the russians had this over 10 years ago... this is a mere copy of what they already have,why is it that the russians do more with less money??

[2011futuremarine]

They had infrared seeking radars which we also had 50 years ago. This AIM 9-X is just one of the most advanced.

Poor RF-4E :)))))))))

[thomashenao]

Not the F4 :( at least give them a chance with some flares

@dnlcast2 A mere copy? Russia copied the Aim-9 as the "K-13" or "AA-2" used them for decades...

Answer to thrust vectoring aircraft.

@grex2845 F15/SU 27? No, I think you had better do some research on this one mate, SU27 is no copy of anything and it was spotted on a hard standing before the F15 left the ground.

[killaoflimmus]

This is a disgusting video, it appears to me that they are using F4 Phantoms as drones, I cannot watch Spooky being damaged by missiles........sob, sob. :'(

[gketchup777]

Oh dammit, how gladly I would accept one of those F-4 drones. It is sad that those beautiful pieces of technology end up like this :(

1:22 Navy, the best pilots in the world..... Go Air Force!!

sorry mate,the r-74 av a inferior IR seeker n tracking systems than the aim-9x,also, the aim-9x av a 90 degree off-boresight engagement capability n the r-74 av 60 deg.off-boresight engagement capability,so do the math n see who better,oh,only the german iris-t can match the aim-9x in technology n capability,r-74 is now the 4th or 3rd best off-boresight capable missile behind aim-9x n iris-t.
