F-111 Aardvark - Dump and Burn

            Cross View Stereo

The F-111 Aardvark was an all-weather attack aircraft and strategic bomber, capable of low-level penetration of enemy defences. It was the first production aircraft to feature variable-sweep wings enabling both low speeds for takeoff and landing and supersonic flight. It could reach Mach 2.5 and fly at 60,000 feet.
 The F-111 entered service with the US Air Force in 1967. It flew in Vietnam and in Operation Desert Storm, before its retirement in 1998. It continued to fly with the Royal Australian Air Force until 2010, where the aircraft was dubbed 'the pig’.
It carried a lot of fuel which it could dump quickly to lighten load and improve manoeuvrability and which would be ignited by the afterburners with spectacular effect. Whilst the USAF banned the practice the RAAF used it for entertainment at Air Shows.
