NGL i'd watch more of this content, it's that chill topic that everyone's done at least once when at school bored and looking at NK army bases.
This would be great as a stream
I had absolutely no Idea North Korea's arsenal was that big, they even had Mig 29s!! Phly realy opened my eyes this video
Hope he does china next time XD
Weve had very different lives lol
@@richyket661 doesn’t mean they’re smart enough to fly them! 😂😂
Phly really out here outsourcing the CIA's job to us
Confirmed, Phly is a CIA agent.
Lol
Fun fact: A lot of intelligence that is gathered by the military is open source data. The difficult task is knowing where to look.
Do you know where to?
Tell us master. Make us believe!
gib
Yeah, especially now there's hundreds of tiny satellite called Doves operated by Planet Labs. Not the high resolution imagery like we got on Google Earth, but because there's hundreds of them, they sometime got interesting stuff, for example they manage to capture a Chinese submarine about to enter an underground base, which is freaking cool and rare!
So? Where?
When i was in South Korean army. We actually learn about North Korean aircrafts for identifying. It was very easy to me because there is lot of Soviet Rank 5 aircraft. LOL
Yes they still use old aircraft, but in their service they age like fine wine
@@ramal5708 do they tho? They would be demolished by any more modern aircraft
@@firefightszz I mean they still use cold war/soviet era planes and ground vehicles.
@@ramal5708 yes but only small numbers of those are actually comparable to more modern aircraft, the a-10 is great but anything North Korea has would just instantly be shot down by today’s standards
@@ramal5708 that ain't what fine wine means, they aged like cheap red wine. Sure they technically work, but that's all.

Those "F-16s" look a lot like JF17s actually, could be it.
@@guirohden yeah they do! Idk much about aircraft but looking them both up the JF17 looks just like an F16 with a slightly longer cockpit-nose area.
Is the JF17 a sort of clone of the F16 or is it a coincidence that they look so similar?

Thought the same thing lmao
“One sec guys, gotta go pee on the rover”
As i'm a homegrown CIA analitics myself, i can throw some light on some things :D
4:00 - just a standard Il-18, 10:25 - most probably Yak-11 trainers, 11:50 - 3 blade rotor is Mi-2, 12:10 - Wonsan International Airport was hosting an airshow in September 24-25, 2016 so there's a lot of military jets; that picturee must be from that time. 17:22 - more Yak-11 trainers,
19:06 and 20:50 - just as you said it's South Korea, after the shape i can say those are T-50 or FA-50 Golden Eagles
What were them planes at around 9:00 though?
@@rudolfthecat1176 I think they are target dummies on a gunnery range. There is a airbase for of Mig-19 clones just to the west.
@@legodragonxp I can tell that those dirt hills are standard soviet style plane covers, and I can kinda see a runway in a dirt too. MiG-19 are capable of flying from the dirt.
Or maybe an F-16?
To me the ones at 20:50 look like JF-17s
I believe the prop aircraft are La-9s or La-11s as the North Koreans did use them in the Korean War. They look to have Radial engines and not inlines.
Yak-52
I don't think they still use it. I could agree about the abandoned aircrafts
@@swordsman1137 They still use mig 15s as trainers
@@imperialenforcer2271 Mig-15 is not a prop though
@@swordsman1137 Could very well use them as trainers.
It's civilian Ilushin Il-18 not Il-38. The Il-38 is a maritime patrol and has a big antenna on the front right behind the crew cabin and the magnetic detection long tail.
At timestamp 04:00 just to clarify.
What about coordinates 12°05'20"N 104°09'05"E ? There's a downed passenger airplane in the middle of a forest in Cambodia, many people speculate what it might actually be.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Lemme check that out
Looks old, yet relatively recent maybe 2-6 months ago? (atleast at the time of the satellite taking that picture) as you can still see some ash around the plane
I suspect it's an 80s aircraft, as those have the swept tailwings.
