F/A- 18 HORNET IN-FLIGHT COCKPIT OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM

[mikegallegos7]

The music sucks sand.

[dzhekdeniels]

What the hell this stupid music ... ?

[beesnakeable]

dislike due to shitty music ruining an otherwise cool video

[ruger2275]

FUCK WMA! THIS IS FAIR USE!!! I wish you video makers would file disputes with youtube. There is a tutorial video on here, or just post a disclaimer at the beginning of the video.

[v9vREBORN]

@ruger2275

Copyright infringement is copyright infringement. No matter how retarded or unfair the law is, the law is the law. Here in Canada, the Conservative party of Canada was about to pass a law allowing people to make vids with unlicenced music, but the liberal party killed the bill.

Youtube will take the WMA off...I have done it successfully on my other account.

[trechan]

Personally I think its unpatriotic to take out the music. Especially being as its Pantera, and its the US military.

[Bones1977ify]

FFS class video no audio

[b4sshunt3rgg]

now, i'll find the song COWBOYS FROM HELL on youtube, and play it with this song.

[gpgoss]

That video is one the best FA 18 Hornet videos ever scene. great job!

[terrysky83]

This is an amazing video. Not the typical how awesome it is to fly type of video. It shows a marines air strike mission in detail. I'm quite impressed it even showed the weapon officer's control panel during mission. The F/A-18 may have launched from ground in the video, but it's much more exciting than any other hornets operating from carriers on youtube.

[scrfce123]

Nobody is gaining capitol by placing WMG music on their youtube vids. Similarly, WMG isn't exactly losing money as a result of tracks being incorporated into videos. Removing a track from a vid is incredibly petty and only serves to annoy everybody concerned. I know I'm never going to buy a WMG music CD ever again. Way to fuck up a great vid WMG.

[Ownage2themax3]

@scrfce123 I know. If anything, bands have made MORE money from being used on youtube. I discovered my favorite band - Nightwish - BECAUSE some video wasn't crapped on by WMG. Honestly, WMG should only mute videos that don't give credit to the music authors.

Because of WMG, I'll have no idea how this song sounds unless I find some other video out of the millions on youtube that has this same song. Good job, WMG, you just LOST some of another band's money.

[xJaMeSxdAxdKx]

Hi Strike Eagle, This video deserves its soundtrack back I'll send you a PM on how to get it back

[E46AC]

so

cool

[leonelp51]

8:06 kickass maverick !!!

[iamfritz]

@ LiquidIndian- Saddam's AIr Force had at flights of fighters at two different airbases preparing to launch to intercept our inbound jets first night of OIF. The U.S. commanders simply re-tasked some F-16 flights to bomb them on the ground. After that, they never rose to counter us.

@Silencer- they ARE in the stone age. Maybe that's why they're not afraid.

[LiquidIndian911]

Shooting down what "enemy fighters?" Saddam hid all his fighters, took them out of the country before the war started. The US had pretty much total air dominance. Was there even one air-to-air engagement with the Iraqis?

I don't blame them. If I was looking at 1,000 sorties a day plus cruise missiles from the Americans I'd hide my air force too. Now they just have to get the planes back from the Iranians. Good luck with that.

[amorrison1]

@LiquidIndian911 There were several air to air fights during the 1st Persian Gulf war. The US and allies won them all with the acception of an F/A-18 suspected of being shot down by an Iraqi MiG. The second war, the Iraqi's learned from the 1st and decided not to fly. Because of that decision I say that Iraqi Fighter Pilots are the smartest in the world. They learned from the first time and didn't make the same mistake twice.

[Nickshark1982]

There goes a million bucks!

[neodelphi]

there goes the tax payer's money.

[Captainbritishair]

:(( Destroying our mosques etc.

[Silencer1904]

notice how all the taliban lovers hate our airships?because our jets are there reminder that in the end...we could bomb them back to the stone ages.

[ceskazbrojovka17HMR]

turn it all to a radioactive desert

[pdwman]

Is this VFA-121?

[nakedguitarplyr]

I believe its a VMFA (AW) not sure of the number though.

[Markymarkus060994]

Cool the pilot was wearing helmet filled with digital desert camo

[HAP1oooo]

suck my balls WMG!!!! i want to be a pilot now... wow

[Stampere09]

yeah!!!!! this is fucking awesome!!!

[lonewolf1405]

amazing video, this is awesome, great footage!!

[JangosSoulja]

All these copyright cats should get off the corporate dick and start acting like they actually live on this planet because it pisses me off how unlogical some companys are acting. I bet they sent a letter to the maker of this video with a threat to pay a 150.000.000 $ fine if he uses the audio track again. Fuckin wankers!

