NATO Ministry of Information video thread

That’s from one of the Austin Powers movies.

LOL! Thanks.

The first one - but the second one also has a similar scene.

How many times do I have to tell people that you cannot see laser beams! :point_left:

Great article by a pilot of the C-2 COD…

Great read, and it’s heartbreaking in some ways. An SK1 buddy of mine came from the VRC community before he took over S-7 on the ship, and the stories he told are very, very familiar to what I read in that article. It’s interesting to me how the most important role to let the Navy actually complete its mission is so woefully ignored. I guess it’s one of those things the people wearing stars don’t think about needing until they don’t have it any more.

I think they went below the hard deck. Video apparently shows an F-22 shooting (simulated) an A-4 in an exercise…the weapons bay door comes open at around :50 (I can’t really see it though…)

Not pictured: a second A-4 piloted by Michael Ironside saddling up on the F-22’s six.

Dont know if this has been posted, but some pretty crazy off-bore shots on here. I particularly like the “escort” shot, basically a 90 offset…
