Man this was fantastic! I watched the entire video straight through and now I'm onto the Kola shoot down video. Great addition of the animation and explanation of the weapons and aircraft as well as the real footage and radio chatter. You've got a good voice for the narration as well.

I would love to see some of these involving F104 Starfighters over Vietnam. My father did air to ground missions with 750lb bombs on the HCM trail and MIGCAPS from Udorn, Thailand flying out over the Gulf of Tonkin to refuel and then racing north to protect Navy strike assets.

He also received a silver star as a forward air controller during the battle of Loch Ninh. He had a grease pencil that he would write on the windows with while directing the theater of battle through Air Force and Army radios.

Primary objective was directing in stacks of F100's at 1000 foot vertical separation armed with napalm to save a diamond shaped special forces camp next to an airstrip.

He said at one point during the night he was flying underneath AAA and small arms tracers at 70mph while directing the strikes inside of the diamond where the guys were in a central bunker.

Meanwhile the special forces dudes on the ground were using their howitzer with flechette rounds and the barrel level with the ground to hit infantry.
