I think Cesar was the pilot involved when a US army unit examined the wreckage of a shot down Iraqi jet. They recovered hard drives of the jet, and one of the frames recovered from the HUD recorder contained a single frame of a Sidewinder about to come through the screen He had a large print made of the frame, and that image now hangs in his home office.
They didn't mention any sidewinders in this, was that another engagement? How many planes did this dude splash?
@@hernerweisenberg7052 not sure buddy, will try and find a link to the article. If I find it I’ll post it here
@@hernerweisenberg7052 Rico has 3 kills, i don't think any were heater kills. I flew with him in Kosovo when he got a 120 kill.
I just remember him in a dog fight near former Yugoslavia in which he nearly hit the ground and the Mig 29 pilot did.
@@hernerweisenberg7052 I believe it's an AIM-7 in the photo.
Those of us who fly R/C planes always know this: Trees and the ground always wins.
I was deployed to Cervia AB, IT, for Kosovo when Lt. Colonel Rodriguez got his last kill. Those AIM-7s, as I recall, were condition code N, wartime use only. I believe one of those AIM-7s actually went straight down after launch due to a rocket motor issue. After the first few missions, I believe they switched to using only the AIM-120C. The thing that always sticks in my mind about that deployment is seeing the 493FS pilots return and pass our HAS with missiles missing from the rails.
Loved this. Keep the great content coming 🤙❤️
The F15 has always been my favorite fighter. When I was a kid it was my dream to be able to fly one, unfortunately things didn’t work that way. Still love that jet to this day.
That's why they are upgrading f15ex cus nothing is better
Great video Ryan!
Thanks Ryan, I definitely enjoyed the video 💯
Loved this analysis. Especially when it comes from real world scenario. As glamorous as it looks combat aviation proves time & again that split second decisions are the key factors which make or break the situation
In the 90s I was an Airman stationed at Dugway Proving Grounds in Utah. We were working on B52 and B1 bomber training. Anyway, one day we had a F-15 do a low-level fly by over our radar installation. It was super cool!
can a F15 C beat a Russian SU 27 or SU 30 in a dog fight? what are your thoughts?
Very good video great content 👍 F-15...what a timeless lethal aircraft, glad our guys came out on top in that one. I can't imagine knowing another guy has a lock on you...wow has to be intense. Much respect from a low hr C150 guy here, you guys kick ass.
Great video! I love these!
Great insights .. appreciate the respect to fellow pilots
I love the video. Thank you for doing these reaction videos!
Personally, I prefer using "joust" to describe one-circle geometry, and "chase" for two-circle. But I agree that "joust" has a more epic connotation.
Will you react to the F-16 that avoids 7 SAM missiles without flares?
Nice narration
Fun to watch neo
I dig your vids bro. There’s one the history channel did on a dogfight between an F-15 vs a Mig-25. Would be cool to see you’re reaction/ break down on that one.
MIG-25 vas not fighter but interceptor - much faster than F-15 , but not made for a dogfights.
Please do more of These! Theres quite a few interviews of F-4 drivers out there. Maybe do one in prep for the DCS Heatblur Phantom? Its not like it got the world's only supersonic gun kill or anything....lol. I also really can't wait for you to help us along with the F-15E. Pins and needles my friend.
F-15 dogfights!!!!, What a great birthday gift
Thank you Ryan ❤.
Happy birthday 🎉🎁🎈
@@craigbringman7967 Thanks Craig
More of these please 🙏
Love the Energy! Vidz are cool too!
Where you still a thunderbird 2014-16 in AK?
Good vid Ryan. I was lucky enough to be assigned to the 493rd back in 1998/1999 time frame as a green little 2nd/1st LT and it was awesome because I got to learn from Rico, Claw and Dozer and many of the other guys there in the squadron at that time. Right before we were shipped off to Cervia flying 12 hour stealth escort and cap missions over Kosovo in the middle of the night. But yeah, I learned from the best very early on and it helped me get real good real fast. :)
New subscriber. Loved it Bruh...
Born in Oklahoma in 1989, Dad fought in Vietnam my Grandmothers brother, (My Great Uncle and hero) was killed at Iwo Jima, my Grandfather fought for the 45th ID (Thunderbirds) landed in Italy and fought until injured, then cycled back into service, was there when they Liberated Dachau. His brother were both in the USN, One a SeeBee, the other the Boxing Champion on His Ship.
