The Mig-28.... I mean The F-5C is a fantastic aircraft that I would highly recommend picking up if you are interested in playing later tier fighters. I hope you enjoy the video and thank you so much to Zuit and Stickboy for joining me in the sky. I finally got to re-live my childhood in War Thunder.

It is so hard to not constantly quote Top Gun while flying this.
Goodness gracious great balls of fire!
Can you please do a vid on my favorite aircraft the P-51H
That's what happens when you feel the need...
The need for speed! 🤭🤦🏼♀️💜
7:03 Fun fact: The whole thing about the British unfairly taxing tea was actually propaganda. The British lowered taxes on tea in the Thirteen Colonies in the 1770s, but Founding Fathers like Samuel Adams spun it into the whole "taxation without representation" thing because they'd been making a killing smuggling in tea when the taxes were higher.
My favorite little dogfighter.
For as much hate as this plane gets for being spammed by newbies, it’s just a genuinely fun plane to fly, and a good introduction to missiles and countermeasures for newer players
Oh it’s very fun to fly
i got it at around level 35 and i was already at ~5.0 in air
new players? in jets?? unheard of! nobody would ever skip the grindplay and jump effectively four skill-tiers above their own, by buying a jet early instead of spending weeks to unlock one! nobody would EVER do that!
(i will permanently have jaded hatred towards the whales of this game, even if i watch their content.)
@@carlwheezerofsouls3273screw f4s players man
@@carlwheezerofsouls3273 weeks? I've played the game on and off since before they added tanks, and still don't have jets lol. But I've never really gotten into the grind lol
"I hit a tree! how does this keep happening to me?!" Based on the image at 1:53 it's probably fairly easy to do given the sky is full of bushes.
Right? I was thinking the same thing lol
lol
Such a cool plane. 434 sqn from Cold Lake had one that suffered a flame out due to electric failure, occupants ejected and the plane did an almost perfect wheels up landing on its own. It was recovered slightly bent and then used to train airframe and engine techs.
Yeah we need more CF skins for the F-5C.
... And Philippine air force skin, too
I remember watching Top Gun going "wait...that's not a Mig!" So did my dad lol!
Iron Eagle 2 also had the " Mig29s " but were absolutely F4 phantoms lol
@@sanjurohanamizuki6181
And the first Iron Eagle had Kfirs playing MiG-23s
Oh god when I watched it in the theatre I just about laughed my ass off when they had those F-4's subbing in.@@sanjurohanamizuki6181
Slight correction if it hasn’t been mentioned, the F-5 is still used as an aggressor by the US Navy and USMC at NAS New Orleans, NAS Key West and MCAS Yuma.
Yep! See em daily down here in the Keys. So much fun to watch
Bo never fails to make our days better
Got that right
Agree 100%!! 💜
Very true
I didn't know about that little tidbit about that paint peeling away and you could see the real color of the jet! Now, I have to rewatch that and try to see that. That was a great bit of flying by all 3 of you! That ground and those trees were just jealous that they can't move.
The thing about the AAA shooting you down : they've changed how it works recently during the last major update. They wont fire at you at all until you kill a ground unit if you dont have any bombs or rockets on. You killed that one AI unit, so they started to light you up.
Thanks for the video Zuit, Stick and Bo!! Great flying and even better conversations! 🤭💜
In Bo’s head he sounded like a 67 mustang but out loud he sounded like ford focus
It is so hard to not constantly quote Top Gun while flying some of these planes.
Canada is a repair station for f-5s. My now retired uncle would test fly them after repairs and then fly them back across the ocean to the UK or Germany where another pilot would then fly them back to their end user.
He flew f3’s for the RAF and f-101s, 104s, and ended with the cf-18 in the RCAF.
He loved the simplicity of the f-5
I always love bo's attitude
Bro, when you said "staying alive", the song, the freakin' song, came back into my head!