That was proven to be a very lucky moment, the plane happened to be flying there and the satellite took a picture of it there. Its a rare occurance lol
I’ve heard that it’s the flight MH370 that has been lost for around 6 years but of course this is my speculation
@@auspiciouscat5698 not really in cambodia either i think, because its last contact is on south-west of indonesia, at least thats what i remember
a relative of mine visited ussr for work in the late 70's to early 80's and got the opportunity for some reason to visit one of the airfields of st petersburg(leningrad) and he saw the runways lined with fighters with their tires empty just sloughing. This was probably for us satellites to see big numbers of aircraft.
Steve, I get so lost between Wiki and Google maps sometimes! Being a history/geography guy, in addition to a Combat Veteran, I TOTALLY get you, and this concept, all the time!
Thanks for being you Brother!
Dopeeee. Let's make this a regular thing, switch around different counties. We can look at naval bases as well.
I love how you diversify your content it’s just not only war thunder but also sprocket and now this Soviet era plane hunting i like it
And after this video, phlydaily went missing forever, never to be seen
He didn't say anything bad about NK, in fact he was more impressed, I bet the NK spies are impressed by his plane guesses and wanna invite him over to check out the bases
@@ivanemelianov5921 ye i know just for the joke but i still think he should not accept that
10:58 those would be Yak-52 trainers, considering there's a load of them that seems to be a training base for new pilots. And that plane on the taxiway looks like it's actually taxiing. In all the airfield looks active with all of those vehicles around too
The worn down grass in front suggests that they taxi in and out on the grass. Defo in use.
This was an extremely cool experience I've never thought of looking at airfields like this before through Google maps.
I recommend looking around the old airport in my home city Dhaka in Bangladesh. There are aircraft of different eras scattered everywhere,and you can even look at bengali air force installations and anti air missile silos. The most interesting thing I found was an old british hurricane resting in a glorified ditch.
what i would give to smoke a joint in a cockpit of a ww2 aircraft
A hurricane??
someone has to restore that!
we don't have alot of those left anymore
ay m8 what are the coordinates
also, where phly got those coordinates
Hey bro from Bangladesh too. I play warthunder also
@@kakagakakerger4165 I believe he's referring to Tejgaon Airport. If so I located it, I've spotted some MiG 19/21's there. Also tons of helis. Coordinates are 23°46'49"N, 90°22'52"E
I do this, but I look for signs of abandoned railroads and then research their history. Occasionally for the local-ish ones. I'll take my metal detector and scout for old stuff.
whats the best thing you've found
The UK has loads of abandoned railroads/railways.
Abandoned railways are really fun
I loved doing this back in the day, around """Grooms Lake, NV""" :P
There is some seriously weird shit to see out in that area, due to all the military bases and the ordinance ranges.
Tank targets, bomb targets, huge craters, weird nazca lines type stuff drawn in the terrain.
Sadly, I don't have the bandwidth to do it these days, after moving to a rural area with crappy LTE-only :(
(The big green cricles everywhere is farming stuff though, so don't get distracted.)
It'd be cool if you did a video on islands in the Pacific looking for old Japanese and American military installations.
Phly, can you do one of the most expensive duo’s in the game?

PLEASE do more videos like this! Its really fun to see different types of content that are relatively around the same genre of war things, and besides I think we can all agree war thunder gets tiring sometimes! I look forward to different videos in the future and see you fall deeper into insanity!
At around the 11 minute mark, those prop planes are trainers. It costs a lot less to run those, so they are also used to keep up proficiency. The jets are flown very sparingly. The long nosed plane that looks like an F104 is probably an SU-15. The Soviets were known in the late cold war era to give NK the retired, obsolete, or less desirable of their aircraft.
20:00 The FA-50 is a light combat aircraft manufactured by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) for the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF). It is a light combat version of the T-50 Golden Eagle supersonic advanced jet trainer and light attack aircraft.
I think they are the FA-50 as opposed to the T-50 due to the presence of the F-5's meaning they are an active combat unit as opposed to a training unit.