Was a Shithead in High School, Walked at Graduation but never got a Diploma. Got my GED. Then my Girlffirend broke up with me in the Summer of 2008 and I thought my life was over. So I decided to join the US Army as a 19D, Basic at Fort Leonard Wood, did two Deployments. (I sure showed her huh)?
In 2012 I applied and had the good fortune to be accepted into the WOFT (Warrrant Officer Flight Training) Program at Fort Rucker, AL. Was selected to fly the (Unbelievably Underrated and overlooked) OH-58 Kiowa from then until the Army retired my horse a couple years back. Am now flying the AH-64 Apache and will hang up my Spurs someday.
However, since as early as I can remember, I've been drawing pictures, Building models, putting posters of what has been my favorite jet since as early as I can remember is the MIG-29. I'm as American as you can get, and love my Country and there are some US Jets that come close but for some reason, and I'll never know how/why I even saw a MIG-29, but its with me forever.

Thanks Unc; Love Ya and can't wait to meet you on my day.
It may not be as much of a crowd pleaser as the fighter-jets, but I'd be very interested to see you teach us some things about flying in general, which you could do with MSFS or X-Plane, if you'd be interested. Such as, what do you do if your engines fail while you're flying a plane? How do you land a plane? How do you use a sextant? What is the proper way to deploy one of those parachutes they put on some small civilian aircraft, and what do you think of the idea of maybe having a parachute for the F-35? I hear the ejection seats can be hard on the neck... I mean, I know that you would probably want to use the ejection seat in combat, if you were shot down, because they'd probably just shoot you again if your jet had a parachute, but in training, for example, or on routine air patrols, especially at sea (but also in forests), that might be kind of nice. Apparently the plane helps break the fall, and it often has a lot of useful stuff in it... But perhaps it wouldn't work on a military jet, for some reason? Too heavy? Too unstable when not under power, something like that? Or can you glide them down until you get low and slow enough? I hear this may be harder to do on some of the newer aircraft, like the F-22, which apparently cannot fly without its computer, so I hear. (If it is possible, it could conceivably also be possible to deploy a flotation device from beneath the jet, on the Marine and the Navy versions, if landing at sea with the parachute, and an extra flotation device for the pilot too, just in case - I mean, given how much it costs, I would think it wouldn't be too much to ask them to add a few externally-deployed parachutes and a large piece of inflatable rubber with its own hot air supply to be deployed from somewhere between the landing gear... we have the technology!). Just imagine if we could recover many of the jets that might have sunk into the ocean after a pilot has to eject at sea. If the Jet could also be kept afloat, I suspect the pilot would be vastly easier to find, since the Jet could transmit a distress beacon on its own radio. What about in civilian aircraft? Do you think they are a good idea? I hear they've saved a lot of lives, and the inventor was even inducted into the Minnesota Aviation Hall of Fame, if I recall (or maybe it was Wisconsin?).
You got it! Maybe will work this into content with the simulator
@@MaxAfterburnerusa Not for nothing but DCS is going to release a full fidelity f-15E through their developer Razbam. I was wondering if you'd heard about it!
If you make it so the F-35 could land safely with a parachute, you might as well fly an intact one onto an enemy airfield and give it to them. You're just asking to have all of your stuff captured and reverse engineered the moment one of your F-35s inevitably gets shot down over an enemy controlled area.
@@jonathanpfeffer3716 So you think it would be better for it to sink to the bottom of the ocean, than for it to be recovered? That's around $100 million, depending on the model. I mentioned that you probably would not want to use a parachute in combat (for the airplane, I mean). I believe there are laws against trying to recover someone else's equipment in peacetime. If forces from another country tried to recover an F-35 on my watch, it would be easy enough to sink it. You could build an emergency auto-sink feature into the flotation device which would inflate beneath the plane while the parachutes gently lower it onto the water...
On land, we are not going to be flying over enemy territory in peacetime. The plane would land on friendly territory, and no one but US personnel would dare touch it without permission.
In war time, letting it crash is not good enough. Every sensitive feature, every sensor or computer, must all have an emergency auto-destruct mechanism, to prevent it from falling into enemy hands. If every sensitive component does not have one of these, I guess we'll have to take the plane apart and start installing them... Ha ha?
