A Hawker Hunter really is a thing of beauty. Those lines...

Douglas A-4M Skyhawk IIs also saw service during Desert Storm, flying from roads as part of the Free Kuwait Air Force.
Edit: they were based an early-model Ms, and were re-designated as A-4KUs (they lacked the AN/ASB-19 ARBs and IFF transponder at the tip of the tailfin).
They were later sold to Brazil, and re-designated as AF-1s.

They definitely did, they downed a few helis, I made a video on the A-4KUs a while ago

A hunter with Aim-9P's and flares, gaijin when? But the real question is, how many flares came in those pods?

[@IrisAviation91]

30 tubes per an/ale40 mount - same tyoe used on the phantom, and the hunter carried 2x, so 60 flares

[@PhantomMark]

Both those airframes would still be relevant today with an avionics uplift, same with the Bucc , I still think the Hunter is among the prettiest of all the aircraft of that era.

Love the fact that you used DCS F-14's soundtrack The Lion and the Sun. It is perfect for the setting conflict in the middle east.

[@IrisAviation91]

I agree Lion and the Sun really helps set the atmosphere of the Gulf :)
