You have to allow for the 'bias'. But the CGI is great.

Sorry no subtitles and almost all in VNese. But it's good eye candy anyway….

The film is called 'Silver Swallows' and was made by Duy Tan University in DaNang.

Doesn't seem to show a lot of bias, but I'm not sure about some of the color schemes on the USAF aircraft, unless this is very early in the war. This may be so, because the VNAF aircraft are MIG-17s.

Agree, this is pretty neutral.

I have seen other clips and it portrays the VN pilots as guardian angels, and the US as 'terrorfliers'.

So I thought I would add the 'bias' trigger warning just in case.

MiG-17 were the most numerous VNAF fighter throughout the war so that isn't an indication of time. Also I'm pretty sure F-100s weren't used as MiGCAP in the north. I don't remember ever seeing a photo of F-105s that weren't painted in camo while in Vietman.