The parachute idea has a fatal flaw: weight. A parachute that could safely land an F-35 or similar sized plane would be gigantic and would also have a very very limited performance envelop (in other words, it would not be effective in many common flight regimes for a combat aircraft). The weight of the parachute system would be too much for a plane trying to maximize every ounce for either fuel, weapons, or performance. You might think that it makes sense to have that type of safety system, but in the end it would make the plane that much easier to shoot down and in many instances, the act of being shot in a fight might disable the system anyway. When you consider it that way, it can be actually MORE dangerous to have such a system. Any pilot would tell you it's just better not to get shot down! Plus they do have the ejection seat capability which is a much lower weight and higher envelope safety system than a parachute system would be.
Keep up with these videos bro! React to some dogfights from LongShot too 🔥
This reminds of an unfortunate incident I read about in the Baltic Sea, in the middle of the 80s. A recce SH-37 Viggen (unarmed except with a camera pod) got harassed by two SU-15 while on mission outside Lithuania. To get the SU of his wing the Swedish pilot made a split S 500m of the ground. While the SH-37 was light and the SU had full armament and the SH pilot were very experienced spend a lot of flight hours at 30 feet the SU were mainly used as interceptor and the pilots were not as trained with advanced flying close to the ground. The SU pilot instead of letting the Viggen go, followed him
In the split S and hit the water with high alpha and vapour from his wings. Full armament didn’t help since the plane exploded in the water on impact. The SH pilot hit full burner and went supersonic westbound at 150 feet. With the pod it became shaky and was soon locked up by the second SU at around 5km. To asses he pulled the throttle back, also to be able to manoeuvre better. Luckily two armed JA-37 operated on altitude over Gotland as radio relay for the SH-37. The SH Pilot had called them about the distress and they had the SU locked up soon after. The SU backed of and except for the wingman that flew into the water everybody else could go home and fly another day. My reflection from this, it seem that not practicing enough with the real
Hard deck might cause some very costly mistakes, which flying into the ground is one of them.
Great video
Just ten miles away O.o! That is a pucker factor. I'd of been mad lol. "Your job is to tell me they're coming, not that they're already kicking my door in."
Thumbnail got MiG-35 on it
mister, you are gr8!
My brother was a WSO in an F-4
Wild azz ride !
AWACS goes like "I got you BRA"
I would love to see some of it gun camera footage from ur days flying practice fights
What I want to know about this story is how did the Mig-29 get from 10 nm away to a dogfight with the F-15? Why didn't they shoot him with an AIM-7 before then?
Politics and military intelligence is kind of a pain sometimes. There may have been a visual identifier requirement at that time to prevent blue on blue or civilian collateral damage even though the F-15C has a very good and reliable identification system on board.
Thats what you call a rocky deck transition.
Looking forward to a good listen 🙂
Thanks Carole, always good to have you here!
wish I could hit the thumbs-up more than once
Bro, you are the doctor mike of fighter planes
I sent you on instagrams some suggestions days ago
wanted to know your thoughts on the F-14 Tomcat and have you ever flown one or against one. It still gets a lot of discussion even now that its retired, sounds like a great aircraft that was replaced too early. wanted to know how it would compete against F16,F15 or F35. your thoughts?
I have not flown against one yet but I feel a DCS video coming on this!
From what I’ve watched, in the DCS world, the F14 doesn’t get dominated by the F15 in BFM. If you rate fight the F15 it evens out a bit but if you go 1 circle it appears the advantage goes slightly to the F15.
The F16 seems to be the opposite. Seems like the strategy is to get into the 1 circle and have the F16 maneuver more. Even though the F14 is a pretty decent rate fighter it’s no match for the F16 in a 2 circle unless he can’t manage his speed.
I hardly ever see the F35 in DCS . I don’t think they have it modeled very well and it seems to under perform badly so not many people fly it for BFM.
You manly see the F35 in a missile fight and conversely you mainly see the F14 in gun only fights because of missile compatibility.
The more popular DCS guys you see on UA-cam seem to use very specific ROE’s to make the fights more interesting for their subscribers and viewers so it probably doesn’t align perfectly with real world combat.
