One of the best aircraft for low and fast attacks at the time. I see people saying the Tornado IDS was better, later generation of aircraft with newer technology. The Indian Airforce still love it.
A genius piece of work this aircraft ... like building a spitfire/:mosquito in a wartime timeline, and it did everything right first time...a totally underrated plane.
Brings back all those fond memories of being on 20 Sqn Jaguars at Brüggen - 79 to 81. As an armourer though, we never used a 'V' type loader on an OTR. Being a member of an OTR/Strike load team, we used an 'R' type loader on an OTR, and 'V' type on a strike load.
😊🙏 First learned about this Sepecat Jaguar from Airfix modelling catalogues back in 1978! Still one popular Fighter-Lite Bomber around for many aircraft modellers! Thank You So Much for the well researched data & for sharing! Many Happy Good Blessings in Return to You! 🙏🌷🌿🍎🍊🌎✌💜🕊🇬🇧🇫🇷
My Qatar Airways B 777 Instructor ( Ex RAF ) , told me he flew DHC. Chipmunk - Folland Gnat - Hawker Hunter - Jaguar and Tornado. He said the Jaguar was The Best Low Level Fighter ever , Solid as a Rock !
A shipmate of mine on the USS Ranger in the early '80s witnessed a Jaguar of the Sultan of Oman's air force fly BELOW the level of the angled flight deck as it passed the carrier. That would have put him approximately 20-25 ft above the sea surface. That requires a very good pilot, and a very stable aircraft.
I've always said this, and I'll say it again: When the British and their French counterparts team up, especially across the channel, they have a remarkable ability to design groundbreaking technology-whether it’s planes, trains, or advanced weapon systems. They really know how to push the boundaries. Their latest joint project is the new 40mm Cased Telescopic Ammunition System (CTAS), which has been called a game changer. It delivers 20% more energy downrange than the standard Bofors 40mm cannon ammo, offering greater power and longer range. It's truly impressive. And let's not forget, the Brits also collaborate well with us Americans, and when we combine our efforts, we end up creating some seriously cool tech.
I’ve always said it and I’ll say it again when the British and their French cousins across the moat put their minds together and engineer plaines, trains and weapons systems they put out ground breaking state of the art gear. They should on more projects together with their latest collaboration creation being the new 40mm cased telescopic ammo system (CTAS) that’s been described as a game changer. It has 20% more energy down range than standard bofors 40MM cannon ammo and carried more energy down range and therefore longer range. It’s so cool. The Brits also work well with us Americans and we come up with some cool tech when we put our heads together and come up with awesome gear.
Greetings Dear One A great look back at one of the RAF most formidable aircraft, never a dull moment weather flying the well know Mach loop or some of the well know bombing areas throughout the British Isles depending on her brief for load outs. seeing a pair of jags pop up over the horizon with wet thrust at well BUCKS HIGHT, does tend to make the ears ring and the jet wash hits like a cyclone! Brings back fond childhood memories of these craft which are a dream to fly a real pilots craft its all pilot skills when in flight, all who flew jags never had a bad word for her performance in theatre. She could put the fear of god into people as she vectors to target chances of you splashing the old girl HA Good luck with that, not even SA2 could lock her up! a much loved and greatly missed marvel of tech and co operation between Britain and France. Blessings Love and Light Namaste
I always liked these jets, I first learned about them back in the 80's when I was an air defense gunner in the Army and always thought they were cool looking, just enough aggressiveness in there appearance without being ugly.
no mention of guided munitions like Paveway IV & JDAM . . . it was the next gen weaponry of the Sepecat Jaguar GR3 all weather strike fighter, 1996 onwards . . . Indian Air Force operates no less than 118 Sepecat Jaguar GR1A all weather strike fighters since 1976 . . . in 1989 the air force started upgrading it's Sepecat Jaguar GR1A all weather strike fighter fleet to GR4/4A standard . . . new electronically scanned array radar, glass cockpit & fly-by-wire flight control . . . thus levelling the airframe's capabilities to GR4/4A standards . . . since 1991 the Sepecat Jaguar GR4 all weather strike fighter can carry out air-to-ground precision strike with guided munitions like Paveway IV & JDAM . . .
