Arthur, the F16 can carry 6 missiles. You can swap out the bomb racks and put missile rails in that position. I spent my whole air force career on the F16
How likely is it that they use extra fuel tanks on the center pylon as well as under the wings? I understand that that is more of a ferry flight kinda thing, but would that be acceptable for being on CAP station for a prolonged time, if missiles/drones are suspected to be inbound?
He's an Army dude, knows little about Aircraft. I spent some time at Luke AFB on the early F-16's that were at Hill AFB before that! We're talking about A/B Models.
I agree with the absurdity of some of the Lex Fridman interview style towards someone as expert as Zelenskyy. However, I did appreciate that when Zelenskyy was asked the pure propaganda points, he was given the opportunity to respond to them and demolish them in a clear and uninterrupted way. For me that was a positive about raising them, as many of Fridman’s audience will only hear the russian side and not the actual facts.
I couldn't even finish the interview because of Lex's utterly brainless questions.. Especially of him pushing for "pEaCe" the whole damn time.. But what's most insane to me is that he has an absolutely HUGE audience and spews such utter lunatic nonsense!!
I am a Dane and have had many projects in Greenland, and been there many times, also at the American Thule base... Buying part of our country seems completely absurd.

USA has almost unlimited Acces to Greenland, acording to deals made after WWII, and exspanded since. They have a huge base there (Thule Air Base) and even had bombers with nukes land there, despite Nukes not being allowed in Denmark in general. Denmark is a strong supporter of USA, and has been a willing pariticpant in everything USA has done for decades, even when USA went into Iraq, afghanistan and whatnot. The loses per soilders sent was higer in Denmark during Afghanistan, than even the US losses, (the highest loss per capita) and we willingly took the assignment in the helman province in Afghanistan, when noone else but UK wanted to be there, as it was by far the most deadly area. We have been one of USA's closest allies for decades..... hearing Trump threatens us now with "taking" greenland is just.....i dunno know. Honestly, i think Trump is starting to sound more and more like Putin.... If he does half what he said (Canada, Greenland, Panama, Pull out of NATO, Mexicoand so much more) USA will end up being isolated, who wants an ally that turns your back on you. Some Americans might think its a good thing, but they will find out to their suprise that they are as reliant on the rest of the world, as we are on them, for trade, stability, order, and prosperity.
It's because Trump wants favorable rates for a new gas pipeline. He starts negotiations from the most extreme end, and works back from there. I don't think it's a good strategy, but it's not new at all
I agree with some of the things you have written. However I think there is a plan from China to attack USA soon. As per the letter written by the green beret to Shawn Ryan. You should look into this. Also America has paid for the defence of Europe for quite some time, that’s why they may feel entitled to this land to ensure their security since its an easy way to station munitions to hit America, either by Russia or China. I don’t believe trump actually wants to do this but is more of a ploy to get NATO to up its spend and comply. Being honest if NATO and the US separate it’s bad for everyone in Europe. China will not spare Europe. There is a feeling that NATO are the morally superior force, but after Iraq and Afghan, I don’t think NATO are to be trusted anyway. Far too many bureaucrats, corporate interests and corrupt war mongers trying to justify their existence. Personally I think NATO, the EU and everything in between should be disbanded and new alliances formed, preferably with America. If it is true about US and China possessing alien technology, which is increasingly likely, we are all doomed.