@@mjc1389 I doubt the F-35 would do well in a dogfight. It probably would do well in RL, as its very maneuverable and has those fox-2's that can aquire and shoot behind you. But for the maneuvering, it would probably be like an underpowerded flanker, one very good turn and then a sitting duck due to lower TWR then most other modern jets. So in a guns only, it would probably loose.
edit: its supposed to have those fox-2, but i think atm it still has aim-9x as far as i know.
Awesome
Hey thanks a ton!
I would like to see a discussion of plane design. Specifically, why are the vertical stabilizers on the F22 so big and those on most other planes - I'm thinking SU57 - are much smaller. I've read that the rudder isn't very effective above a certain speed, True or false? I could go on, but you get the idea. (Hopefully.)
You should watch his video on Dogfights. It’s one of my favorite episodes
GF has a gift from her cousin who was on a Thunderbirds Crew, a blue, short sleeve button up with the Thunderbirds logo on the back, as well as his Tech Sergeant stripes ...... Shineflew was his last name. Not sure if was a Crew Chief but by rank I am guessing he might have been? He stepped out of the service a few years ago.
Pops was a full pull and retired a Master Sergeant with a diamond up top of his 6 stripes. He was a Tech forever ut seemed and then he left the F-106 and went to Texas and became a First Sergeant at a DEW Line radar sit, Blaine AF Station. He was the F-106 318th Green Dragons, McChord AFB ( now JBLM) and with the 5th FIS Spitten' Kittens. Minot AFB. I was sad when we left the fighters lol!
I was born on Tyndall AFB, FLA 1960. The first 15 years of my life was all USAF.
Oh... snot locker, dad used that one.
How about some videos on "Dogfights" show
F15EE is being released in dcs waiting for your reaction video for the trailer they dropped.
Hey Max! You gotta react to ELI 21 (F-16 Wild Weasel fan film) It's incredible... You'll have a FIELD DAY with explaining it and the FX added to the film really makes it feel like what hollywood SHOULD do but wont.
Are you using a green screen background ? :D
Or do you have video filter on yourself and blurring out the background ? :D
You mentioned in a lot of video's the enemy usually is using ground based EWR but is that the case still. Russia's IL76/A50 China's KJ2000 , Netra and R77 as'well.
It is strange that both MiGs were so separated, acting alone, when the F-15s worked together.
If the enemy crashes like the second MiG, is it considered for the F-15 chasing as a victory?
Yes
The old Dogfights series covered this fight really well.
I'm kind of surprised ya don't hear about more fighter pilots becoming poker players up on retirement. It's my understanding most fighter pilots are aggressive as all get out. Good poker players usually are as well. I'd think that particular trait would come in handy.
15 E Strike Eagle is my all time favorite plane. ALl things considered and ponderated, F 15 is the best plane ever built. ITs a beast and a beauty,
if there is one thing i know when im dogfighting at all times its where the ground is. You can loose sight of your opponent and still have a chance, you loose sight of the ground and its game over.
Does the full video discuss how the 29 got the drop on them? With AWACS up it seems unrealistic that they just bumped into each other.
Whats up Ryan, love these videos man. I like that you mentioned that pilots have a lot of respect for each other and life in general. I pulled out of the fighting program for Canada out of a similar morality complex. Ironically, after stating this reason - the program wanted me more, but it wasn't meant to be. Can you make a video talking more about this? - Do fighter pilots go through any training that highlight a higher sense or morality while on missions/ or is that left to the each pilots discretion? Are things in the navy always black and white? where orders are absolute?
Also, another good topic would be a video about all the kinds of weapons and their special features that are available for the aircrafts in service today.
Thanks!
That 'respect' is... eh. I do relate them to nobility, but not in the nice way. It's where people see the air force as being 'clean' and very civilian, full of themselves, and naïve. They never get their hands dirty, seldom see death even if they're in a combat role. They kill from a distance and never have to see the end result. Soldiers, marines, SOME air force (FACs, occasionally Pararescue), SOME sailors (SEALs, some Masters at Arms, corpsmen) as well... They have to deal with the blood, guts, and grown men screaming for their mother as they gasp their final breaths. Same for naval aviators. Submariners... Kinda? We always knew the gravity of what we might have to do and that if we were ever called to fire our weapons, the world was over and we had a hand in the destruction of humanity. It's a sobering thought, and we were reminded often of the consequences of needing to launch those nukes. Still not the same as what the guys on the front lines deal with, though.