The "MiG 28's" were F-5's
Could be F-16 though. I'm not sure, there is no something we could use to measure the size
@@swordsman1137 they are not F-16's. watch the vid again and see how he compares it with F16's but he knows for sure (as do I) that they are not F16's. Everybody knows what an F16 looks like. Look up FA-50/T-50 and delete your comment.
@@swordsman1137 They are very similar in size so just "measuring" wingspan etc won't tell you squat. If you insist, use the F-5's as a measuring stick. But there is no need because the F-16 doesn't have lerx like this jet (see an F-18's wing for an example of very pronounced lerx)
@@toolbaggers why i need to delete? If i'm wrong its okay. The reason i'm saying it could be F-16 because the wing is not straight enough for me. But maybe its just because the shadow from the tree and its true that actually FA-50
The mig 28 thing was obviously a joke
Holy shit I do this all the time! This is perfect, more of this please.
Same here. Do it in VR and turn of the height limit for extra fun.
Ah,the Zhou shui zi airport at 21:36. I went there ever year when I was a kid. I remember there are some military cargo planes and old Migs hiding in the corner sometimes. Also,because it's Dalian, there are warships everywhere, you can even see people building aircraft carrier from the city.
3:00 some maybe is Mig-17, but is blurry enough so Mig-15 is a good guess.
4:00 its probably An-12. Il-38 is too modern for North Korea (they not purchasing modern aircraft for 5+ years).
6:15 the resolution too blurry. No personal guess here
8:20 Mig-21 or Chinese copy of Mig-21 (J-7). Could be Su-7 with some weird angle.
10:40 its An-2, the angle make it look more like monoplane. They have around 200 in service.
11:50 Mi-2? Must be it. Idk any other soviet triblade chopper. Edit: you could be correct, Mi-4 is also triblade, and NK have some.
12:30 Mig-21 or J-7.
12:45 Mig-15 or Mig-17.
12:53 you're correct. The one and only, Su-25 Frogfoot.
13:05 yeah Mig-29 with some Il-28 on the side of it.
16:20 yeah another An-2 base.
19:10 could be SK F-16, also could be FA-50. I don't have anything to measure the size though
20:15 could be SK F-5. I'm not sure its still in service
13:38 Afaik no Tu-14 on NK. I could be wrong though
13:42 the booze bomber is the old Tu-22 (not to be confused witj Tu-22M)
Done updating
4:00 could be an IL-18
@@lionel6548 probably. Must be something out of service, the only heavy transport i knew still in NK service is An-24. But An-24 only have 2 prop.
Edit: yeah it could be their commercial Il-18
Last one is Il-46
4:00 is an Il-38 without tailboom.
@@badlaamaurukehu no Il-46, its only a prototype
You can do this with Swedens military airfields aswells and you can find: Jas Gripen, Viggen, Draken, J29D, J32B etc.
Altough the majority of the aircraft are in hangars but the hangars are also quite interesting to look at because they are sometimes blended in with the environment.
You mean, they're like hidden in the forest, in a front of highway?
@@abizair1832 They are mostly hidden in bunkers and/or at blurred out airfields.
works for american airfields too
Your da goat my guy hope y’all having a good one!
8:15 looks more like an ICBM then a plane😂😂😂😂😂
Could be SAM site, judging how white the objects are.
@@AlexSDU yh mabye
They look like bombing targets tbh. The way they're laid out on a dirt runway (Not suitable for real jet planes) suggests a training range for North Korean pilots to practice bombing runs on an airfield.
This was unexpectedly fun, part 2 pls
one week later:
"tension between Google and North Korea rises and now N.K. plans to nuke Google"
I love the earth being round and not flat!!!!
Indeed
What a father does in his free time, without kids or womans, looking at NK air bases with a relaxed voice, so relaxed you hear his keybouard and mouse, doing research as a professor with some Beethoven on the background.