A detail here: greenland isn't denmark, it's an autonomous region who hasn't achieved independance due to financial reasons and not due to any aligience to denmark.
A little background information about Denmark, Greenland and the US: - Denmark and Greenland has been together since 1814 (actually since the 13th Century) - the US recognized FULL DANISH SOVEREIGNTY over Greenland in 1917 in connection with the purchase of Danish Westindia (now US Virgin Islands). - the question was finally decided in 1933 by the International Court in Haag when Norway disputed Danish sovereignty in East Greenland. Norway lost. - at the last mentioned event a decisive factor was that the Inuit population wrote letters to the court stating that they WANTED to be under Danish sovereignty completely. It was the first and only time that they made a public statement about this question. - the US was allowed a permanent military base on Greenland in 1951 because of its security during the Cold War. Just so that you know.
@bowencreer3922 They're living pretty well for those living in the city. But for those in rural areas, they are loosing their traditional way of life due to climate change because the animals they hunt for food are all going extinct so they're relying more and more on food and supplies that Denmark imports
Greenland is ranked number seven in rare earth oxide reserves worldwide (USA is ranked number eight) and this reserves are completely untapped. So I guess this also has something to do with Trumps "interest" in Greenland.
@@justin-time5880 As things are in the world, it's very invalide. Why? Well, it's called lead by example. If ur a bad example and unfriendly to allies, u'll find urself in unsafe grounds.
I think it's because China after trump's threatened tariffs etc , banned all Germanium, Gallium and Antimony exports to the US. Without this , the US electronics industry comes to a halt , it's is required for all Radar systems. Gallium prices are set to Rise 150% because of this , costing the US, $3.4 billion. There are many examples but what is the betting Greenland has these ?
The US learned to put cannons on their combat aircraft when they fought in Vietnam. The F-4 "Thud" carried no obsolete guns, in favor of modern missiles, but was later fitted with a cannon on a pod. We learned that cannon are a basic requirement for combat aircraft. This knowledge was earned the hard way. Love what you do, and you are looking great! Keep taking care of yourself, we love you. Slava Ukraine!
@@zodiacdriver3852 F-4 Phantom, actually, and that bird was nicknamed a lot of things, few of them nice (although it was a great aircraft). I laughed out loud during one of the totally absurd scenes in one of the Sharknado movies where an F-4 shoots down sharks with it's nose-mounted gun. It didn't have one. Later on they developed a gun that could mount on a bomb or missile rack, but that was really about it. The F-105 Thunderchief, aka "Thud", did indeed have a 20mm gatling gun.
@@scottwyatt2614 After the gun pods didn't really solve the air-air problem of the then unreliable missiles, the Navy pilots demanded a real sure-thing-killer with their F-4s, and USAF brass finally joined in - so the E-models were redesigned to house the M-61 Vulcan in their noses - guess what? A/A kill ratio of the Rhinos went up from around 10% to above 30% just because of the gun... hard learnt lesson though...

