A friend of mine was flying one of those RSAF F-15SG's.
Noticed the CAG markings on one of the Growlers. Pretty cool.
At first I thought it was F-15Es because of the tail code, except that it has the missile approach warning sensors (MAWS) below the canopy. Only F-15 SA, SG, QA and EX have these. It was difficult to see the RSAF insignia, but these are based at Mountain Home.
those CAG markings belong to which squadron?
@@speckgens 428th Fighter Squadron, the Buccaneers.
@@speckgens , VFA-113 Stingers !
Those F-15’s are just majestic at the 1:50 mark when they come rolling in like that! Great video!!
The Bone is such a beauty
And loud AF!
@Jax's Aviation I was sleeping in Mather AFB base housing in Sacramento one weekend back in the late 80s. I was in the Buff squadron there at the time. Suddenly, my wife and I spring up out of bed. There’s this incredibly loud roar, cups are falling off shelves, windows are rattling, pictures are swinging, dust’s drifting down from the ceiling. My wife screams, “What the f*ck is that?” I had no idea. My first thought was that it was a tornado, or something, but I could see that it was a bright, sunny morning. Maybe it was an earthquake? Being a Boston boy, I’d never been in one. Come to find out later that day it was just a Bone beating up the pattern!
Hey, Rich, nice catch on that NATO E-3! NATO E-3's are a rare sight in our skies, in fact, 22 years, ago at the '99 Offutt Air Show, I personally saw one of their aircraft wearing a special color scheme commemorating the 50th Anniversary of NATO.
NATO E-3s fly Royal Luxembourg Air Force colours with multinational NATO crews.
I would never be able to work if I lived around there.
Join the air force lol
@@yfposer I should have! 20-20 hindsight! I’m a little no a lot too old!
Nellis is a busy place for sure. They also put on a great air show.
Looks like quite a party. Shout out to the Mountain Home F-15 crews.
I could watch them every day. Eventually I would start begging for a ride.
Love the Growlers and Eagles!
FLYNAVY, BZ!! USAF platforms are simply beautiful, too! Thanks TNS!! God Bless America.
If the Navy had 747's that's how they'd land 'em.
Awesome! As always. Thank you for bringing us the action. Wish I were there!
Thanks for taking the time to show all of us these superior aircraft of the USA. Have fun
They just wrapped 21-1 not long ago.... already time for 21-2? Love it!
I did the NASCAR Race Experience at Las Vegas International Speedway back in November and there was a steady stream of F-15s, F-22s, and F-35s, and a couple of A-10. Thank you for the videos, you do a great job there!
I Love watching the B-1B "Fighter Jocks" coming in !!! : D
Amazing footage thanks, especially the Bones pair arriving .
Besides the IMAX movie Fighter Pilot about RED FLAG , there’s a great documentary from the old MILITARY CHANNEL called RED FLAG. THUNDER OVER NELLIS. EXCELLENT !!! It’s on RUclips still.
Highly recommend. 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Looks like fun. Money will be lost, and won on bets. Efficacy of F-18 Growler comes to mind.
Awesome video Go Air Force!!!!!
Ah, NATO E-3 is there! The Europeans are going to have a great time in Vegas. Wonder if any Americans at all were able to get on this trip. Tail #456... I had 182 mission hours on that aircraft.
When were you there? I was life support 93-98?
@@stevemcgarrett303 I was Sq 3 93-98, then TWSO 98-00
Hey guys! I just missed both of you. I was assigned to the NATO E-3A Component from May 1986 to December 1992, and 552 before that. Both great assignments.
Very magnificent video of all military aircraft especially the F-15SG, B-1B and the E/A-18G Growler 😎🤩
I lived in fredonia az a few years and we went to red flag for the first time I was hooked after all that really enjoyed it
Great video as usual! I always get a good kick at the E/A-18's slamming into the runway like they're landing on a carrier LOL!
Yeah me too...guess it's reflexive to Hornet drivers, even with more than 2 miles of runway straight ahead.
Oh yah it is super funny watching the carrier guys land on a runway
@@delten-eleven1910 Boy this carrier sure is long! And calm sea state too!
The US and Canadian Hornet pilots I know told me it's SOP to not flare the jet (any version) when landing because of the way the landing gear is meant to work. So they are supposed to be "firm" landings.
@@davidsmith8997 Yes indeed the F/A-18 has a trailing link main landing gear that's designed for 15 feet per second drop
The B-1 Lancer it's my favorite aircraft , great video , love Red Flag !!
No B-1 lancers flying anymore, just the slower B1B variants.
F-15SG based out of Mountain Home AFB.