Dude, your laugh made my day hahaha thanks for make our days better ply
The an-2 they use them for commando raids,and crop dusting
I feel like the first airport(2:50) I think you probably didnt see aircraft cause it looked like the base was in the mountain, see how the road mysteriously ends right where a cliff is
I think they have a base in the mountain
So underground airbase ace combat style huh? Very cool idea
@@swordsman1137 you never know, there are obviously underground military bases across the world cause we wouldn't need a bomb called a bunker buster, in fact the us has the largest non nuclear bomb and guess what it's made for blowing up bunkers and bases, massive bases and bunkers that need a 18,000 on bomb
@@swordsman1137 that has a 1 mile radius, and can go through 200 feet of reinforced concrete and literally stands for mother of all bombs

nice cooling down content from daily war thunder pain
glad seeing you happy
I actually love this, learning alot from this
Well not many air forces really park their fighters, bombers or attack aircraft out in the open, except for large or medium transport planes. For fighters they usually store them in hangers or park them under a roof spaces, so the satelites or aerial cameras won't see if the aircraft are there or not.
Iirc, most aircraft put in hangar so they not "rotting" from weather and sun. But yeah you're right
@@swordsman1137 except you are a german F104
Then you rust and explode and everyone wonders why

This is more entertaining than I thought
I loved this video, just me eating mini cinnamon rolls while watching at airbases with phly together its like we were just two friends tryinna guess what planes we're looking at. Honestly so cool and relaxing and surprisingly fun!
To watch this video AND get the best out of it: Imagine you are back in school and Phly is the substitute teacher in your history/geography class.
PhlyDaily: i will spy North Korea
North Korean governament: *points at the grave* ok get in
Yo this was such a mint video, please do more!! From NZ 🇳🇿
THIS IS GONNA BE A BANGER

Flat Earthers: *unsubscribes*
@PhlyDaily paperskies video is about tu22 a supersonic bomber tu 28 is a completely different aircraft i would recomend you to read abut it(tu28) and su15 those are very interesting interceptors aircrafts that i think could even be added to war thunder.
Why did I never see this before! Great vid!
11:29 perhaps La-9UTIs, two-seat trainers
I don't think they still use it. But could be true. I can agree with some that abandoned
20:56 That looks like a kf-16 or fa-50 i dont know what that is either 😳
Yeah, i usually compare the wing and the overall size. If it small and have straighter wing, its FA-50
Day 13: Hey Phly, ive been watching you for nearly 2 years, but i downloaded the game 4 weeks ago, im grinding the Russian tree, BMP, T-80 and T-90. I play RB, and ive reached the PT-76B along with the T-34/57. I get 1-4 kills each game. Ive noticed that extremely many of my controls, especially in Air battles are unassigned, and im unsure what every one of them do. I cant seem to find a video where you show all your controls and keybinds. If you have made one, would you link it for me? If you haven’t made one, id really love to see one!
PS! Mini Phly is so cute! Love from Norway.
Trust me dude, phly is the last guy to ask about key bindings and stuff. If you really want to know what certain buttons do then search reddit for answers or ask questions. There are good youtubers out there like hunter that do tutorials on how to set key bindings for stuff like ccip bombing and so on. And btw most buttons literally are so specific that 99.99% of the vehicles cant even use them, so they are pretty unnecessary when it comes to air rb. I am playing this game since 7 years and still didnt figure out 60% of the key bindings and i am still an above average player
@@menkobeastz6331 ill see :)
I grew up on Air Force Bases around the world and I still occasionally go look at the bases I lived on. Whiteman in Missouri (with the B-2, A-10, T-38 and AH-1s) and Robins in Ga with C-5s, C-141, JSTARs, B-1s, C-17, F-15s and whatever else was there getting fixed. Definitely fun
Good video, but I was really hoping for a DCS video. This channel needs more of those!