I, along with 4 sisters, visited Tallinn during February 18 years ago. We had never seen the depth of snow before covering the landscape. An amazing scene was looking at the frozen Baltic Sea. We had a great time. It's a truly beautiful city. We took a trip to the Estonian/Russian border also. One of the highlights of our trip was hearing Arvo Part conduct the orchestra playing his own compositions.We couldn't fly direct from Ireland at that time. We travelled through Frankfurt. There is no doubt you will enjoy your holiday there.

Artur. Yo escuché toda la entrevista que le hizo ese periodista a Zelenskyi. Preguntas muy tontas y poco inteligentes, haber tenido esa oportunidad profesional como periodista y haberla desperdiciado de esa forma me parece inconcebible, duró mucho tiempo quejándose de no haber podido hablar en ruso. Por el contrario Zelenskyi me pereció un tipo inteligente y sagaz. Yo Quedé tranquilo sabiendo que el pueblo ucraniano tiene un presidente muy hábil e inteligente.
Tal vez soy algo simplista en este caso, pero para mí, un presidente que en vez de huir dice "necesito municiones y no un vuelo" cuando su país se ve invadido ya las ha ganado todas. Además me gusta mucho el detalle que vaya siempre vestido con ropas militares en solidaridad con el ejército, sin adornarse con ridículas medallas y rangos inmerecidos. Sí encima deja su cargo después de la guerra como ha anunciado, entrará en los libros de historia como uno de los grandes líderes.
Hey artur, love all your podcasts, watched videos ,didn't understand dog and babushka in car ,but loved ethnic dances and music! I am from Pittsburgh, mother from Poland ,bialastock and she just left us at 98! Slava Estonia and ukrainia!
You did a good job of showing Lex Fridman for what he really is. Gatling Gun is now used for a multi-barrel gun with either rotating barrel cluster that gives a high rate of fire. It is named after the 19th Century Gatling Gun, one of the early machine guns.
His real name is Alexei Fedotov, Russian agent tasked with making friends with Joseph Rogan over a 10 year period before Putin's invasion was set to launch
All US fighters and multiple role aircraft retain guns. During Viet Nam, the F-4 Phantom was introduced, with no gun. Thinking was that the era of "dog fighting" was over: missiles and unguided rockets would now rule the sky and battlefield. That thinking was rapidly proven false. Within about 2 years a "gun pod" was slung under the belly of F-4s carrying both the gun and ammunition. It wasn't used often, but it did take out a few surface to air radar sites, and more than a few migs after the missiles had run dry. There will always be a place for the humble gun and/or cannon.
The F-4 needed a gun but the F-8 Crusader made only four kills with the 20mm cannon. The Ault Report fixed the issues of the F-4, the Phantom guys needed ACM/DACT, the maintenance and Aviation Ordnance folks needed to be trained properly and the Air Operations guys needed to know how to get Phantoms into an advantage before the MiG-17s and MiG-21s got close to the Strike Packages. The US Navy racked up impressive kill to loss ratios even with F-4Bs and F-4Js without guns. The 20mm gun didn't get to USN/USMC F-4s until the F-4N. The main weapon for the F-8D/E was the AIM-9.
Seems like a case of drawing the wrong lesson from an isolated vacuum, there hasn't been an air-to-air gun kill in what, 30 years now? Technology moved forward. Don't get me wrong I love toys and I don't particularly care either way.
@Ofasia777 You are correct. Barring kills on drones, I think the last gun kill may have been an F-16 against an O/V-10 over Venezuela years ago during an attempted coup. I believe the IAF had Eagle and Viper gun kills back over the Bekaa Valley.
Thanks for the example of Estonian folk music Artur, very entertaining. Its this sort of thing that makes your channel such a delight to watch, along with insightful commentary, a balanced knowledgeable view point, and an injection of humour (wa wah we wu, velly nice).
F16 can carry sidewinders on position 1 2 3 7 8 and 9, so up to 6 missiles Usual load out is two sidewinders and two amraams and self defense pods as well as external fuel tank.
The USAF learned that lesson in the 60s already. When the F4 and F105 were designed the future was long range missile combat. But your missiles have to be good enough to hit stuff. The Israeli Air Force never went away from guns because of their requirement for visual confirmation. The IAF was involved in a lot of wild air combat involving lots of planes in the air over small spaces, so that's understandable.
As an European, I stand with Greenland and Ukraine. Russia and the US should first focus on the well-being of their citizens before focusing on other countries
It's always about natural resources. That's why Russia invaded Ukraine. Seriously though, I'm pretty sure that Trump is just trolling Denmark over Greenland, like he's trolling Mexico and Canada.
I hope you had a good vacation brother. You deserve a time of rest of the mind. I have huge respect for you. I wish I had the capability of visiting Estonia 🇪🇪 out of respect for you.