[MLGCODSTER24]

agreed,i hate those assholes looking for music that isnt even hurting anyone

[gforcewarrior]

Obviously this guy was getting super rich using your audio track..You know what all this copyright b.s. is doing for you guys WMG? Making me notice your brand name, and as a result, I'll never buy a product I know to be affiliated with you and hope that others will do the same.

[Firecube01]

Hey, the city in the video is Fallujah, Iraq. I wonder if this is the plane that dropped the JDAM in '07. I got the video of the impact of the bomb on the biulding. Awesome stuff.

[arab4lifemuslim4ever]

that hit a mosque, fuck you for saying it's awesome

[Firecube01]

You Muslim fucks kill Marines that have families and you destroy our equipment becuase you're too much of a bitch to fight like men. You'd rather have us chase your sorry ass through your nasty ass cities, but, when we blow up your shit because you shoot at us from it, and we smear your blood all over your own walls, you get all butt-hurt and cry about it. All is fair in love and war. This vid is a spectacular display of firepower and is only a fraction of we have. So shut the hell up and enjoy.

[leonelp51]

sorry but the USS get into that war by their own .. the talibans only make replys :S :S :S with some C4 packages ( it fells like when the first snipers started to take long range shots for not being hurt is the same sense i think ) ... its all they can do againt the uss marines as u said all is fair in love and war so if they kill marines, no problem is fair ... but sad ...

[Captainbritishair]

I know, its sad isnt it :(((

[subrden]

nice video, n cool too

[larryhughes322008]

bad ass video love it

[peace2daearth]

How do you call those cameras that film the wingman?

[Velox0maximus]

it will not load good... becaus of the Audio removE ?

[ribbycage]

nice vid :D

[Zatracenec]

Beautiful footage.....I liked that flying above cloud layer and FLIR or what was that.... So, skip that politics and enjoy the flying.

[MiniCB2]

Shes a buckin bronco:)

[reytjel]

america and this war sucks , because of the fucking war i need to attent flying jetfighters for nato.... Its shit , the best woul be to get the hell out of the country and do nothing , its the best for all the parts , at least economicly!

[rocktehcasbah]

Aren't they Canadian? I Heard Canada sent their f18s to help out during desert storm.

[ktm511]

Nope, these guys are from Mirimar California. VMFA-242 Bats. And yes, the boys from up north helped out too.

[vietnamdude]

i can see airport beside have mig 25 and 21

[SuperHornetPilot]

YEAH!! The sting of the Hornet and Super Hornet pwns ALL terrorist scum!!

[samrichardson05]

Did he land at Edwards

[RacerXGTO]

"C'mon Mav, show me some of that pilot shit."

Hmmm, maybe I should blur out my range to target on my F-18 sim too, wouldn't want to give away some pertinent data there.

[himaxdvd]

azdbackrock: get a life dick head! go and be patriotic on some maple syrup ad and let the avitaion nuts enjoy hornets without some pin dick ass hole trying to sound like he knows it all.

[AZDbackrock]

O yah baby - the fucking dramatic fucking background music - fucking cool - was it made for Harry Schmid the fucking cunt that disobeyed AWAC orders and drop a 200kg bomb on some friendly's around Kandahar a while back?? Oh well only killed 5 Canadians - just fucking pocket change compared to the Iraqi citizens that were killed for no fucking reason - actually I have to go now - I can't stand the fucking ass hole music played for a bunch of cunts!!!! FUCK OFF AND DIE COCK SUCKING AMERICANS

[tullywacker]

azdbackrock:

AMERICA FUCK YEAH, LICK MY BUTT AND SUCK ON MY BALLS

what great nation do u hail from? i dont really care bc my f15 will pound the shit out of ur little rag head supporting tiny dick licking cunt wannabe dildo ass. ill give u my AMERICAN ADDRESS AND U CAN SAY THAT TO AN AMERICANS FACE LIKE A MAN. and dont worry, im going to have urs in about 5min. watch what u say canadian

[Ganonman2]

go canada....just thought i should throw that out there

[ktm511]

atleast your forces help out.

[ktm511]

actually, other countries suck our cocks sense we have the biggest.

[XrudX]

lol

[gforcewarrior]

After you.

[ktm511]

Go get some balls while your sitting in your corner. America rules because we dont take shit from NOBODY.

[911Muscles]

not only do we take shit from everyone...we are full of shit.......now bash me, but you havnt walked a mile in my shoes and I know what im talking about....Bourocratic politics will and IS bringing our great country DOWN!

[BloodRaine25]

the hornet looks alot smaller than i thought it was

[sampsonoff]

dude why is it worth fighting when the iraqis dont even want us there?

ya 911 was unfair, so was the iraq war. over 1.2 million iraqis have been killed since the war started, many of them completely innocent woman and children. when are you going to think that you have gotten "pay-back"?

which people that we kill? the iraqis you want to lay down your life for? be my guest.

bottom line, not worth fighting for

[terenhas]

It's worth fighting for because oil companies that endorse our government have wells there. (not really worth the lives of so many people...) I'm sure plenty of innocent women, MEN, and children were killed in the middle east so far (i added men, why does everyone always leave out men damn it?) but to think the majority of the people killed were innocent, you are smoking some bad shit.

