, so I can forgive a lot of those flaws.

The Super Hornet flying footage was cool. It was fun to be part of the making of it, but I never liked this movie. They used real USMC Huey's when they did the shots on the boat and then switched to a mix of other Huey variants for the scenes on land. I always think it's lame when movies makers think no one will notice the aircraft switch. CVNs don't normally have Huey's onboard, so I enjoyed working with them.

Yeah, I enjoyed this movie too. Incidentally, the production was sued be Scott O'Grady for using story elements without his permission. But, yeah, I remember the scene with the missiles and thinking "what kind of missiles are those that pull all of those maneuvers?" Former SAM operator here and remember how our missiles pretty much ended their boost phase within a few seconds and would coast in a ballistic trajectory after that. Although they did have guidance, but we were told that they had at most one turn in them.

He forgot to mention that one F-16 was unable to deploy chaff and flares due to a malfunction. The pilot, Maj. Emmett Tullia II, didn't realize that until after he had landed. That means he avoided those SAMs only through maneuvers. It makes the whole feat far more impressive.

It's interesting to read about how awards were given during the Vietnam war. I had a brief correspondence with the son of Captain Henry Halleland who was my uncle's XO and then CO of the VF-114. He received multiple awards of the DFC primarily for dodging the SA-2 while flying for the VF-114. When I was reading about Robin Olds, he described dodging the SA-2 as very easy and Business As Usual / all in a day's work.

The HUD footage at the end "everyone wants to be a fighter pilot until you gotta do fighter pilot sxxx" you can tell the pucker factor was high there because the guys voice was getting high pitched. I used to see F-16 and A-10 landing at Ramstein AB from Spanghlem AB to get bombed up and head for KOSOVO. Former USAF aerospace ground support equipment tech here.

If you ever diverted to Ramstein I probably saw you maybe if I wasn't busy on the flightline my flight was in support of the transient AMC aircraft so we had equipment for every heavy in the USAF except of course for bombers. A Bone did divert once sat for 3 days waiting on a replacement engine to get delivered by C-17. One of the other AGE flights had the -60s for fighters and bomb lifts.

Interestingly the movie showed the camera that's normally mounted on the F/A 18 Hornet. That camera is made by Zeiss Optikal, Germany using 70mm roll film...not digital. Digital technology for that camera wasn't available at the time it was invented. I worked the final four years of the project (KS153B), 1996-2000. I worked directly for/under the Executive Vice President of Special Projects and he was the liaison between Zeiss and the US Navy. My job as Senior CADD engineer was translating the hundreds of blueprints from German into English. (I don't speak a word of German)! The resolution of that camera was so high it could read a license plate from a 12-mile slant angle...an amazing piece of optical equipment! Thank you for reviewing the movie...it gave me something to brag about. ::grinning::

Your videos are great and we learn alot from you. It really tells that the job of a fighter pilot and the threats he faces in real world are far more greater than what we see in movies. But what I learnt from your videos that WSO does not have much work in the jets then why they are used? I mean single seater jets are better this way.

@Mars Exulte Well said. I flew CF-18 Hornets in Canada for 10 years (1,200 hours, including part-time on staff tours). Never once did any Canadians fly off carriers, except for a few who went on Exchange with the USN and got carrier qualified. Aircraft type does not equal carrier qualification.

Mars Exulte Many countries do fly Hornets and as such DO get their Carrier Quals. I remember having several Canadian Forces pilots getting their time in when I was abroad the Ike. Makes sense when you think about how we’re in the Middle East and they may need somewhere closer than base to get too because of fuel issues etc.

I've only recently discovered a hidden treasure inside this movie which is the ejection sequence. With the ridiculous missile chase scene in mind for the years after its release, I had never expected any depiction of the aircraft in this movie to be realistic. Then I started building ejection seat models and googled around for info, even went back and dug up this movie, that's when I identified a lot of mechanisms from the actual Martin Baker ejection seat. I've actually tried going frame by frame through the automated sequence. How the firing pins on those pyrotechnic cartridges were pulled out by the wedge slider attached to the ejection handle, and how they slammed inwards after the sliders were pulled off by the pilot, firing up the very start of the ejection sequence. And those floor-mounted claws behind the seat would release. A lot of things were going on and they were packed so tightly in a few seconds that an average person wouldn't notice. Whoever made that prop and animation must have known the seat really well.
