I pre-ordered the F-4 and after watching this I know I made the correct choice, I am very excited.
I think you did. Have a fun with it
I worked on F-4E's at Seymour Johnson AFB in the 1980's. All of them had the TV camera on the left wing. Miss the Double Ugly!!!!
Interesting
@@LongShotChannel It was called AN/ASX-1 electro-optical target identification system.
@buster9081 thank you, I'll look it up
I believe it's coming with the later phantom that heatblur will make eventually.
were getting the tiseo later in early access with dmas upgrade its also gonna come with the pave taq and the gbu15

2:15 -- Excellent job from Jester calling the correct callout of "Canopy down, lights out, stripes are aligned."
Now, some additional callouts from the real F-4 days (these are USAF calls...I don't know about the Navy's callouts).
- When the ABs light, the exhaust nozzles swing back to about 1/2-2/3 open, and the engine RPM drops slightly (I saw the nozzle gauges swing back, but no RPM movement). In any case, when the WSO sees the RPM swing with the AB lightoff, he calls "Two good swings."
- When the airspeed indicator needle starts moving (roughly above 30 KIAS), the WSO calls "Off the peg."
- There was no "80 knots" call.
- At 100 KIAS, the WSO calls "100 knots, go for tires". Above 100 KIAS, of you blow a tire, you're committed to taking off. Below 100 KIAS, you aborted for a blown tire.
- After liftoff, the pilot raises the gear and retracts the flaps and slats right away. The WSO will call, "3 up, in and up". That means all 3 gear are up, slats are in and the flaps are up.
BTW, F-4 takeoffs start with the stick full aft. When the nose raises, the pilot then holds that attitude and lets the jet fly off. There is no rotate speed, but we did always compute our Nosewheel Liftoff and Takeoff speeds. With the stick full aft, the nosewheel usually unstuck around 133 KIAS. Liftoff was usually around 165-170 KIAS. This was consistent between F-4Es, Fs, and Gs.
With the stick full aft doesn’t that stall the tail? I may be confusing myself as I thought this was a thing for other aircraft
Can you help me understand this? Why go nose down trim and them full aft stick?
@@briantoplessbar4685 Nobody I flew with did that: it adds drag and lengthens the T.O. roll. (former F-4E Woozo)
@@jongoldner6521 interesting. I’ve heard this full stick aft thing twice now on videos. Is it a natops thing?
@@jongoldner6521 Two tours in the 20FS Silver Lobos at Holloman teaching the Luftwaffe leutnants.
@@becauseifly3440 would you mind explaining a bit on why this was done? I’m just curious not calling anyone out
LS gets hit with AAA "That's fine. That's fine." Jester the Ejector's breathing intensifies... 👀
I appreciated the shot where the AAA was shooting through the orange trees and the trees shook in response to the muzzle blasts. That's amazing detail. 👏🏼 ❤
Yeah it is, I liked it also
Orange juice coming up.
Noticed that too. Great detail.
did you also notice the wheels still spinning when they were in the gear bay? or the camera\plane shake by the flak seconds before the airstrip bombing?
The F-4 was such a beast, but it also wasn't fuel consumption friendly. Between internal and external tanks, the Phantom could hold about 3000 gallons of fuel, roughly enough to fuel the family station wagon for 10 years. In full AB, you could burn though rather quickly, so pilots made sure to monitor their fuel gauges carefully throughout the flight.
The programmers did an amazing job with this model.
That's why there were a lot of tankers around back then - even in Vietnam, the F-4's often needed tankers to make it home (especially flying from Ubon in Thailand).
I remember a vietnam vet pilot describing the Phantom as an incredibly high performance flying BUS. 🤣
Too right! That’s why I said irl that phantom crew would have been oh o… when the Mig21 shows up. That little thing could outmaneuver the aggressor like nothing.
I am SO looking forward to Longshot and Growling Sidewinder flying F4s in the future! You guys rock!
Longshot’s videos always *look* better than other folks. So far, this is the best preview I ever seen graphically other than HB’s own vids.
Yeah he really has an eye for the cinematic
This has to be the best youtube preview video so far that I have seen on the F4 .
Thank you very much
Was hoping for a Martin-Baker Mk.H-7 demonstration.
@LongShotChannel your welcome mate. Credit where credit is due, your content is excellent 👏
One of the F-4 squadron Lt Cols way back when was a WSO who got hit by a SA-2. He said everything forward him on the aircraft just vanished. Spent a few years in Hanoi.