The F-117 pilot that got shot down in Serbia met the SAM team that shot him down, shook hands, even visited his canopy which is in a Serb museum. All combatants tend to have a healthy respect for both the craft, and the people when it comes to war. We know that the other guy probably isn't there by choice, he just got told where to be and what to do just like we did... orders and all.
React to “dogfight everything but only in the spitfire”
You could have gone on about how this guy was like the only guy to shoot down 3 enemy planes in the last 30 years.
Ill watch that !!!
Hey thanks for checking it out!
@@MaxAfterburnerusa You need to make content on the upcoming DCS Razbam F-15E !
Can't remember which UA-cam video it was, but I saw one that reported the Iraqi pilot of that second MiG DID manage to eject and he survived the engagement.
Imagine an intercept against a enemy fighter jet at night when all you have is your radar and the enemies exhaust plume
Don't forget the superior RWR in the F-15 and the EO tracker in the Mig. Both could decide the thing if used correctly :)
Fighter pilots truly are real-life rockstars!
Careful our egos are already too big 😆 na thanks man, glad you are here!!
@@MaxAfterburnerusa Hey Neo! Very humble response from a knight of the skies 😜 In all seriousness, It's an honor to be here and I really appreciate the work you put in to your content and I'm sure if all goes as planned, once you're settled in and your DCS set-up is squared away, you'll be upping the ante and surely you'll be taking the top-seat of this genre on UA-cam! I really look forward to watching your channel grow. You took the career path that I was not disciplined enough to go through, and aviation has always been a top interest of mine. I was disciplined enough to go through a five-year apprenticeship and became a union electrician. Many doors opened up after that where I found success and happiness and where I'm at in life now at 38 years old. I still wish that I would have followed my passion and knocked off the stupid crap I was into back then. I'm sure I'm not the only one when I say that watching your content fills a certain hole of interest in that light that you are able to fill in a way. Keep up that consistency if you're able to and live, laugh, and love as much as possible! Thank you for taking your time for the reply. I salute you good Sir and Godspeed brother!
Hey bud! Been watching your DCS breakdowns and I enjoy watching. Nice to have a real Fighter pilot veiw. U should check out a channel Grim Reapers. Super Cap sets up senario's and trys to make them as real to real as u can get with DCS. Just suggestion is all. Lol tanks for the entertainment
Damn.
1v1 could have ended differently but then again real life doesn't work that way.
To get a much more accurate and detailed account of this and every other publshed F-15 air battle, read: Eagle Engaged by Steve Davies and Doug Didley. It has exhaustive (unedited) interviews with the actual pilots who flew the Eagles in each air battle.
oh yeah, can't wait! I've always wanted to see how the real f-15 would do vs the world mig-29!
Perfect then this video is for you!
@@MaxAfterburnerusa It is indeed! Great video, loved it😀
Wile E Coyote (mig29pilot and supervillain) just might have been on that guy's business card, by the way he burrowed into the ground.
Ah yes the Mark 1 Eyeball haha
“WES” = Weapon Engagement Zone? Neil Trap? lol
Hey, HEY... I hit the like button, then stayed glued to the news ALL day, and not one F-15 scored a kill, not one! Are these kills kept to secret? Can I read about them from papers found in the truck of a green Corvette?
What an advantage the USN had with the AIM-54C vs the USAF AIM-7 at that time. Just a thought.
Maneuver kill
Hard deck truths. For scholarly research would you speak about the depressurization incident you experienced, I’m assuming a CC screwed up. (Anonymous survey).
Hey there! Thanks for checking out the vid. the Depressurization was WILD
"Clubbing baby seals" I think you could have chosen better words Ryan lol
I’ve got quite a few maneuver kills in the F15, when the ground jumps up and touches you, there is no fucks given 😂 still waiting for you in DCS, we’re gunna have a full fidelity F15 soon!
If you watched any growling sidewinder vids I think it’s evident that it’s the Indian and not the arrow, that guy can get into any jet and dominate, unless it’s the F22 raptor, he loses a lot to the raptor but otherwise he’s pretty awesome
❤❤❤❤
All that needs to be said about the F15 Eagle is 104 Victories (including Mig 29's and SU 27's) zero losses!