The Jaguar is unique because it can fly at low altitudes over a long range. At 200 ft outside AWACS coverage, a Jaguar can be more stealthy than an F-22 Raptor at higher altitudes.
When fully loaded it certainly did take a fair amount of runway, and on rotation the target was 17 alpha (14 normally), followed by clawing into the air. Once up to speed, 420kts, it was fine. When completely clean it was very very lively.
@rienkhoek4169 I know, that awesome intake front, a lot a people don't realize the size of the "wild weasel" , when I was little I got to sit in a A-4 and a F-4 , I couldn't believe the size of the Phantom, its literally like 2 rockets with wings, 1 big girl for sure... cheers
Very similar to the Russian "Frogfoot" SU-24 ground support jet. But I suspect the Jaguar Sepecat is faster..... Also reminds me of the Douglas A4 Skyhawk, except the Skyhawk is primarily a carrier borne plane
What's that !...." Global aviation industry " @45:13. Why did you say this ? What on Earth are you talking about...? Does this have anything to do with the demise of the British aircraft industry ? (which btw was planned)
Frank Whittle was not the sole inventor of jet engines !! Hans Von Ohain of Germany actually invented the axial flow compressor turbojet and put it through flight test in Heinkel 178 well before 1939. Whittle concentrated on centrifugal compressors rather , thus whittle's invention was the game changer of aviation travel is a total non-sense statement and he was not the father of jet engines. Brits won the war , good , but that does not give them any authority to alter history and disrespect the work made by Mr Ohain.
Here are a few facts, and food for thought: The biggest mistake is thinking that Whittle was not fully aware that axial compressors would eventually change aviation forever, but when in 1929, he presented his brilliant project to his sole judge, A.A. Griffith (for the record, he was the author of a fundamental seminal paper on axial compressors as early as 1926 when Von Ohain did not have the slightest clue about turbojets), Whittle opted to ditch an axial solution because he was absolutely brilliant. He realized that his country could have a proper interim turbojet ready in a few years. Griffith dismissed (disgracefully) Whittle, delaying and defunding his project for at least six years, until in mid 1935 a friend helped him find minimal funding to create his engine, and that took him less than two years! In the meantime Whittle could not renew his patent for lack of money in 1934 (£4 that is), and since thanks to Griffith the British government could care less about his brilliant projet, they did not even protect it with secrecy. What happened next is that Germany copied Whittle's publicly available work, and distributed it across German universities, landing on the desk of (you guessed it!) Hans Von Ohain and his assistant. Von Ohain tried to minimize the impact of those documents, but his assistant confirmed the extent of the use and inspiration it gave them in the mid-30s. Turns out that the 1939 flight you are mentioning casually used a mix powered engine, also incorporating Whittle's invention... What a shocker that is, considering that the He 178 was responsible for getting government grants by impressing the Nazi leadership. As rightfully predicted by Whittle, the German turbojet was a complete operational disaster, so much that it took the French government (the only country truly interested in those engines at the end of WW2), 120 Nazi engineers, eight endless years to make it operationally proper, but not before radically modifying it and seeking help from a U.S. company as well. You might not know that Metrovick also had an axial turbojet during WW2, but like the German ones, it was so unreliable that despite being superior in performance, it was not considered for operational purposes when pitted against Whittle's engine (and that would be for another decade as well). Whittle engine kickstarted the turbojet era in the U.S. as well, as it was gifted to G.E. in 1941, becoming the first turbojet engine to power an aircraft on U.S. soil (Bell XP-59 in 1942). It also powered the first operational U.S. jet fighter designed by Kelly Johnson (Skunk Works), the Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star, which was also briefly deployed during WW2 for testing in Italy and made it all the way to the Korean War, where it proved to be inferior to the formidable MiG-15, also powered by Whittle's engine of all things (reverse engineered by the Soviets after the British government stupidly sold them 25 units of the RR Nene/Whittle engine), and forcing the U.S, to deploy their first operational