Lord that definitely didn't sound like a good time, I bet the Phantom had a 'unscheduled rapid disassembly' following half of the cockpit and entire nose section being obliterated
That engine while taxiing sounds like a terrifying vacuum cleaner.
Watched all YT preview vids for this Baby so far and apart from the Heatblur release Vid, this one got me the most excited for jumping into this jet next week!
That's very kind of you buddy, thank you
The camera angles while swiss cheesing that runway were almost cinematic. I felt like I was watching the opening scene in a Top Gun prequel
Took DCS long enough to get the F-4. DCS World finally graduated into a modern flightsim. F-4 was the most significant fighter of the 20th Century. How did we do without it for so long?
TRIVIA - Did YOU know that the F-4 has a Smiley Face on its tail?? To troll other fighters - "Heehee! You can't get me!!" 😃 -> 2:26
Uh, a few times Jester called the direction of the SA2's coming up for example at 7:07 after he called out 9 O'Clock, the missiles were actually at the 3 O'Clock. Well, maybe it was because you were sideways in the F4, maybe upside down slightly?
Or he was drunk
My question is, how hard was it to pry the researcher back out of the cockpit? That beast is really smooth. My bro did three years in VN. There's a reason it's his favorite jet.
9:36 and I like how your character blinks his eyes and moves his head like you do! 😃
Daaaamn, nice!
To be fair, of course it’s hard to attack runways if you line up along them. IRL low level runway attacks were performed at oblique angles to the runway heading precisely because it’d be too obvious were the attacks would be coming from otherwise.
Something about that video. You can just feel the tension in the Way the bird moves
I don't know if you've ever played it but this mission reminded me a lot of Strike Fighters 2. Just a nice little nostalgia moment.
Who thinks Razbam should let Heatblur integrate Jester into the F15E?
Who? Sorry to say but that ship has sailed away.
@@mikequigleyorruneoform7096huh? Razbam is still around but their best developers are gone. They’ll bounce back.
@@RW-zn8vy I hope so. I am fond of my AV-8B and would be sad if a major patch brakes it. Well just have to see.
"Such a smooth jet I think so" a legend ,the best bomber till today similar to a war vet who has Vietnam , naval you name it it's conquered.
MC Douglas< company> you are supreme.
Great video! The livery looks incredible. A famous American ace Duke Cunningham once said that in those days the effectiveness of Sparrow missiles was 7% and Sidewinder 45%. It’s interesting that our simulator took this into account when developing the Phantom.
Seeing the detail here is making me so excited for the Euro. I hope they decide to keep the same level of detail and quality.
great video Longshot, really enjoyed that - good cinematography too with the cameras and all
Thank you very much
Now this is how you sell the F4. Great footage, fast paced, dynamic external shots. Just great man!
Thank you so much
With all the USAF content coming in, I know I can count on you for some IAF action in Sinai :) 1973 recreations should be fun.
Those poor oranges 😂 It’d be awesome to see some videos with you as the jester too later on! The locking on process looks really tense and interesting!
It's that 4 sec count that's gonna be hard to wait...
I see I'm not the only one who saw those oranges get obliterated. Orange mist is a new flavor for that AAA crew.
Man, I really have to say that I like the way you cut between the cockpit and exterior views.
One of my favorite fighters outside of all past and present fighters. My first model i built vietnam camo colors. Did the ol oodaloo conducted by Olds. Now you fly that thing right without taking damage, or you dont fly it at all. THAT'S AN ORDER! 🤣
That is the appropriate paint job for an F-4 Phantom sir. Especially when you do a mission like that. 🤙

My recollection from reading old stories about the F-4 is that you'd release brakes before lighting the AB. Otherwise you'd risk skidding the tires across the runway, or possibly even having the tires rotate around the wheel rims.
Rocket's correct. Per the Dash-1, you ran power up to (but not beyond) 85%, checked pressures/temps/nozzles, then released brakes while stroking the burners.
Okay, shooting the apple tree and the branches reacting was cool as hell.
Sweet video! But, Jester must have had his watch on upside down at 6:50 ! That debrief would be fun!
Awesome preview of the new F-4- as usual your content is closer to cinema than gameplay.
Thank you so much
Great cinematics! Well done! 😊
👍always amazing!
Thank you
I appreciate it, thank you
Great video! I loved the scenes from the external point of view. good job!
Thank you
What a beast ye old Phantom was.
Powerdisplay.
