My F4, AIM-7, setup memory aid.

[Holbeach]

Video is my memory aid for setting up a shoot on 2 Bears. Set pylons for tanks only for jettison, not AA missiles + gun. Master Arm on. CW on (up). Pinky to Radar. Jester V short, track. V 2 return to search. V long, lock target. Lights on, SHOOT.

Might be useful to someone.

Exploring the Look down and Look up capabilities of the F4E and AIM 7M Semi active Radar missile, (same as RAF Sky Flash). Target is a Bear, flying at 26000'. Ist run is level launch from 43000'. 2nd run is level launch from 8000'. 3rd run is from low level and needed some Loft help to get a Radar lock. The mission has 16 target aircraft and is based around, 1982 to 1985, with FGR2 Phantoms from RAF Stanley, carrying 2 tanks, 4 SkyFlash and 4 AIM 9L Sidewinder, against F1 Mirage, MB339, C130 troop transport, and Bear recce aircraft attacking Stanley, where they meet Rapier and Seacat missile defences..