So do you have any insight in why the SR-71 went undefeated having 4000 rockets fired at over 30 run wile the F117 night Hawk took 1 on the chin early in its run as the sneakiest playing in our arsenal do you think that maybe Air Force doctrine allow that pilot to feel back he was invulnerable or was it just really at the end of day a lucky shot and how does the F117 get out done by a plane that was built with a slide rule and I know the Sr. 71 can carry a weapon but that's not my point if you could provide some insight on that that'd be cool...
SR-71 is somewhat faster than f1117, which is, despite the F, not a fighter at all. It also tends to fly somewhat higher :)
Also rockets are either unguided or go into space, missiles is what you shoot at planes :)
Like the movie Top Gun says alot of it comes from the pilot skills right. Had a Russian been flying the Mig. Totally different story period.
Wow i didnt knw A.I.M 7 sparrows were heatseeking i was under the impression they were semi-active radar guided🤣😂
question- Does the Strike Eagle holds itself in BFM vs an F-15C ?
It can but the C just has way more energy!
No. :) E model has a ton of pods and conformals and weapons stations hanging off it. All that stuff hinders performance more than you might think, so the C model is more nimble and quicker to gain energy even though the E models have slightly stronger engines and more granular AB stages. It takes an act of at least a lesser God, and a little fairy dust for an E model to beat a C.
Col Cesar Rodriguez would go on to shoot down a MIG-23 a few weeks later and then in 1999 he would down another MIG-29 over Serbia using and AIM-120B
At the request of the producer, "Rico" is telling the story like he was nervous, he wasn't. I'm also pretty confident he refers to himself in the third person. So it went more like this. "ohhhhhh hellllllll no. You AB-SO-LUTELY... DO NOT want Cesar on your salad but you had to squeeze the bottle and now you dumb FV€K, you're about to get the sauce. Tell momma you gonna be late." Then toggled HUD to ass whooping mode and pressed play on the cassette player strapped to his leg.
An Iraqi MiG-29 pilot had a strong claim of downing a Brit Tornado with an AAM during the opening air phase of Desert Storm, but the Brits denied it and claimed the Tornado was only shot down after Iraq spammed it with hundreds of SAMs. Because how _embarrassing...._
More embarrassing is how many Tornados they lost to US Patriot missiles friendly fire.
@@hernerweisenberg7052 One.
So did he just admit it's the pilot not the plane
It's both
why is his jawline so chiseled
It's a prerequisite for being a pilot )
So that Mig made a hard landing lol
A Mig 29 flown by the best trained pilots, an American would be a dangerous tool. Alas no one is trained as well as us. So hands down all the SUs and Migs are always at a disadvantage.
Have your ever been caught in a dogfight irl? How many times have fired actual missiles against enemy planes? Have you ever dropped bombs too? Would be great to learn about your real actions apart of Training.
Cheers!
Im definitely giving a thumbs up so an F-15 can win!! UNITED STATES AIRFORCE VETERAN
F-15 over 100 air to air kills and no losses
Why did The MiG not eject, deos the G force affect ejection
I would think diving down from the sky with full burners he was probably way to fast to survive ejection anyway.
But why wouldn’t the Mig fire when he had radar lock?
As a ground fighter I would rather see them burn in.
I'm like number 666... Hmm not sure what that supposed to mean LOL
I'm in training to become an F-16 pilot. I'm still in my first year of college and there's still a lot of intensive training. to fly a plane for the first time in my life
So not training your studying bro go guard and go to amxs learn the aircraft then go pilot in your squadron you’ll appreciate it on red balls
US laying the smack down on soviet tech
Yeah...tech that's generations apart and vastly outnumbered. Look mom, I just shot down a bf-109! Iraq wasn't a real war against a real enemy. To gain a little perspective into some real aerial combat between the two tech camps, check out India vs Pakistan conflicts. And all of a sudden US tech isn't that invincible.
@@shlug the Mig 29 is newer and made specifically as a counter to the F-15 that spanked it in this video, what are you on about?
@@suitableunit4163 which version? Or do you think that a Corvette of the 90s rides the same as a '23 model?
@@shlug that's the idea. Why play fair in war? Nobody is going to give you a juice box of you do.
Great video can i add a comment pls
What capabilities does the mig-29 have that makes it such a formidable opponent? Similarly, what abilities does the F-14 have that makes it so strong? --How does the pilot training compare between the US forces versus the foreign militaries?