Great video dude .fun to watch👍🏻cant wait for my f4 21.5 lets go.
Awesome demonstration!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!
Thank you for stating the F-4 is an intuitive learning experience right at the end. I ordered mine but was still weary of how difficult it might be to pilot. Part of the difficulty in DCS is what makes it fun and sooooo satisfying of course, so it wasn't going to dissuade me. But knowing that makes me feel even more excited to get into the cockpit.
I swear, you have the best cinematic videos I've seen on here. You do that beautiful bird justice. 😍
Thank you so much
To navigate, you can use the TACAN method. Choose any airport you want to use as a beacon and then see what's the bearing and distance from that TACAN beacon to your target and tune your TACAN to it. Then just fly so you cross into the heading from TACAN to target and follow it til you reach the target distance. It's super accurate and you only ever need to use the map for initial planning. Even if you have to deviate from your planned flight path to fight some bandits, you can always use that TACAN info to get to where your target is. And it works with any weather and any time of day
Awesome initial review, incredible cinematography. Well done. Can’t wait for the 21st. Loud and smokey = fantastic
I flew the F4 in the royal air force before moving to F3s. Beautiful aircraft to flew and this video is an accurate representation
Amazing! I am looking forward to flying mine 💪
Looks like a masterpiece and I can't think of a batter plane to have been the basis of the work. Well done HEATBLUR and the community which makes this kind of work possible. Take a bow everyone - this is us.
Best preview that I have seen so far!! Great job!!
Thank you very much, I appreciate that
Flawless mission. LongShot delivers another banger.
Thank you buddy
6:17 -- AAAH!! If you're attacking low altitude for the threat, don't climb to egress the threat area...stay low! "If it goes up, it blows up!"
Nice camera editing!
Great display to show off the Phantom. Thank you.
Thank you buddy
@@LongShotChannel You're more than welcome sir
My dad used to shot down F4’s and he says the details are incredible. He could smell the burnt plane and flesh just looking at the video. Great content.
YES FINALY! I have been waiting days for this video Sir! @longshot
Great job by you long shot that F4 bring lots of memories in my past in war time and sand off that engines God never forget. Thanks again for making all this great videos ❤❤
this was perfect, in one video you did everything, sad that the landing wasn't here tho
Finally F-4 content!!! Been waiting, not the best aircraft but imo the coolest 😎
I love the Phantom, I heard it described as "It is proof that with big enough engines even a brick can fly"
That was from a discussion they had with McNamara the secretary of defense back then. The same argument was made with the F-111.
That Forest Gump action when you hit the run except in the movie it was in the jungles of Vietnam
that runway attack was cool!
Love seeing you in the high speed high power jets-
( tho ya Still gotta give the Foxhound a spin lol)
such an awesome demo. thanks for the video!
Thank you
Fantastic editing! ❤
Beaut video - I've noticed on a couple of these different F4 vids quite a bit of judder here and there tho.....but....early access I guess
Holy crap- not only looks amazing but sounds friggin fantastic
Heat Blur Using AIM-9L/M and AIM-7F/M on a supposedly hyper-detailed aircraft model when the real phantoms used AIM-9B/E/J during Vietnam and AIM-9P thereafter is really kind've low balling their own stock in trade.
AIM-7E have an entirely different body duct antenna set and are slight shorter as well as all white. No gunmetal/black fins.
AIM-9J/P is the one with the swept, cranked arrow, canards and longer GCS nose.
The only long-nose Phantom users I know who got the new LAU-114 rails for the AIM-9L/M were the F-4G and RF-4C in the USAF and the F-4E (IDFAF) and F-4F (Luftwaffe). I'm not sure about the JASDF, they may have also gotten them when they upgrade to the F-4EJ-Kai.
As the others have noted, the TISEO is well known as the Target Identification System Electro Optical which, in combination with the ARN-101 LORAN, was an excellent means of updating waypoints, aligning Maverick seekers with early acquisition (daylight) and _taking passive shots_ (radar OFF, CW on) with the AIM-7. The TISEO is aligned with the APQ-120 radar dish which gives you angle off and the CW is your launch+X timing signal for lead pursuit.
Camp New Amsterdam (Soesterburg) F-4E used to regularly smoke Bitburg F-15As with this snapup-to-Fox-1 mode, back in the day (when the early ALR-56 could not detect CW).
So the ASX-1 system really needs to be on the jet, for a lot of reasons, not least that the F-4E turns like a truck and has the energy retention of a whale on stilts with those draggy slats.