"For some reason Brazilian engineers are decoding them" That is for the simple reason that the plane was made in Brazil by a Brazilian company (Embraer). These black boxes are usually decoded by the company who made the plane, because they know how they are constructed and have the tools to decode them. Usually they do it while under close scrutiny by the relevant authorities.
The M61 cannon on the F16 shoots 6000 rpm of 20mm projectiles that can be exploding munitions among others. The exploding ammo allows the round to hit the plane with fragments thus eliminating the need to actually hit it directly. I would assume that is what they used to shoot the last 2 cruse missiles down.
11:37 Technically, the F-16’s can shoot up 6 air to air missiles. Depending on the load-out. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Dynamics_F-16_Fighting_Falcon#:~:text=Armament,-A%20Portuguese%20Air&text=Early%20F%2D16s%20could%20be,AAMs%20in%20a%20weapons%20mix.
Listen up everyone. I’m really tired of reading comments from people who have no clue about the relationship between Denmark and Greenland. Both countries are part of the Kingdom of Denmark (along with the Faroe Islands), and we have one of the best societies in the world, where we support each other through social benefits funded by the taxes we pay. Denmark alone supports Greenland with 5.1 billion Danish kroner every year to ensure the welfare of its population of just 55,000. If they don’t appreciate our friendship and help, maybe they’ll love the way the U.S. treats other minorities. The U.S. only sees Greenland as a greedy exploitation opportunity, and if Greenlanders break away and say yes to American societal development, their ice will melt faster than their beautiful island will drown. I do acknowledge the need for greater American military presence in Greenland due to the geopolitic situation, but it should take place through democratic negotiations and not this sh*tstorm.
something tells me danish-greenlandish relations are already on the brink of collapse if you consider they are ungrateful and actually will cut ties and sell themselves to america.
Greenland is managed by a small elite from a few families and some are grifters got the impression that maybe Trump could make them rich and famous. It seems today that they got overwhelmed by all the trouble they have created for Greenland and Denmark. Greenland is actually occupied by the US with the consent of Denmark and Greenland.
My sister in law is Danish. I’m a Brit and I understand completely. Trump needs to shut tf up. Why ruin Greenland ? Can you imagine what trump would do to the beautiful country ? Makes my blood boil. We stand united with ALL our allies. Don’t let trump sow any more division in Europe. He’s a wrecking ball. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦✊
The latest AN-APG radar also controls aiming for the GAU canon (battling gun) under active control by the pilot. Once it has tracking lock, the pilot has to stay exactly on speed and course long enough to fire perhaps 6-700 rounds in the predicted target track. And bada bing...bada....you know
@@philippehuysmans3159 Thank you for the moment of laughter your reply afforded me and my cousin in an otherwise difficult day. She reminded me (and having served 20 years in the Navy, she should know) that the current version of the F-16 fighting Falcon still in production has had a series of major upgrades including the air frame, engines, armaments, avionics and, most importantly, the radar/targeting control system.The AN APG 83 is only 4 years old and can track, target and guide Air to Air missiles on up to 4 targets simultaneously. Many other changes including a recent generation of pilots. I will have to remind my cousin not to laugh quite so much at the ignorance of others. God bless America!
Why would anyone but Brazilian engineers be decoding the black boxes? It's pretty normal for the plane company to handle the blackbox and presumably most of their engineers are Brazilian.

The F16 punches way above its weight and size. The most experienced air force in the world recognized the abilities of the F16 immediately and wanted to be first on the foreign sales list. That'd be the Israeli Air Force in the 70s.
the north Korean guns fire ordinary ammo a much shorter distance, the 60 kilometre range is for rocket assisted rounds. which are all finest north Korean engineering and therefore always reach the target.

It taks away the curtain and shows how a real location shoot is run. Great job Artur. I truly hop you are successful with this video. Love from UK supporters of your channel.
Another thing to note about the F-16, cruise missile gun kill. Is that while firing it's gun, the F-16 cockpit shakes due to the force of firing the gun and it's position. Simply put everything inside the F-16 is optimized to be as small and lightweight as possible.

If that marine drone does have self-righting capability, it can probably run un rough seas, but will likely have reduced distance capability if running upswell.
If Russia has a friendly country fighting with boots on ground and equipment, why can't Ukraine have a boots on ground equipment packing friend also???
Because, au contraire to Putin’s claim that NATO is a threat to Russia, it is actually a big scaredy cat. One day after a missile hit Poland killing 2 people, Biden announced the investigation would take 4 weeks but was unlikely to be a Russian missile (which would trigger a NATO response 😀 so definitely not a Russian missile). The Ukrainians were loud in their assertion it wasn’t Ukrainian air defence…look we have the data to prove it and it’s too big a hole to be caused by air defence. And the internet was alive with people pointing out that the coordinates of the Polish location were the latitude of a location in Kyiv and the longitude of a location in Lviv. Russian incompetence? Never got consideration from NATO. Even the Polish leader looked relieved.
Western military strategy is smarter than Russian brute force. Western people are free and safe and less likely to approve of sending their own troops to a foreign war. Western military helps Ukraine so far in ways that don't alarm the public... Also Russia bullies North Korea into helping because its smaller and desperate for cash. Ukraine asks politely for help from genuine allies. The diplomacy is different.

@@jeffmaxwell7391 Ukraine is a European ally. Those wars in the middle East were about world dominance but Ukraine is actually part of the Western democratic world. Its way more important. Furthermore Russia capturing Ukraine and using all of Ukraine's resources against Western countries makes things worse for the West. All those middle eastern wars had NATO troops sent, but Ukraine is using only their own soldiers. Its a good investment against our main enemy. The entire reason NATO was created in the first place was to counter Russia taking over the world after WW2. Russia cuts our internet cables under the ocean, makes hundreds of anti-Western pro-woke videos that corrupt kids on our social media and Russian agents actually burn buildings down or destroy things in North America more often than our you would believe. 10% of Putin's military budget is actually not even military its just paid out to agents and proxy agents just to undermine the entire concept of Western democracy. this started in Soviet times and is nothing new, its just getting way worse now.

