PS the music they are �marching� to is one of the best marches ever.

Le boudin

Tiens, voil� du boudin, voil� du boudin, voil� du boudin
Pour les Alsaciens, les Suisses et les Lorrains.
Pour les Belges y en a plus.
Pour les Belges y en a plus.
Ce sont des tireurs au cul.
Pour les Belges y en a plus.
Pour les Belges y en a plus.
Ce sont des tireurs au cul.

Nous sommes des d�gourdis,
Nous sommes des lascars
Des types pas ordinaires.
Nous avons souvent notre cafard,
Nous sommes des l�gionnaires.
Au Tonkin, la L�gion immortelle
� Tuyen-Quang illustra notre drapeau,
H�ros de Camerone et fr�res mod�les
Dormez en paix dans vos tombeaux.
Nos anciens ont su mourir
Pour la gloire de la L�gion.
Nous saurons bien tous p�rir
Suivant la tradition.
Au cours de nos campagnes lointaines,
Affrontant la fi�vre et le feu,
Oublions avec nos peines,
La mort qui nous oublie si peu.
Nous la L�gion.

Here, some blood sausage, here's some blood sausage, here's some blood sausage
For the Alsacians, the Swiss, the Lorrains.
The Belgians get none, the Belgians get none...
They're rear end-draggers (as in they don't carry their fair weight)
The Belgians get none, the Belgians get none...
They're rear end-draggers

We're clever, we're rogues
We aren't ordinary blokes
We often get the blues
But we're legionnaires

At Tonkin, the immortal Legion
A Tuyen-Quang showed our colors
Heros of the Camaron and model brothers
Sleep in peace in your tombs

Our elders knew well enough to die
For the glory of the legion
We all, too, know to perish
As is our tradition

During our campaigns in distant lands
Confronting fever and fire
Let us forget, along with our pains,
Death--who never forgets us
We, the Legion

Is the big aura around the thing skin heating? Some blindingly bright IR light that's meant to make the thing miss?

Also it looks like he's just booking it straight in afterburner, is that really the protocol? I'd think you'd want to maneuver to get the seeker to drop track.

That's kind of a tricky set of questions to ask without better knowledge from the F-16 and type of camera.

Here's a regular-rear end airliner, for example on a commercial grade IR camera. Skip to about 45 seconds in.

It's most likely the RWR go DUDE, LOOK, DOWN THERE and him firewall'ing the throttle ergo the afterburner pumping out the jams. The last thing any of those dudes want, besides getting hit in the first place, is to also have to bail out over that territory.

Nah, the barrels are too long for the K, and whenever you see a G36 without the big ol' standard reflex sight the Bundeswehr sports, it's usually the export variant

the K looks more spec-opsey and doesn't have standard optics on it like those in the video