So do some combination of ALQ-87/101 (Vietnam) and 119/131 (70s-80s) jammer pods.
And AVQ-23 Pave Spike (late Vietnam) and AVQ-26 Pave Tack (80s, FLIR).
You take off without a TJS pod and you're gonna get tagged because no matter how many times you press it, the Chaff/Flare panic switch only accomplishes so much.
Similarly, you fly OCA airbase without Shrikes and Mavericks to suppress and LGBs (as Spike laser designator pods or AXQ-14 datalinks for the GBU-15) to bomb through the concrete from medium altitudes, and you will be lucky if you don't lose half your squadron on the very first mission.
Post Vietnam, the F-4 community migrated almost entirely to precision strike so the F-teens could have their day in the sun as OCA/DCA 'Air Superiority' ferraris (though an F-4E will humiliate any F-16 on the planet, before AMRAAM).
This meant a lot of heavy weight loads which is more or less why you have a Blk.48 slatted jet. But without LORAN and all the other Strike Goodies, you are not going to be really survivable. For a community used to the F-15/16, this is important or you will get a LOT of buyer's remorse.
Going with the F-4F ICE would also get you early AIM-120 AMRAAM and some schnazzy paint schemes, enabling Su-27/MiG-29 fights without complete embarrassment.
Finally, though it wasn't really prevalent in any way (a few test airframes in the Guard/Res), consider allowing the single-piece windscreen. As staring out of those jail bars is gonna get old, mighty fast, for a lot of players.
1989-1995 I flew F-4G Wild Weasels. We had AIM-9M and AIM-7 F and M. I then trained German Air Force aircrews for 2 tours at Holloman AFB: They had AIM-9L modded for flare rejection...and AIM-120.
The orange tree got lit up like a Christmas tree. The humanity...
Have you got a key binding or HOTAS binding to get Jester to go back to a regular scan?
When i get my Phantom (and yes it'll be mine !!!) I'm going to sit in it in VR and just look around the cockpit for an hour 😎🇬🇧
Please more of the Flying Brick! 😁
Great video, I can't wait looks awesome. Heatblur did it again, Heatblur and DCS World a winning combo. Will be worth the wait, Need a Vietnam Map now, taking out the Cong.
Great video LS!
Would be nice to see more of jester.
I'll get there, still learning
awesome video, great job!
Thank you very much
You know in reality the phantom crew would be shitting bricks when the mug 21 shows up.
That’s like mustangs and Camaro bros when the mk4supra shows up.
Cool! Can't wait for more Vietnam-era (or Middle East conflict) videos with the Phantom. I'm wondering what type of missiles you're carrying here. The AIM-9 looks a bit more of an L/M? Doesn't seem to resemble Vietnam-era Sidewinders carried by USAF Phantoms. And what about the AIM-7? Which type was it?
Via what device do you Play the soundtrack in fight?
camera work is superb
Somebody is gonna eat some steel in those oranges at 5:35
😮😮what a nice video and plane!!!😮😮
Fast and powerful and what not, it looks quite RAD
Longshot, is there a possibility of a WSO or backseater tutorial on this aircraft in the future? I'd like to learn to be a backseater but I really need a tutorial....
Not sure about a tutorial soon, but not a bad idea. I'm learning to WSO now
ChecklistSTT has a good video on the radar from the WSO’s perspective.
🔥🔥
Love the ol’ “Double Ugly” ❤
I like "Snoopy" better
Realy nice, but hopefully the J79 sound will get an update
Well done
Good mission.
Could use a primer maybe GS and you could pull that off.
Not an idiots but an honest tutorial.
Great plane.
Congrats on getting the early preview.
Do we know if there is any bombing system on this plane? At least like the LABS on the A-4? Cause' I sure don't appreciate having to aim bombs like a WW2 fighter if ya know what I mean.
so cool !
American Defense contractors must be required to make their fighter jets look awesome.
superb!
5 days left
It releases on my birthday im so hyped i requested the day off so i can fly it when it does release
This thing is going to force me to learn Boom tanking.
So chaffs works? 7:00
Was curious on how it was to learn the jet... as I am looking forward to buying it...
Easy as the pilot, the WSO I'm learning now
Coincidentally growling sidewinder also made an F4E vid on the same day !?
Each other's wingman....!
You got it too! Haha so badass! Great job LS. Cant wait to being it to my normie channel lol