@@jchikes247 You're not helping us out, you are sending millions of refugees our way by starting wars in Irak, Afghanistan, destabilizing entire regions just to leave before pacifying the area.

*This video is a rollercoaster of insights! From kamikaze drone innovations to the jaw-dropping F-16 sniper shot story, it's a masterclass in modern warfare strategy. The detailed analysis of Russian losses and Ukrainian resilience left me in awe. Can we talk about how those drones are redefining combat tactics?*
Greenland is basically already protected by the US already and this has been the case for a long time. The real problem, as it is with the Panama Canal, is that China and Russia are exploiting it in order to threaten shipping to and from the US. What would Denmark rather do, sell Greenland to the US or lose it to China and or Russia through military means?

Some Americans might think its a good thing, but they will find out to their suprise that they are as reliant on the rest of the world, as we are on them, for trade, stability, order, and prosperity.
It's because Trump wants favorable rates for a new gas pipeline.
He starts negotiations from the most extreme end, and works back from there.
I don't think it's a good strategy, but it's not new at all
@@isawaakumait works every time. Lol
Sorry to say, but past Danish efforts as a US ally means absolutely nothing to the Americans going forward
I agree with some of the things you have written. However I think there is a plan from China to attack USA soon. As per the letter written by the green beret to Shawn Ryan. You should look into this. Also America has paid for the defence of Europe for quite some time, that’s why they may feel entitled to this land to ensure their security since its an easy way to station munitions to hit America, either by Russia or China. I don’t believe trump actually wants to do this but is more of a ploy to get NATO to up its spend and comply. Being honest if NATO and the US separate it’s bad for everyone in Europe. China will not spare Europe.
There is a feeling that NATO are the morally superior force, but after Iraq and Afghan, I don’t think NATO are to be trusted anyway. Far too many bureaucrats, corporate interests and corrupt war mongers trying to justify their existence. Personally I think NATO, the EU and everything in between should be disbanded and new alliances formed, preferably with America.
If it is true about US and China possessing alien technology, which is increasingly likely, we are all doomed.
A detail here: greenland isn't denmark, it's an autonomous region who hasn't achieved independance due to financial reasons and not due to any aligience to denmark.
Thanks!
Thank you for your regular updates on the war.
A little background information about Denmark, Greenland and the US:
- Denmark and Greenland has been together since 1814 (actually since the 13th Century)
- the US recognized FULL DANISH SOVEREIGNTY over Greenland in 1917 in connection with the purchase of Danish Westindia (now US Virgin Islands).
- the question was finally decided in 1933 by the International Court in Haag when Norway disputed Danish sovereignty in East Greenland. Norway lost.
- at the last mentioned event a decisive factor was that the Inuit population wrote letters to the court stating that they WANTED to be under Danish sovereignty completely. It was the first and only time that they made a public statement about this question.
- the US was allowed a permanent military base on Greenland in 1951 because of its security during the Cold War.
Just so that you know.
Exactly. 1933. It’s almost a century later. How well is the small population in Greenland doing under danish control?
Trump dose not want the land per-say for bases, he wants the resources like natural gas that is in the area...
Yup and if Denmark leaves it, Trump will leave NATO
@bowencreer3922 They're living pretty well for those living in the city. But for those in rural areas, they are loosing their traditional way of life due to climate change because the animals they hunt for food are all going extinct so they're relying more and more on food and supplies that Denmark imports
Happy Hump Day Brother .