axial turbojet powered jet fighter, the F-86 Sabre, but that engine was not derived from those German flawed ones. What you consider Von Ohain's achievement was more than anything a strategic mistake, which is also why, together with Heinkel, he eventually tried to propose the use of a centrifugal turbojet during WW2, which was (stupidly) rejected. Whittle's project was right on the money, and would have given Britain the perfect engine at the time in the perfect place, and that could have happened easily between 1933 and 1935. Britain would have had a reliable and easy-to-develop turbojet before the beginning of the war and not a disastrous engine at the very end, like Nazi Germany had. Obviously, that would have also accelerated the development of Metrovick/Griffith, etc. axial turbojet, which had been put on the side at times, to concentrate on other priorities, going as far as issuing R&D moratoriums. The original sin is Griffith's, and the German sin is to have believed in an engine that they were not able to develop properly, and despite what is commonly said (materials were th eonly problem) that wight years it took the French to make a proper engine is a testament of how bad it was. I have also to add that there is no comparison between Von Ohain's vision and Whittle's. The British inventor had an understanding of the future of turbojets and aviation that Von Ohain could only dream about. Von Ohain was mostly clueless to the true benefits, whereas Whittle understood them and went beyond even as a student in the mid 20s. All you need to do is read his brilliant thesis as a student, and all you need to do is understand how behind von Ohain was (and that is why he had to tap into Whittle's project). Here are the long-lost interviews with Von Ohain; I urge you to watch them, as they are very rare to come by. I don't think you will be very impressed, or at least not as impressed when comparing him to Whittle. Hans Von Ohain’s exclusive lost interview: ua-cam.com/video/BTk_8GCwuzk/v-deo.html Frank Whittle’s series of exclusive lost interviews: Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/crRbwtWquvw/v-deo.html Do not confuse true brilliance (Whittle) with tactical blunders (Nazi Germany); they are not the same thing.
@@Dronescapes my point was one and simple , declaring only Whittle as the brilliance or inventor of jet is not correct , at least some mention of the other inventor is necessary too . Only because of a bad and failed regime , the efforts of a genius can't be underestimated . Thus all these information ( excellent info ) are of no need as no one is questioning the capability of Whittle !!! if using centrifugals are tapping into Whittle's project ! then tapping into Ohains project also happened by the use of axials at similar times .
french/Anglo cooperation=Jaguar,Concorde-both supreme excellence.what happened later with the Euro fighter/rafale.must have been a divorce somewhere-wonder why?
Thanks for this. The Jaguar never seems to get the love it deserves.
One of The Most Beautiful Fighters ever designed !
I dont know exactly what it is but it looks sooooo good
Tough stance ,like an eagle.
agreed, seen them low flying over Cornwall years and years ago
While it's taxiing the airbrakes, and flaps deployed so beautiful. That beefy landing too!
The jaguar should have stayed in long term production, it would be very relevant in today's needs.
Absolutely, a low-cost fighter jet.
Still operated by the Indian Airforce
It looked better with a radome on it
This is best aircraft documentary ive seen so far.
My favorite military aircraft. Absolutely badass.
It was the work horse of Indian Air Force....it still is awesome
One of the best aircraft for low and fast attacks at the time. I see people saying the Tornado IDS was better, later generation of aircraft with newer technology. The Indian Airforce still love it.
A genius piece of work this aircraft ... like building a spitfire/:mosquito in a wartime timeline, and it did everything right first time...a totally underrated plane.
I had the pleasure of a joyride out of Lossie in the early 80's in a 226ocu Jag, unforgettable experience ❤️

My first ever work after leaving school was at RAF Coltishall where they also had Chipmunks for Air Training Corps & university use.
It almost flies everyday over my house in Bangalore India
Incredible (to me) that the Jag is over 50yrs old now, always loved the 2 seater as the looker Jag but the single seater was the meanest looker.

Took my son to Coltishall to see them many times he loved it
Sadly, always overshadowed by the Tornado. Just a great looking aircraft. Longevity and versatility, two hallmarks of all truly great aircraft!
