Sams over Baghdad

Quote:


Saddam killed millions of his own citizens. In fact, he gassed 40,000 Kurds in one shot. 30,000,000 Iraqis liberated and you're complaining? America isn't the problem, it's rodents like you. You ain't got a dog in this fight, boy.

doesnt seem that way to me.. and want to talk about killing innocent people.. what was 9/11?

și cant see!:-(

video can be good but usa army killing innocent people , Allah(god) helps iraq and the other countries

real flying nice fight excellent

It's difficult to believe that this pilot managed to dodge at six SAMs without any flare/chaff. This guy is a legend!!

That GUTS!!!

Excellent footage!

While the video quality isn't great, this is part of the HUD / VTR tape taken by Emmitt 'ET' Tullia as he 'dodged' at least six SAMs that had locked onto his aircraft during 'Package Q', the first daylight raid on Baghdad, on 19 January 1991. 'Package Q' was the largest single strike mission of the war, and likely the single largest F-16 strike package ever flown into combat.

Sadly the Lucky Devils, flying Block 30 F-16C's deployed from Torrejon AB, Spain, lost two aircraft to SAMs that day with both of the pilots, Mike 'Cujo' Roberts flying 87-0228 and Jeff 'Tico' Tice in 87-0257 being captured and held as POW's.

Another note to this video from Mick Bretz, one of our crew chiefs: "Maj. Emmitt 'ET' Tullia came back squaking code 1. After walking around the jet, he changed it to code 2 (In my mind after what he went through should have been a code 3). His entire Chaff/Flare modules were full!!!!! They never fired off, so all that manuvering was w/out counter measures. Some good flying!!!"

That guy is really bleeding all E away, he start out fine at IAS 450, but then he's almost down to IAS 220 at one point, and he is in the altitude range 15K - 20K. My guess he still have all bombs aboard, if not then he is pulling the stick all the way back :)), I don't understand how he can loose so much E. One should not fly slower than that one can generate 9G, otherwise just let the chaffs do the work and pray :)). I would have done a more low G wider pattern at IAS 550, but then again, he probably have all stores left under the wings so .... I wouldn't trade place with him :))

Really good footage,the sound reflects their true feelings.

Gulf war. 614th TFS of the 401st TFW Torreajon Spain. Lost 2 F-16s that day both pilots became POWs. This pilot was a maj, and dodged 6 sams this mission.

2 launches are hard enough that looked like 5 SAMs

How do you figure this is Kosovo?

Thats over Kosovo

holy sh**! That's got to be kinda lame getting shot at all the time.. But nice to see some pilots engaged by SAMs and survive.. ;)

Nice video! There's never too much videos of USAF and USN fighters operating in Iraq.

Excelent, something very inusual

Wow thats intense

wowwww there is more than 4 lunches iy thing very danger
