Man, feels good to know these guys are here to protect your ass when whit hits the fan. Gotta love the Military, no matter what country they're from. They are the true gangsters.
justbe01 You know, those F-16s could have killed you. If your aircraft gets intercepted by some fighter jets, that means that there is something wrong on board or the pilot is flying in, or towards restricted airspace.
@agilefalcon16 Correct. Germany's air force (known as the Luftwaffe) includes the Eurofighter, the McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-4E Phantom II, and the Panavia Tornado series. The fighters in this video are General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin) F-16C Fighting Falcons (with one being a two seater D varient).
Being escorted is usually not a good thing.. it means that the plane probably has lost communication with the tower (military assuming worst case scenario = terrorist takeover) or something is fishy. If these pilots are instructed too, they can shot down the plane...
On the other side, if there is information that the craft will be under attack, or you have bored pilots (which shouldn't be in civil airspace anyways lol) then there will be jets escorting you.
@ blackaces100 That is not an AIM-7 on the wing tip, that is an AIM-120. How do I know this? Because I was in the Air Force for 23 years and I was the guy that loaded all the weapons on the aircraft, which included the F-16, F-15E,, A-10, and the F-111.
@BlackAces100 That is not an AIM-7 on the wing tip, that is an AIM-120. How do I know this? Because I was in the Air Force for 23 years and I was the guy that loaded all the weapons on the aircraft, which included the F-16, F-15E,, A-10, and the F-111.
Those jets have the Belgian flag on their tail. These are Belgian air force F-16's. One of the smallest but also one of the best air forces in the world.
That is not really a good sign when u see F-16s outside your window...You only see that usually during a crisis situation and they can be given the orders to shoot the plane down if the plane is a threat to national security....
@tinman765 - settle down mate. You don't need 3 F-16's to shoot down an airliner.
They wouldn't be flying nicely in echelon formation on the wing like this having a nice stroll through the country side taking in the sights if it was an emergency. All good, my friend. Great photo shoot. That's all.
kind of unusual to have a three ship escort isn't it? most airforces go with a finger four configuration for fighters. not sure of your training over there so this is meant as a question thats all. thanks to anyone who can help.
man, this is incredible. my grandfather, a former Commander USN and Naval Aviator, wouldn't know what to think if some modern fighters swooped in for an escort. i can only imagine how beautiful a sight that would be to him. gahhh
@Curicua Actually, the only reason they would have scattered those f-16s is if they had a reason to believe that there was a terrorist on board and if the plane changed course they would have shot it down. Only basic logic these days considering what happened on 9/11. God bless their souls.
@MrCONMANGUY yea, im sure they would shoot it down with no problem and then say passengers on board were fighting the terrorists which brought the plane down.
Yep, I remember that little town well, we lived there til we got Base Housing. You spend some time in the Mojave too? Man, I surely do miss that High Desert.
@fernfeyes hmmm doubtful. talkin trash to the "Flightline Badass" would've guaranteed u were rackin 'em, stackin 'em & pullin pins w a broken face.......perhaps ur confusing him w another Weapons Tech......
if they were made in 1991, most probably they're about become trash...see my point, you gave huge amount of money to USA just for never used trashes....