Greenland is ranked number seven in rare earth oxide reserves worldwide (USA is ranked number eight) and this reserves are completely untapped. So I guess this also has something to do with Trumps "interest" in Greenland.
What other reason would be there? It's always about resources, politicians/ rullers don't care about people.
It's a valid interest.
@@justin-time5880 As things are in the world, it's very invalide. Why? Well, it's called lead by example. If ur a bad example and unfriendly to allies, u'll find urself in unsafe grounds.
Elon Musk is behind this period.
I think it's because China after trump's threatened tariffs etc , banned all Germanium, Gallium and Antimony exports to the US.
Without this , the US electronics industry comes to a halt , it's is required for all Radar systems. Gallium prices are set to Rise 150% because of this , costing the US, $3.4 billion.
There are many examples but what is the betting Greenland has these ?
The most concise explanation for why the F-16 has a Gatling gun, is F-4 Phantoms in Vietnam.
And the F-105 Thunderchief AKA "The THUD".
The US learned to put cannons on their combat aircraft when they fought in Vietnam. The F-4 "Thud" carried no obsolete guns, in favor of modern missiles, but was later fitted with a cannon on a pod. We learned that cannon are a basic requirement for combat aircraft. This knowledge was earned the hard way. Love what you do, and you are looking great! Keep taking care of yourself, we love you. Slava Ukraine!
The F-4 was the 'Big Ugly', sometimes also called 'Rhino', whereas the F-105 was the 'Thud'...
@@zodiacdriver3852 F-4 Phantom, actually, and that bird was nicknamed a lot of things, few of them nice (although it was a great aircraft). I laughed out loud during one of the totally absurd scenes in one of the Sharknado movies where an F-4 shoots down sharks with it's nose-mounted gun. It didn't have one. Later on they developed a gun that could mount on a bomb or missile rack, but that was really about it. The F-105 Thunderchief, aka "Thud", did indeed have a 20mm gatling gun.
@@scottwyatt2614 After the gun pods didn't really solve the air-air problem of the then unreliable missiles, the Navy pilots demanded a real sure-thing-killer with their F-4s, and USAF brass finally joined in - so the E-models were redesigned to house the M-61 Vulcan in their noses - guess what? A/A kill ratio of the Rhinos went up from around 10% to above 30% just because of the gun... hard learnt lesson though...
Coming up to a million men! This is absolute madness.

Just booked a trip to Tallinn in June for my summer vacation!!!!
Enjoy! The Baltic countries have become nice after they became free from russia. They are almost as beautiful as the Scandinavian countries or parts of other Western European countries, plus the Baltic countries are much cheaper 🙂
I, along with 4 sisters, visited Tallinn during February 18 years ago. We had never seen the depth of snow before covering the landscape. An amazing scene was looking at the frozen Baltic Sea. We had a great time. It's a truly beautiful city. We took a trip to the Estonian/Russian border also. One of the highlights of our trip was hearing Arvo Part conduct the orchestra playing his own compositions.We couldn't fly direct from Ireland at that time. We travelled through Frankfurt. There is no doubt you will enjoy your holiday there.
@@marykilgarriff2337 thanks for sharing! Sounds amazing! I'm from Canada so there's no shortage of snow and ice scenery to be seen here! Lol

Don't blame you. Our healthcare access is atrocious. Medical bills account for 40% of US bankruptcies.

Я щаслива з тобою, Артуре. Ти Справжній Друг.. 😊
Artur. Yo escuché toda la entrevista que le hizo ese periodista a Zelenskyi. Preguntas muy tontas y poco inteligentes, haber tenido esa oportunidad profesional como periodista y haberla desperdiciado de esa forma me parece inconcebible, duró mucho tiempo quejándose de no haber podido hablar en ruso. Por el contrario Zelenskyi me pereció un tipo inteligente y sagaz. Yo Quedé tranquilo sabiendo que el pueblo ucraniano tiene un presidente muy hábil e inteligente.
Tal vez soy algo simplista en este caso, pero para mí, un presidente que en vez de huir dice "necesito municiones y no un vuelo" cuando su país se ve invadido ya las ha ganado todas. Además me gusta mucho el detalle que vaya siempre vestido con ropas militares en solidaridad con el ejército, sin adornarse con ridículas medallas y rangos inmerecidos. Sí encima deja su cargo después de la guerra como ha anunciado, entrará en los libros de historia como uno de los grandes líderes.