[teamhex]

Lets kill all the pedophiles....O that's right, you don't know who they are, where they are and what there doing. Its not winnable period.

[sampsonoff]

Flamingoface is right. They didn't ask us to go in. If only Cheney listened to his own advice from the 90's he could have saved all the deaths of americans:

watch?v=YENbElb5-xY

Democracy wont work there, thats why Sadam, as big a douche as he was, he kept everyone in line.

It was a pathetic war even before it began.

The iraq war is a stupid war, not worth fighting. the iraqis need to take care of themselves. and what do you mean "hit them where it hurts"?

[jasonextreme]

Can't wait to fly the F-35 Lightning II!!

[flamingoface]

But why did you go into iraq? Because of WMD`s that "disappeared"? Or was it the oil? You really think Bush thought:"Geee, those poor iraqi people. Lets help them!" Im glad saddam is gone, but you make it sound like they ASKED you to liberate them, and then they dont thank you! You say it yourself... You got soldiers dying over there! And for what? Oil?

[terenhas]

regardless of our reason for entering the area, were they not liberated from oppression? But there were signs of recently deconstructed cases for chemical skuds discovered by the UN inspectors, but of course that is not 100% solid proof.

[flamingoface]

Try to define what oppression is. Saddam is dead, and he WAS a dictator, no doubt about it! But does that mean that you will invade every singel country that has a dictator? If the reason for invading was WMD`s why didnt you invade Iraq back in 1988 when he ACTUALLY used gas to kill 5000 civilians? And if the goal was to liberate Iraq why didn`t you do so in the first gulf war? So if you know why Iraq was invaded, please tell me.

[terenhas]

Hey I'm not saying we didn't go in for oil, it's clear we did LOL.  But saying we got nothing accomplished for the Iraqi people would be an outright lie.

[flamingoface]

You managed to remove saddam, and I know what the troops are trying to do for the iraqi people. But dont you think its wrong to invade a country because of oil? Isn`t it a WASTE of human lifes? Do you think that it has been worth it? I had alot of respect for the USA, but as the war unfolded and it became clear that OIL was the objective, NOT WMD`s, I lost alot of respect for your country. I just think its a tragic war, and that it wasn`t nessescary. Thats all...

[ExhibitMan]

This is not a F-18. This is a EA-18G Growler

[apoure25]

no its not. the growler isnt in service yet.

[BloodRaine25]

yea that's a hornet. i can tell by the engine design and placement

[ktm511]

dude, this is an F/A-18D model hornet from VMFA-242. they will tell you the same. If your going to argue, know what your talking about.

[qwerty1869]

whats song is that at 1:45 ??????

please reply

[Lugy17]

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

[gutayui]

ダサくてうるさい音楽なんとかしろ

[RtGFuSiOn]

Is a technology secret, could be a missile firing sytem or a special targeting sytem that they dont want undesired persons to know ShuddupChip. That is why 4:14 to 4:56 is blurred out.

[ShuddupChip]

Great video. How come half the video was blurred out from 4:14 to 4:56? Whats so special about what current radar mode you're in?

[Bubishi9]

wtf 2 person f18

[thetricksterr]

Damn that is badass. If my vision didn't suck I'd be up there with those guys.

[bking9367]

get lasic i read about it and i asked one of my dads friends that is in the navy and used to fly f-14 but he is now retired but still thats what he said.

[metalsw3]

what is second music?

[munkymanmatt]

cowboys from hell by pantera.

great vid, hope to join the raf when im finished college

[k0king491]

i love the f-18 im gonna try to get into the naval cadimey or airforce and fly that or an a-10

[dolamyte911]

Naval Cadimey eh? Go get 'em tiger......

[fa18chornet]

dawnnnnnn bad songs......

[woox200sx]

Great video. Not sure about the brain dead music though.

[danilo85]

muito massa o vídeo!!! posta mais vídeo com atuação dos F-18 no Iraque...

[tmanager6]

i know, cancel the music, and the proper aspect ratio of the original video would be nice too

[shorn2245]

the music ruins it!

[stunningstylez]

why does everyone put music in the background?? the whole point is to listen to the engines....gay

[AEAAMelley]

whoever made this video is more than likely in that squadron, he hears the engines on a daily basis. I work on F/A-18s and coincidentally I'm deployed with that squadron right now, so take it from someone who knows, jet noise gets fucking annoying after a while!

[rovebeetle]

nice video
