At the height of the War of Attrition between Israeli and Egyptian forces, Soviet air power is deployed to protect key targets in the region, and to take the fight back to the marauding Israeli aircraft. The Israeli Air Force prepares a plan to bait Soviet MiG-21s into a dogfight where they can be engaged.

“The Egyptians themselves reacted with ill-concealed delight at the outcome of the engagement. They had previously suffered intense criticism of their own performance and boasts of superior Soviet skills, when in fact the Soviets had fallen for tactics the Egyptians were already familiar with.” “Egyptian military leaders were pleased with the outcome of the battle because the Soviets had long been criticizing Egypt's aerial losses to Israel and attributing them to a lack of skill among Egyptian fighter pilots. The Soviets kept quiet about the incident so as to avoid the embarrassment of their defeat. It was one of the final engagements of the War of Attrition and is widely believed to have contributed to its conclusion.“ lmao.

Side note: The Soviets, just like the Americans, abandoned aerial combat when Air-to-Air missiles were first introduced. But then high losses of Soviet-trained North Vietnamese pilots and their own losses in Egypt convinced Soviet high command to relaunch air combat schools, which became the Soviet version of Top Gun, Center for Combat Development 1521 at the airbase Мaryy, or "Мaryy" for short. Ironically, Maryy was the airbase where the Soviet fighter regiment was sent to sharpen their skills before they went to Egypt, the very regiment that was bested by the Israelis in this video. Paper Skies did a great video about this Soviet Top Gun, search "Soviet TOPGUN | The Airbase "Мaryy" Story", I can't post a link here because RU-vid bots delete comments with links for some reason.

Thanks for the excellent video. The War Of Attrition is surely one of the most ridiculous wars in terms absolutely unbelievable engagements as well as the surrounding politics. For example, at the time Israel operated an armored special forces unit known as White Bear, which consisted of amphibious Soviet-made tanks and IFVs, that used to cross the Suez Canal in special circumstances. In one such operation this unit crossed into Egypt and accidentally ran over a Soviet general and killed a few more, all while doing horrible damage to a number of Egyptian military installations. I highly recommend looking into the research of Boris Dolin, I don't think he was published in English but might have.

Some people here are rewriting History (because this is what they learn at school in Egypt). They claim this 1973 War was a victory for Egypt against Israel. If so why Israel returned the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt only on April 25, 1982? 9 years after the war! This restitution followed the Israeli-Egyptian peace agreements signed in 1979, known as the Camp David Accords. These agreements, mediated by the United States, led to the normalization of relations between Israel and Egypt, as well as Israel's withdrawal from the Sinai Peninsula.

@Gencrossbones Год назад

@Sunopeek 25 дней назад

Because without the war, Israel would have never returned the Sinai. They couldn't guarantee a future victory, so they decided peace at any cost was the best option and gave back the Sinai. After they gave back the Sinai, the war became a victory for Egypt. Israel gained nothing after 73 while Egypt got all its goals

@Sunopeek 22 дня назад

@@KingHorus378 They were militarily inferior and still drove Israel to the edge of the war to the point where Israel thought it had to use nukes just to get a draw against Egypt. Israeli generals gained respect for them and were terrified of fighting the Egyptians again. That much is true. But they did not win the battlefield. At most, you could say it was a draw since neither sided wanted or could continue, and they both wanted a ceasefire. Don't forget that both sides had their wmds pointed at each other (Egypt had Soviet supplied nukes) and ready to fly.

@KingHorus378 22 дня назад

@@Sunopeek no sir, you could say draw, if the situation stayed as it is after ceasefire, but Egypt got the objective of the military operation.

Good tactical decision making and planning is critical in terms of setting up a Battle space and executing a mission.

That's a rather far-fetched conclusion though. Generally speaking, Egyptian and Arab pilots in general were and probably still are mediocre because of various reasons. They rely heavily on central command (ground-controlled interception) and display poor tactical behavior and creative thinking. Many don't even understand how some parts of their aircraft work. More likely, Soviet pilots of that time were similarly mediocre as Egyptian pilots were.

@@BlueBockser if properly trained Egyptian pilots would fair much better* than they did and mediocrity is a relative term,however the Egyptian Airforce command structure,training and control was largely based on the Soviet system which left little leeway in the way aerial combat is conducted.Control and direction from the ground not only prohibits initiative it allows the opposition to take advantage of the situation…*the N Vietnamese Airforce used the Soviet system a lot more effectively than the Egyptians and in some instances was able to take advantage of the the restrictions and constraints placed on American pilots so yeah mediocrity is a relative term …

Most videos I need to rewind to make sure I understand the setting, time and location wise. 2) A channel of this size and consistent success should maybe consider providing subtitles for their videos, rather than counting on the auto-generated ones. Deaf and HoH communities would thank you, but they would still be beneficial to all your viewers such as myself, especially since you use so much specific military terminology that the auto-subtitles won't pick up. Again, love your work and I give these suggestions out of love

Both of those are good points. Yes a lot of the military terms may not be easily apparent

@ZbjetisGod Год назад

The aircraft look very different, pilots are communicating with each other and most importantly pilots spend a ton of time studying to identify enemy assets.

I really like that this channel uses the same language for every side in every conflict they cover. They always say "miraculously" or "manage to escape", but never "disappointingly" or "manage to evade punishment" or similarily coloured language. Wars are THE most politically charged topics and yet they manage to lay out the history as it unfolded on the battlefield without indicating any favour to any side. Let the viewers decide if a blown up nazi tank is a good thing or not - or a sunk argentine battleship...

Hi Operation Room, Any chance you would cover the 442nd Infantry Regiment during WWII? They are the most decorated in U.S. military history and as a fighting unit composed almost entirely of second-generation American soldiers of Japanese ancestry. Many of these men had soldiers had families in the U.S. concentration camps while they were fighting. Love your channel! Thanks!

@@marina12345678911000 Agreed. But during that time countries like France and Britain provided that support to Israel. All formentioned countries were on the American side. In a way this was a cold war as both the Eastern and Western blocks were trying to expand their influence in the middle east.

@peterh5165 Год назад

Good video! Thanks for making this video available to the general public. Love the animated maps of how the battle(s) unfold. I would love to see you do a video of Operation Bolo during the Vietnam War! Operation Bolo (January 2, 1967) was similar to this battle in that it was ruse by the US Air Force to force the North Vietnam Air Force fighters into battle with US fighters. Up until this point the North's fighters avoided combat with US fighters and instead concentrated on hit-and-run tactics on the heavily loaded fighter bombers which often forced these bomber formations to jettison their bomb loads in defense (up to 20% of strikes were forced to jettison their bomb loads before hitting their targets). Once again, thanks for making these videos.