Absolutely loved seeing Moses part the red sea
Sweet iced tea American style. Long Island ice tea? Would explain the flying at 06:30
Somehow i dont picture Marines drinking tea, even long islands
When you realize AI AA only engage aircraft that destroy ground targets so that sole emplacement he strafed aggro'd and doomed him
Rip
Bo RPing a jet propulsed air shark while trying to RTB was nice
All I hear is the song "danger zone"
I always loved that plane. It has a very nice and particular silhouette. Back when I was young, there was a franco-belgian comic series about a canadian Cold War pilot called "Dan Cooper" who flew different fighters that were historically operated by the Canadian Airforce like the CL-13 Sabre (canadian version of the legendary F-86), the CF-101 Voodoo, the CF-104 Starfighter or the experimental and very advanced for the time CF-105 Arrow. But one of his most important aircrafts was the CF-5 (the canadian version of the F-5) and it was one of my favorite. It was a really fun comic and it had very accurate drawings of different planes from both friendly and opposing forces. It made me interested in Cold War fighters.
There were several franco-belgian high quality comic series about fighter pilots in these times like Tanguy et Laverdure (French Airforce pilots) or Buck Danny (American pilots). The two former are still on going and have been translated in English. I would warmly recommend them for those who loves fighter aircrafts and comics. Buck Danny in particular has been noted for the accuracy of the aircraft drawings and operational procedures.
All fear the might F-5C killer, All hail “The mighty Palm Tree”! Lol😂
Once again, Bo and Co. Bring fun and quality chaos to our lives! Thanks guys!!
I cant find the best video that u ever made they all too good
its obvious what a harrier pilot would drink? PEPSi
Someone else knows about the Pepsi harrier??
Technically still in service with the US. The T-38 Talon is just an unarmed 2 seater F-5. It's been the main supersonic trainer for decades and is only just getting phased out now. Also the USN still has two squadrons for aggressor work.
Also fun fact, a good chunk of the still flying F-5s, aren't actually F-5s. They're Canadair CF-5s. Canadair in Canada made them under license back in the 60s and 70s, supplying the RCAF and also the Royal Netherlands Air Force. Many of these aircraft were in good condition after their respective owners finished using them, so they were sold off to other nations. CF-5s ended up with the Turkish, Hellenic (Greek), Venezuelan, and Botswana air forces, all of which they're still in service with except the Greeks. A number of them are also used by private contractors in the US to provide aggressor services to USAF and USN pilots.
A big refreshing glass of sweet tea... yep, Bo is Southerner confirmed. ;)
Love the video. Keep up the good work, Bo & Co!
The Siren Song of the Ground is hard to resist, her fluffy little Squirrel minions...though cute...are ferocious
G'day Bo, Airfield AA was strangely nerfed recently so being cautious of AA is pointless.
Ohh well that's rare a MiG-21SPS-K carrying the SPS-141 countermeasure pod, that's useful for the current MM.
The battle in the last clip, some reason I could have sworn I heard Freebird playing😂
This channel definitely deserves more subs
They still use the F-5s as Aggressors to train new pilots in our F/A-18s down in Key West.
the squirrels will never let bo fly in peace
Thank you for all of the history and movie facts
I didnt see anyone in in a 4G negative dive... Except for Bo when deciding to be a Lumberjack and not a pilot.
I wanna see Bo pull a Cobra with the F-5C and use more Split S manoeuvres..
6:00 Bo stole that move straight out of Top Gun! He went temporarily below the hard deck to gain the advantage while dogfighting. It worked too (they stopped following him).
Great video Bo!
Thank you stick and Zuit for helping with this video! Great to see ya in another vid Zuit!
Stickboy's new callsign is officially Pickleboy you heard it here first folks XD
3:21 "i am so hard trying to catch him" are you thinking about the volleyball scene again, Bo?
ive been waiting for this day since the f5c first came out
14:55 The ground squirrels were angry at you for crashing a plane into their World Trade Tree
Re. F-5s as Aggressors:
Another reason the F-3 was used in Aggressor Squadrons was because it's flight profile was similar to one of the common Soviet export fighters (I think it was the MiG-19). The A-4 was chosen for a similar reason, apparently it's a good match for the MiG-17.
Note...the F-14's horizontal Stabilizers are about as a big as a wing on the A-4...
@@seawolf4846 Does not surprise me. The Scooter's a dinky little thing next to the F-14.
I wouldn't have turned down the tropical squirrels either.