Great shots. Makes me feel like I'm right there!
Worked Red Flag for many years... still in awe
Did a Red Flag back in the day. Deployed our whole Buff wing to Roswell and flew RF missions out of there. Never saw any aliens or UFO’s, though!
Nice catch, Mud Hens and Growlers!
I hope the Red Flag attendees aren’t judged on landings. That 747 hit so hard the light in the top of the Luxor broke.
Practicing “in country” tactical landings?
Nice job !
Compared with the Eagles, F/A-18s( EA-18G) do look bug like...Great video as always!
Not F/A-18s they were E/A-18s
@@deedubs602 yes...I meant that😊...I replied to someone who asked if those were Aim120s on the wing launchers and referenced these are EA-18Gs.👍
I miss working on fa-18's , I was a jet engine mechanic when I was in the Navy
@@delten-eleven1910 EA-18g can carry AIM-120
@@delten-eleven1910 Those are training HARMs, since EA-18G does D-SEAD along with EW.
Very nice video good job !
Sounds a lot like my neighborhood her in Fresno CA with F-15's from the 144th and some weekends you F-18's and various other military aircraft making touch and go's or dropping off or picking up stuff.............the sound of freedom
Nice one Rich,especially the opening shot of the 747, Thanks 🤙
Loving those Singaporean F-15s!
The Bone is such a beast!
Nice and busy!
Great video! I was hoping with all those Strike Eagles there would've been one Pratt powered bird. No offense to the GEs, but I love hearing the eerie whine of the Pratt's air-driven nozzle control (CENC).
Dammit! I love that base! Great video work, man.
I saw the 2 B 1's over WI yesterday!
It's always so beautiful to see...!!!!
...and the Navy pilots are saying, “why isn’t the runway moving around?”.
Pilot: “ooh man I think i missed the wire”
Tower: “no stupid, pull your airbrakes to stop”
BUFFF NICE .COMO SIEMPRE !!!!BUENOS VIDEOS.
Outstanding!
Great job filming thank you
Awesome vid, looking forward to more!
Well filmed, goof stuff
Nice video
Absolutely Great! More please! This makes me feel like I'm really there (wish I was)...L L A P
I noticed the F-15Es had IR like fairings below the canopy and GE F110 engines, are these upgrades Strike Eagles?
Those are f-15sg, from the Singapore Air force. They have a detachment at mountain home, within the 428th fighter squadron.
I noticed that 2....
Yes, and no. The F-15SG does have F110's in the engine bays, but the fairings beneath the aft cockpit are ECM antennas, not IR sensors.
Great video as always! Whose 747-4 was that? I know my company had one scheduled to bring a support package in but I believe it was a night arrival. Some of our Kalitta tails are still supporting the no frills white scheme
Thank you sir! I believe this was ASL AIRLINES
@@TheNellisSpotter correctamundo
My first thought was Kalitta. Need to see what they did at the track this weekend.
@@slowpoke96Z28 did very well
America❤✌💪
Always amazed at how aggressive the super hornet looks compared to the hornet.
Try seeing them at night take off full afterburner...a sight to behold.
Fantastic captures Rich.
Home of the best demo team. TBirds
Great video, thanks for sharing. What focal length lens were you using for the landing shots please?
I could watch that for days o.O
Ouch!!!!! 747 hard touch!
I was stationed at Nellis in 1976 77 worked flight line F 4 D Engine Shop , I miss that shit
I enlisted in 76. Went to Crete Greece then Kirkland in Albuquerque in 78. Went to Nellis TDY on the way to Groom. I was SP. Been back to Nellis in recent years for the air show. Great stuff. 👍🇺🇸
My F-18's. I miss those birds.
What was all the inbound activities at Nellis in early December? Specifically, the C-17's & C-130's that came in.
I believe that the fighter planes are the F18 Superhornets, but I could be wrong.
Wow, the outboard offset of the pylons on those growlers...
Thanks for the nice camera work. Glad you didn’t put music in
The B-1 is so beautiful ❤️
Way to prep that War Birds 🦅. God’s speed Lady’s and Gentlemen. Move out the way we have a Country to Save. Giddy up little Doggie way to drive that Mule. All day long Yahoo
The sound of freedom.
Beautiful images, thank you!
I subscribe to my channel !!!
Fantastic video! Great to see F-15s from Mountain Home.
Did those 18s have AMRAAMs on the them?
Those are E/A-18G Growler variants of the F/A-18F, which have fixed wingtip electronic pods instead of aim-9x launchers.
The Growlers were carrying AGM-88 HARMs under the wings.
