Insider's view of the Air Warfare Instructor Course Dawn Strike

- It's an insider's view... with a view! Here's your chance to see the Air Warfare Instructor Course (AWIC) Dawn Strike from the cockpit of an F/A-18A/B Hornet.
Earlier this month the Dawn Strike - the last AWIC activity - saw around 35 of our aircraft in the skies over RAAF Base Williamtown for a simulated attack - the last. After six months of gruelling training, our latest Air Warfare Instuctors have well and truly earned their patches.

I've been an aircraft engineer for 35 years and this never gets old.... Amazing!!
First, I love Australia and its airforce
@Eternal Peace He loves donuts obviously
Nice scenery of Stockton Beach Newcastle...thanks for the post guys!!!
Excellent capture of a magnificent landing!
Thank you very much for your service
I play a lot of the F18 module in Digital combat simulator. I always thought the smoothness of the ride was so unrealistic, but after seeing this video i know now that it is just that smooth IRL.
Too "F-ING" cool! Best vid I've seen in a while. Kudos Australia, Mate!
Great video, thanks 👍🏻🇦🇺
awesome
This stuff is awesome. Love it. 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
Nice vid more please!
Love this! 🤙
RAAF Base Williamstown, my home RAAF Base. How I knew was from "Fighter World" at 6:42
4:45 love that heavy pull. Can see the vapes
That's gotta be a cool gig to have.
Looks like Radar display on left DDI is visible (although hard to be sure), but SA mode/Link 16 (classified) on right DDI hashed out??
Awesome
Anyone know what the normal pattern altitude for the hornet is at Williamstown?
1500ft AMSL
Flight of four rejoin. Awesome.
Clean.
Thanks boys👍🇦🇺
Nice 👍🏻
Nice mattt love ya mate
It would be awesome to get a video on the PC21 Startup

Its probably pretty similar to this one of the PC-9.

Big thumbs up for no stupid music!
What's the static like noise that can heard near willy?
3cru?
CCT or JTAC near by
YES 🥰
how come the radar was blurred during takeoff but not for the whole video?
I don’t know
He was in RWS for takeoff and considering you can see the scan lines pattern past the blur, he went from RWS to Spotlight search then to TWS because you see the NIRD circle on the hud repeater located on the left DDI indicating he has a soft lock on his flight lead who took off seconds before him( why do this when the SA format shows everything via MIDS net??) Then again we're talking about the same people who censored the AIM-120 boresight visual segmented ring displayed on the Easty vs Walshy ACM training video. There is really no need to censor any of this as it's all publicly available material.
I mean I guess its to cover up where the base is.
@@Xen06660 He's in the Attack Format, it won't show anything more than bulleyes hook and bra in relation to a trackfile.
HSI and the Situational Awareness Format would but only if done on the AMPCD and only if the MAP option was selected.
They hid it in a vain attempt to hide the radar modes of the APG-73.
What are the vertical lines that appears momentarily on the radar page on the right ddi? Some long and some short?
Was going to ask the same question...
Looks like Williamstown
'Williamtown' - and it is. Cheers.
@@hdmccart6735 The end is, start is Amberley
Is that Simmo?
Its matt trayling
Can you boys quit dropping Pizza leaflets over my house?! STRAYA!
Risk of bird strike must be so high
As me being a Aussie im proud to say that China will be scared of our Air force.
ASonOfAUlsterFather 9 I agree
@书中自有黄金屋 No your people would be too busy buying baby milk powder to replace your tainted stuff to bother aussies
@书中自有黄金屋 Your jets are total shit! America would kick your ass and you know it! There Navy alone would wipe you off the map! Oh and our pilots haven't got slots for eyes and are much much better pilots than you could ever dream of! Go and eat your offal and cats for breakfast commie!!
Hell yeah it makes ya proud (y)
I wouldn't say scared but we are far better trained the the chinese
For a supposed Aussie your English does not seem to be up to native English standards.. ""As me being a Aussie???"" It really looks like English is not your first language..
😲 💨 ✈ 💨 ✈ 💨 ✈ 🦘STRAYA 🐨cool stuff 👍
i was lucky to see that usa Bomber in 2006 - darwin 1 day secrete drop in a guy & work used to be in charge of Air force mech bomber crew back in
the vietnam war days and gave us guys the message the bomber is visiting for 1 day so 2pm be ready when it leaves WOW it was huge as it turned sideways leaving no one can see it & gives darwin a signal when its 100 kms out beforehand 😲💭Then the roar of jets can be heard across the sky
a few fighter jets would do flybys late night over the Bay & put the afterburners on looked like a nuke missile about to hit 💨✈Awesome to watch 👍🦘
What?
These are the same exact aircraft that we are flying. Originally back in 1982 we started receiving Hornets deliveries. We bought 138 CF-18's, 98 A 1 seat variants and 40 B 2 seat variants. Starting in 2007 and ending in 2010, the Stage 2 increment of Canadian CF-18 modernization was completed on 80 aircraft, 62 A variants and 18 B variants. As of 2017 that 80 aircraft became 76 aircraft. That isn't enough to fulfill our NORAD, NATO, UN and other responsibilities.
It was decided to buy 25 Australian used F-18 A/B models, 18 in flyable condition, and 7 spares for parts and testing. The deal cost $90 million, but will be closer to $500 million when civilians and other infrastructure are paid for. The first 2 Australian F-18s arrived in Canada in Feb 2019. The Aussie's landed, pulled out their software and the Canucks installed their software.
We were supposed to have bough 18 brand new F-18 E/F Superhornets "But in 2017 Boeing complained to the U.S. Commerce Department that Canadian subsidies for Quebec-based Bombardier allowed it to sell its C-series civilian passenger aircraft in the U.S. at cut-rate prices. As a result, the Trump administration brought in a tariff of almost 300 per cent against the Bombardier aircraft sold in the U.S. In retaliation, Canada cancelled the deal to buy the 18 Super Hornets. That project would have cost more than US$5 billion."
The Superhornet is advertized as a simple continuation of the a/b/c/d Hornet family. It has a different wing and actually is quite a different aircraft.
The RAAF has 24 Super Hornets....they were procured leading up to the 2010 F111 retirement. And also 11 Growlers.
Rhino's are way better and with blk3 coming , awesome jet!
So basically, Canada wasn’t playing by the rules and then got upset when called out for it
Noisy old flight deck.
Love it our tax dollars at work...
But they own these right, not like the ermmm, submarines, hehe.