You did a good job of showing Lex Fridman for what he really is. Gatling Gun is now used for a multi-barrel gun with either rotating barrel cluster that gives a high rate of fire. It is named after the 19th Century Gatling Gun, one of the early machine guns.
His real name is Alexei Fedotov, Russian agent tasked with making friends with Joseph Rogan over a 10 year period before Putin's invasion was set to launch
All US fighters and multiple role aircraft retain guns. During Viet Nam, the F-4 Phantom was introduced, with no gun. Thinking was that the era of "dog fighting" was over: missiles and unguided rockets would now rule the sky and battlefield. That thinking was rapidly proven false. Within about 2 years a "gun pod" was slung under the belly of F-4s carrying both the gun and ammunition. It wasn't used often, but it did take out a few surface to air radar sites, and more than a few migs after the missiles had run dry. There will always be a place for the humble gun and/or cannon.
The F-4 needed a gun but the F-8 Crusader made only four kills with the 20mm cannon. The Ault Report fixed the issues of the F-4, the Phantom guys needed ACM/DACT, the maintenance and Aviation Ordnance folks needed to be trained properly and the Air Operations guys needed to know how to get Phantoms into an advantage before the MiG-17s and MiG-21s got close to the Strike Packages. The US Navy racked up impressive kill to loss ratios even with F-4Bs and F-4Js without guns. The 20mm gun didn't get to USN/USMC F-4s until the F-4N. The main weapon for the F-8D/E was the AIM-9.
Seems like a case of drawing the wrong lesson from an isolated vacuum, there hasn't been an air-to-air gun kill in what, 30 years now? Technology moved forward. Don't get me wrong I love toys and I don't particularly care either way.
@Ofasia777 You are correct. Barring kills on drones, I think the last gun kill may have been an F-16 against an O/V-10 over Venezuela years ago during an attempted coup. I believe the IAF had Eagle and Viper gun kills back over the Bekaa Valley.
Thanks for the example of Estonian folk music Artur, very entertaining.
Its this sort of thing that makes your channel such a delight to watch, along with insightful commentary, a balanced knowledgeable view point, and an injection of humour (wa wah we wu, velly nice).
F16 can carry sidewinders on position 1 2 3 7 8 and 9, so up to 6 missiles
Usual load out is two sidewinders and two amraams and self defense pods as well as external fuel tank.

Personality shines through for this host. Knowledge ,filtered through experience, shines as well.
In the 1970s the US learned the hard way not to field planes without guns.
Was that the F4 phantom?
The USAF learned that lesson in the 60s already. When the F4 and F105 were designed the future was long range missile combat. But your missiles have to be good enough to hit stuff. The Israeli Air Force never went away from guns because of their requirement for visual confirmation. The IAF was involved in a lot of wild air combat involving lots of planes in the air over small spaces, so that's understandable.
@@LuvBorderCollies I summed up 70s because it happened in the US Vietnam era, 68 to 75 as I understand?

It's always about natural resources. That's why Russia invaded Ukraine. Seriously though, I'm pretty sure that Trump is just trolling Denmark over Greenland, like he's trolling Mexico and Canada.

"For some reason Brazilian engineers are decoding them"
That is for the simple reason that the plane was made in Brazil by a Brazilian company (Embraer).
These black boxes are usually decoded by the company who made the plane, because they know how they are constructed and have the tools to decode them. Usually they do it while under close scrutiny by the relevant authorities.
The question by Greenland should be "How much?" They can always say " not enough "
The M61 cannon on the F16 shoots 6000 rpm of 20mm projectiles that can be exploding munitions among others. The exploding ammo allows the round to hit the plane with fragments thus eliminating the need to actually hit it directly. I would assume that is what they used to shoot the last 2 cruse missiles down.
Amazing video and song from a fellow Estonian in the USA!
I loved it when you said “Happy Hump Day!”
I still love your reporting, just saying I miss that. :)
11:37 Technically, the F-16’s can shoot up 6 air to air missiles. Depending on the load-out.

