    If they ever bring this show back, that’ll be the best day of my life
  • THIS IS WHAT I WANT HISTORY CHANNEL, NONE OF THAT ICE ROAD TRUCKER SLOP YOU KEEP BROADCASTING.
  • @wsgeo
    One of the best shows produced for the History Channel, i wish they would produce another show with this format.
  • @rorynelson2482
    This was definitely was of the best programs the History Channel ever aired. There's nothing even close today.
  • @silentact1
    Please don’t stop uploading these who ever you are you’re the best
  • @ricktaylor3748
    This is infinitely better than Ice Road Swamp people or Hard Core Mystery Truckers.
  • @CaptainZachAim7
    Massive shoutout to History for uploading the content we’ve been missing for years. It’s definitely nice watching dogfights in 1080p and for that, we thank you.
  • @MUSTANG_P51
    Operation Desert Storm solidified the F-15C Eagle as one of the best dogfighters of the time. love it!
  • @StryderK
    Just a note: The Fulcrum’s better thrust to weight ratio is ONLY applicable at 1/2 load of fuel and NO weapons. Hang weapons on the MIG-29 and the thrust to weight ratio drops massively. So in REALISTIC combat load out, the Eagle has every advantage.

    Seeing these nearly 15 years later but in full HD is so awesome...
  • I remember sitting down with my dad for dinner watching our favorite show together and got super excited when we learned that another episode was on right after the first one we watched ended. Battle 360 was another excellent series we loved also. Those are some of my favorite times I loved spending quality time with my dad.
  • Gotta say, this brings back memories back when it first aired on tv. My uncle would always tell me when a new episode would come out and I’d even sneak to the living room in the middle of the night just to watch it..great times..
  • @golfinguy423
    History...You are making me watch you again. Thank you for whoever uploaded this.
  • I know somebody said this already, but let me forward this: Whoever is uploading these deserves a medal
  • @joet7136
    My dad would've loved to have watched this series. He was retired Air Force and passed away in 1993.
  • @XxDaNnYxX12
    I grew up with history channel and shows like this. It’s so incredibly awesome to be able to enjoy this even more as so many years later

    I was stationed at Elmendorf 26:37 AFB from 1999 until I PCS'd in 2002. Being Security Forces I worked in every corner of the base. One of my favorite places was the different F-15 ramps. I was fortunate enough to be able to guard several aircraft that had made air to air kills in Desert Storm. The F-15, and the F'-4 will always be my two favorites. Watching the Eagle alert birds scramble and go in full afterburner while pretty much going vertical was absolutely amazing. I feel extremely lucky to have had those opportunities as a young man.
  • I was on the USS Midway during Desert Storm. The night before, anyone who was qualified to load bombs was on deck ready to go. Nothing quite like working a 17 hour day.