7:03 Fun fact: The whole thing about the British unfairly taxing tea was actually propaganda. The British lowered taxes on tea in the Thirteen Colonies in the 1770s, but Founding Fathers like Samuel Adams spun it into the whole "taxation without representation" thing because they'd been making a very tidy profit by smuggling tea when the taxes were higher.
"What would a Harrier pilot drink?" Grasshoppers
I am coming for your planes.
When you work in 105 degrees all day. ICED SWEET TEA is life saving. Every Englishman I have been around said they never understood how you could drink it that way,............. until they got to Texas. They all love it now.
15:16 that sound I heard stick make was absolutely hilarious
With this beautiful jet I unlock a entire line of aircraft (from tier 1 to tier 6) in just 3 days. Is just a amazing machine in all aspect
Almost had a Solo Wing Pixy moment there, damn.
Fun fact the USA is still using the f5c for a trainer and they fly over my house a lot
The T-38 is the primary fast jet trainer. They share lineage, but they look very different up close.
Bo flying with one wing reminds me of the song "Three wheels on my wagon" !
Amazing how far you managed to fly with 1 wing :D
Ayo, the MiG-28!
“He is all over me”
-Bo, 2023
Wardog 4, HELLOOOOOO. You still on my tail, kid?
Fox Two! I love Jet Fighting like this! Keep it up Bo!
never see stuff this soon and ive been watching you for years.
I got to see a
Northrup F-5E Tiger2. At the Fort Worth aviation Museum.
Yea the main reason i almost never fly this jet is, its everywhere. And I hate it too, since it makes 9.3-9.7 jets unplayable, do to i refuse to play a full uptier with jets, and just instant quit!
Love the jet videos. We still need to see Bismark upload his promise of flying jets since the BV 238 got the particular number of likes or whatever
I love stickboy, could you play the amx-32 btw
Keep the plane vids alive!
I'm from the discord btw
Love the vid yall. Always enjoy watching jet content also love the Top Gun Facts and quotes
I want the MiG-27, but I want the gun to be accurate. Technically more powerful than the A-10. Allegedly so much so that firing the gun shook the aircraft apart in flight
love you bo
Now the ground AA only attacks when you have destroyed some ground targets otherwise you are never their target.
Fun fact, F-15s actually can (and will) win dogfights against F-5s, despite being as large as they are compared to the F-5
As a southerner. Sweet tea is the answer
good job on the Vid and the flying and keep these amazing Vids coming my man
Nice flying
I waited so long for this video but it was worth the wait!!
after the latest update they made it so that mid map spaa would only shoot u if u destroy other ground units
Great video Bo
Tropical squirrel that’s awesome
bring that thing to 12.0 then you can suffer dogfightting tomcats
Hey, Bo... I'm a bad flyer, but I'd love to see you fly the Barak II. 6 Aim-9p missiles, 20mm Gatling. Who could ask for anything more. :)
An air video! Love it!
Magnetic attraction to trees … explains sooo much!
Hey Bo thanks for another video! Amazing content my guy.
Ihavebeen waiting for so long for this
I see 2 trainers hopping between airports near me all the time
F5c is my money maker currently. Love getting the 6-7kill games
Parting the Sea of Red. Callsign: Moses
My contribution to the algorithm ❤😂
Any and every time is a good bo time
"It doesn't exist if I don't look at it." Bo is a dog, confirmed.
12:05 what a perfect time to specte zuit both die in a matter of seconds 😂
The missile will hit from 1.25 miles, but .6-.8 is perfect
Yeah, ground AAA has gotten pretty dangerous this patch.
6:15 damn the airshow I went to today didn’t drop flares
Great video Bo! I loved it!
When i got this F5c, i just missed out on the chance to get the MiG-28 skin which is a shame
Get the wt live version
I haven't seen Bo fly an F-5 all video.
Stick is not having a good day in air
Both the F 5 and another plane were used as OPFOR planes against F14 in top gun and F15 in red flag exercises
Good video as always keep up the good work have fun and stay safe guys
God bless
it's all fun and games until teammates call out "Pickles"
The trees always win
great video as always Bo
It's so aggravating watching you just watch as enemy planes fly right in front of your guns and see you doing absolutely nothing.