All the low-level pron is appreciated
I totally forgot the mission envelope of the system before I clicked play.
Love your channel❤️❤️
My most favorite and dedicated ground attack aircraft. It loick very aggesive and tough aircrat.
The first and only time I've seen Sidewinder missiles mounted on top of the wings!
That was the Jaguar's trademark n
Before that the British lighting did .
WHAT A GREAT LOOKING! plane
It is an aircraft
Great documentary about a great aircraft! Thanks for uploading it

Looks so much like and reminds me of the TSR2... Its nose, wheels and stance.
However, the tail section screams F4 Phantom.
Beautiful piece of kit ✅
The Jaguar in many ways ended up fulfilling some of the roles that the TSR.2 was supposed to do, namely interdiction attacks behind enemy lines.
One of the first CAS missions I assisted in was with a Jag.
We need this in DCS
A beautiful but agile deep penetration aircraft, stil very capable and dengerous aircraft.
Jaguar is handsome fighter
Still beautiful.
Such a unique small fighter-bomber that knew it stuff. And the only aircraft with upward pylons on top of its wings
The Lightning had those too.
Thanks.
Whatever the capabilities of the Jaguar, I’ll never get over the gear looking like a duck coming in to land on water.
Fantastic documentary!!
Great Aircraft
still an excellent fighter plane. Mitsubishi produced it under license for jdasf.
Enjoyed that, thank you
Glad to hear it!
I remember ducking for cover in the light room of South Stack lighthouse on Anglesey, as a Jaguar sped past just above us.
I always liked these jets, I first learned about them back in the 80's when I was an air defense gunner in the Army and always thought they were cool looking, just enough aggressiveness in there appearance without being ugly.

BONITÃO ESSE JAGUAR.
It even hisses like a jaguar
Awesome weapons platform!.....jc.
IIRC I saw these with missile racks on the upper portion of their wings during Desert Storm...
It's crazy how fighter pilots all look like fighter pilots.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Jaguar weren't the only plane having "Grandmas finest Hour"...
Always thought it looked so strange or unique with thise really long landing gear
It would have been a fine aircraft had it not been so under powered.
That is a relatively homely aircraft. . . Says the lady who loves the A10 Warthog.

Both 6 Gen project should be joined.
Aesa radar,Ng cc missile ,Ng radar Warning receiver ,new mission computer etc.upgrade version of IAF operating till 2028-30 I guess
Till 2035.
Indian Air Force experience - the Jaguar gets airborne because.....the Earth is a sphere... more on this later.
how long is the take off roll? 😀

@@abagatelle Upgrade in engines.
The Jaguar was ultimately the copy of Phantom F4 ...
Anglo French aircraft which was born as trainer and later converted to ground attack fighter aircraft
I'm invested to invest in this cat to protect my mexico
DPSA Deep penetration strike aircraft
The Jaguar always looked like a F-4 Phantom that was loaded and ate to much before lift off
I think more an A5 Sky hawk. Not the IDF camel back
Which is funny because it is much smaller.
@rienkhoek4169 I know, that awesome intake front, a lot a people don't realize the size of the "wild weasel" , when I was little I got to sit in a A-4 and a F-4 , I couldn't believe the size of the Phantom, its literally like 2 rockets with wings, 1 big girl for sure... cheers
Looks similar to a mig-27 Flogger D head on
is it the same as the f4 phantom or completely different?
Completely different. The F4 is almost twice the weight and much bigger.
Another working day at the dam with Jags flying over dropping simulated bombs on you.
Like a little phantom
on a min . 37.10 we can see a bomb CEP 52 N130 . is it a nuke bomb ?
If it’s a AN52 then yes
Very similar to the Russian "Frogfoot" SU-24 ground support jet. But I suspect the Jaguar Sepecat is faster.....
Also reminds me of the Douglas A4 Skyhawk, except the Skyhawk is primarily a carrier borne plane
The cat with CLAWS? They all have claws........literally!!!