That moment when you've played so much warthunder that you know a plane's exact specs just by a vague, blurry outline on google maps. haha
But sadly, about half of his guesses were wrong. I posted a link in the main reply with details. I want to do more of these in a community way.
3:35 IL-18
I used to do this all the time with Google Earth. A interesting base is right by Saratov, Russia. Russian Strategic bomber base Engels-2, mostly TU-95 and TU-160 bombers. Plus a outdoor museum next to it with various older bombers and various aircraft. As for North Korea, most of their older aircraft like MiG-17s, MiG-19s, and IL-28s are Chinese copies, same with most of their MiG-21s. But they do have some proper Soviet MiG-21s. The props are probably Yak-11s and Yak-18s. There's one airbase I saw in North Korea that has a bunch of AN-2s but also what looked to be C-47 Dakota's. These were probably Il-12s or even Li-2s.
Honestly, this is quality content
Phly, you've brought back the "Everybody" intro right? Well, there has been a certain song kinda stuck _In My Head_ phor a while that you could also bring back!
Attempt # 242
The song i mean is Virtual Riot - In My Head (feat. PRXZM)
Day 41: Phly, you should play the Hawk III Chinese fighter; 900lbs of bombs in a biplane at 1.0 that you can dogfight in after dropping. Totally balanced.
Love this type of video, please do more
I actually loved this and would like to see more
Phly: " here's the earth its round"
Flat Earther: Impossible
Day 218: Phly, I challenge you to get 8 kills in one game with the SU-5-1. This MBT/Tank Destroyer is severely underloved in your channel.

I was born in 85 and grew up about a mile downrange of Runway 09/R (main T.O Runway) at Heathrow..
Looking at all the longbody Cargo's and more obscure Props in this video really reminded me of the _sheer variety_ of aircraft we used to see flying over.. I can even remember how fkn *loud* some of those rear engine Cargo Planes were, and the streaking exhaust 😂
Sky looks and sounds completely different these days... uniformity, like..
Never really thought about it before... of all videos I did not expect a nostalgia hit from, satellite imagery of N.Korean Airbases is right up there lol
Thanks Phriend ❤🇬🇧

Shows only America on the first ~30 seconds of the video
I love you man never change
Cuban air force bases have floggers on a few. You can find the exact ones from the cuban air force page on wikipedia or just looking around
On the program you can choose between different dates, might be interesting to see what changes happened over time.
A great stream idea would be to read about naval battles of the pacific, since those battle reports are really detailed
LOL i was waiting for you to see one of those South Korean F-35 and blow your mind
More of this please!
I think this would make for a fun, relaxing stream to interact with subs and learn together and discover new stuff!
There are a lot of Antonov An-2 biplanes parked next to the taxiway here: 39°44'50.4"N 127°28'28.6"E
There’s no way those planes aren’t piles of garbage. I work on planes that are maintained 24/7 and they still have hella issues. And those things just sit outside all day.
would watch more of this!
Im glad im not the only one who looks at military bases on google earth. Finding an f-22 at a random military base or looking around aircraft graveyards is pretty entertaining from a nerds perspective.
AN-2 are used for agriculture, spray birds, also regional hops for small cargo and some passenger. Those other planes on the airfield revetments are more then likely "spare parts".
This guy can make any video and make it fun.
One of my favorite things to do on Google Earth is to go around west and central Texas looking for old WWII training bases and auxiliary airfields. You can still see quite a few of them, especially out in the west where it’s mostly desert. The training camps built by Patton out in California near 29 Palms are cool too.
I do the same in England for the old WW2 airbases. A lot are ploughed under, but there's still dozens you can recognise.
I love getting photos from my friends at various us bases with abandoned old tanks lying around, wish I could join up, but I have too much self preservation
You should do this for USAF bases! Really cool what you can see!
Hey Phly! I’m a Geospatial Imagery Intelligence Analyst by trade and this is what I do for work every day. Not the same locations as you showed in the video but just looking at satellite imagery to assess airfields and ports to determine order of battle. Loved the video man