Listen up everyone. I’m really tired of reading comments from people who have no clue about the relationship between Denmark and Greenland. Both countries are part of the Kingdom of Denmark (along with the Faroe Islands), and we have one of the best societies in the world, where we support each other through social benefits funded by the taxes we pay. Denmark alone supports Greenland with 5.1 billion Danish kroner every year to ensure the welfare of its population of just 55,000. If they don’t appreciate our friendship and help, maybe they’ll love the way the U.S. treats other minorities. The U.S. only sees Greenland as a greedy exploitation opportunity, and if Greenlanders break away and say yes to American societal development, their ice will melt faster than their beautiful island will drown. I do acknowledge the need for greater American military presence in Greenland due to the geopolitic situation, but it should take place through democratic negotiations and not this sh*tstorm.
something tells me danish-greenlandish relations are already on the brink of collapse if you consider they are ungrateful and actually will cut ties and sell themselves to america.
Greenland is managed by a small elite from a few families and some are grifters got the impression that maybe Trump could make them rich and famous. It seems today that they got overwhelmed by all the trouble they have created for Greenland and Denmark. Greenland is actually occupied by the US with the consent of Denmark and Greenland.
My sister in law is Danish. I’m a Brit and I understand completely. Trump needs to shut tf up. Why ruin Greenland ? Can you imagine what trump would do to the beautiful country ? Makes my blood boil.

In Greenland there is the US Thule Air Force base with 140 soldiers mainly USAF. Occasionally even more.
The latest AN-APG radar also controls aiming for the GAU canon (battling gun) under active control by the pilot. Once it has tracking lock, the pilot has to stay exactly on speed and course long enough to fire perhaps 6-700 rounds in the predicted target track. And bada bing...bada....you know
Bada what? The poor guy in the F16 stand no chance against a recent fighter. Stop draming, that shit was build in 1974!
@@philippehuysmans3159 Thank you for the moment of laughter your reply afforded me and my cousin in an otherwise difficult day.

Many other changes including a recent generation of pilots. I will have to remind my cousin not to laugh quite so much at the ignorance of others. God bless America!

Why would anyone but Brazilian engineers be decoding the black boxes? It's pretty normal for the plane company to handle the blackbox and presumably most of their engineers are Brazilian.

Another thing to note about the F-16, cruise missile gun kill.
Is that while firing it's gun, the F-16 cockpit shakes due to the force of firing the gun and it's position.
Simply put everything inside the F-16 is optimized to be as small and lightweight as possible.
Including the ammo for the canon wich is rendered practically useless.

If Russia has a friendly country fighting with boots on ground and equipment, why can't Ukraine have a boots on ground equipment packing friend also???
Because, au contraire to Putin’s claim that NATO is a threat to Russia, it is actually a big scaredy cat. One day after a missile hit Poland killing 2 people, Biden announced the investigation would take 4 weeks but was unlikely to be a Russian missile (which would trigger a NATO response 😀 so definitely not a Russian missile). The Ukrainians were loud in their assertion it wasn’t Ukrainian air defence…look we have the data to prove it and it’s too big a hole to be caused by air defence. And the internet was alive with people pointing out that the coordinates of the Polish location were the latitude of a location in Kyiv and the longitude of a location in Lviv. Russian incompetence? Never got consideration from NATO. Even the Polish leader looked relieved.
Who? France? Didn’t Macron just Flip Flop again?
Western military strategy is smarter than Russian brute force. Western people are free and safe and less likely to approve of sending their own troops to a foreign war. Western military helps Ukraine so far in ways that don't alarm the public... Also Russia bullies North Korea into helping because its smaller and desperate for cash. Ukraine asks politely for help from genuine allies. The diplomacy is different.

Furthermore Russia capturing Ukraine and using all of Ukraine's resources against Western countries makes things worse for the West. All those middle eastern wars had NATO troops sent, but Ukraine is using only their own soldiers. Its a good investment against our main enemy. The entire reason NATO was created in the first place was to counter Russia taking over the world after WW2. Russia cuts our internet cables under the ocean, makes hundreds of anti-Western pro-woke videos that corrupt kids on our social media and Russian agents actually burn buildings down or destroy things in North America more often than our you would believe. 10% of Putin's military budget is actually not even military its just paid out to agents and proxy agents just to undermine the entire concept of Western democracy. this started in Soviet times and is nothing new, its just getting way worse now.

This video is nonsense tho.
Greenland is basically already protected by the US already and this has been the case for a long time. The real problem, as it is with the Panama Canal, is that China and Russia are exploiting it in order to threaten shipping to and from the US. What would Denmark rather do, sell Greenland to the US or lose it to China and or Russia through military means?