No, what you saw out on the wing tips are pods for the AN/ALQ-219 Comms Jamming system.
@@johnosbourn4312 Close. That's the ALQ-218, and they're EW receivers, not comm jammers. All jamming, including comm jamming goes through the ALQ-99 pods under the wings.
I may have to visit Star Wars Canyon near Death Valley National Park to watch some low level flying!
There is no low flying at SWC anymore.
Hello Russian, Chinese and Iranian viewers, get a good look.
🤣
Look at what...shiny USless toys...
“C17 heavy requesting tower flyby....” “Negative, ghostrider. The pattern is full.” Buzzes tower anyway. 😁
I just found this channel and it's great. Is there a similar channel for Naval aviation?
Some captions with where each plane was from would've been helpful.
Noted for next time
VAQ-138 Yellowjackets EA-18G out of NAS whidbey Island
@@TheNellisSpotter any idea where the first two planes were from?
Love to visit Nellis one day
Why is aircraft customization much more visible on navy aircraft then on airforce aircraft? For example, with the exception of tailmarkings and small squadron insignia's. Nearly all f15's look alike. There are very few f15 paintschemes. Am I wrong?
Where those arrivals on RNY 03L/R ? Awesome content thanks for sharing
Both. Every time came in within 30 minutes it seemed. Like a red flag recovery. So the runways got clogged up fast. Growlers and eagles on the left and bones on the right. There were like 50 Shaw birds that came in that took up both runways
@@TheNellisSpotter Awesome, yeah I can guess the crazyness of having both runways active at the same time. Surprised they went for the 03 as the 21 is further away from the town but I guess wind was enough of a factor that they went for the 03s. Anyway tanks for answering, hope I can make it across one time to see it myself.
2160p! What are you using?
HCX1500
God that B-1 is a sexy jet 😍
Nice catch on the Janet "51" flight at 1:08
That's not a Janet flight. Janet flies in and out of McCarran airport. Their planes are white with a red stripe.
That's a Navy C-40, carrying Sailors from the Growler squadron.
When a 12 minutes video are more powerful than your country Air Force...
Quite a few hard landings.
Worked Nellis T/A 86-89. Non stop Red Flag participants Follow Me to parking. Every fighter jet T-38 types want to RON. Call 2 weeks in advance. Transient line was near base ops but sure it’s all different now. AWACS and B-52 parked near fire Dept.
Will there be any B-52 participation during this flag?
Not this one
15s sporting turkey feathers... Hmmm
3:46.. Goose.. I lost him..
God speed to all
Noticed the F-15e with Turkey feathers on? Something new now?
It’s an F-15SG
@@TheNellisSpotter cool, they flying with the U.S. now at mountain home ?
@@TheNellisSpotter I feel stupid now, the Singapore training program.
No don’t be , I should’ve been more clear. Sorry
Those aren't USAF F-15Es, instead those are F-15SGs of the Republic of Singapore Air Force based at Mountain Home AFB, as part of the 428th Fighter Squadron "Buccaneers". This Squadron supports the RSAF's Peace Carvin-V,(5) Detachment, assigned to the 366th Fighter Wing, "Gunfighters".
RAMPAGE!!!!
What are the pods mounted on the wings with the propellers used for??
ECM pods on the Growler. It’s their main way of jamming enemy radars and communication.
Anyone know what are the munitions with little propellers carried by the F-18s?
Jamming Pods
@@Deez276 thanks for that. You learn something new everyday.
Those are Growlers, not F/A-18F. ALQ-99 jamming pods. The "propellers" (Ram Air Turbine) generate electricity to power the pod.
Imagine showing this video to a Soviet spy in the 60s
that moment when you are unsure if the 747 is coming for you, or landing. Are these the New F-15's?
nope... E's i think.
@@SSaugaCriss I believe they may be EX's. Those are GE engine nozzles. US F-15's have been Pratt powered (until the EX) and do not have the "petals" on the nozzle. Plus there is a sensor on the rear near the horizontal stabs that I have not seen on the E. Unless those are Korean, Saudi or Qatari.
@@williamkillingsworth2619 somebody else said they are F15SGs. we're both wrong but np, take care.
@@SSaugaCriss word. I didn't know we sold to Singapore. Thanx.
Why the nozzles of F-15 looks different?
Is that special type of F-15?
F15SG
@@colelje 😊 Thanks
Subtile23
Uh, why do those 15s have GEs?
What are those spinning things on the F-18s wing pylons?
Those are the ALQ-99 ECM pods. The props generate power for the pod.
That's a Growler.
who else is coming to the party ?
