I read somewhere someone suggesting the the F5 should be built again probably Brazil with updated powerplant, and avionics as a competitor to the J-17. I found the idea interesting.

[@beatboxbuggi6884]

The MiG 29 and SU 27 were definitely the most surprising. The F 4 and Harrier were quite surprising as well. I'm probably most interested in the Sabre simply because I don't need anything exceptionally epic. If I got to choose one free, it'd be the MiG 29 probably. Only problem is, I doubt I could handle the G's that any of these aircraft would present me with even when doing simple turns.

[@therealjimmysworld]

Thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@BooYaa253]

SU 27 seem to be from Ukraine which is the second poorest nation in Europe (now friendly with US), and this plane is the old export version but still surprised it made its way out of the country. I don't think Russians would sell it to private hands

[@JonWright35]

A simple turn in a fighter is going to be about 2-3 G's which any human being should be able to handle just fine. You can also just bank it up to 30 degrees of turn and not pull and it will do a standard rate turn without pulling any G's.

[@Sk0lzky]

@@BooYaa253 Russians have been doing that too for quite some time. It was especially huge during and shortly after perestroika, when you could get anything, from completely operational jets to ballistic missiles. All you needed was connections. Iirc a Japanese doomsday sect got a whole fleet of MI-24s from them lol They're also known for selling decommissioned airplanes to poor countries, in fact there used to be a running joke in Warsaw Pact that once an airplane can't be safely flown anymore it's going to serve another 10 years in Poland, and once it can't fly anymore it's going to be sold to Cuba :v And some of these transport planes are still used by Cuban airlines >

Just to set the record straight, all models of the F-4 Phantom (even the USAF versions) have those "Little Foldy Wings". We used them frequently on our RF-4C's in Germany ... we could fit more of them into the maintenance hangar. Great airplane, I miss working on them a LOT.

@@jonnyboing9177 Indeed you are correct, sir. I was a fuel systems tech. I was happily serving at RAF Upper Heyford when in January 1970 I was dragged, kicking and screaming to ZW (well, as much as a tech sergeant is allowed to kick and scream, that is). You would have loved the place in those days. When the Canadians left they locked every door inside and out and threw the keys into several 55-gallon drums. The first order of business for all new arrivals was to sort through piles of keys to find the ones to open the doors of the areas assigned as offices or shops. I believe most of the enlisted barracks and bachelor officers Q's were open and serviceable but family housing units (Three-story stairwell units, God you just had to love them) were not available for about 60 to 90 days. So you were there still flying missions there 10 years later? Thanks for the memories.

I built BAE / British Aerospace Hawk for almost 20 years. For a short time the whole production of the aircraft was at Brough in East Yorkshire - raw material would be driven through the front gate and we’d send a jet off down the runway. It was an amazing achievement for a small factory in Yorkshire . Sadly Bae pulled the plug on the manufacturing side of the plant and we all had to find other jobs.

Also fairly maint. free. When a Russian defected to Japan, US Gov. took the Mig to Area 51 thinking they may get a few flights out of it before having to service it and without parts it would be useless. They ended up flying it for years without needing service (parts obviously). Interesting story. This is where they found out how robust and durable the Russian equipment was. Very different mindset in Russia. These planes are stationed way out in the middle of nowhere with few support personell and sit for months on end with little flight time. Nato fleet is way better serviced, but that equipment also needs it more. Our systems are way more fine tuned, but less robust IMO.

The A-4 is not a fighter. I flew the F-4 and $2,900,000 might buy this one but you would go broke keeping it in the air. Even on active duty, they were beasts to keep flying and the support equipment is staggering. The J-79 engine while being one of the best was a maintenance nightmare. Every stator blade on it was moveable with the throttle so you can just imagine the linkage that went with it. It also meant no turbo lag or windup like most jets at the time. Instant thrust! A little-known fact but the F-4 could carry more ordinance than a B-17 bomber.
