They look like F-4's to me. If so, bet that was loud as crap on the ground. Nope, my guess is French Rafale's. Single engine, single seat, fixed refueling probe offset to the right.
I love the part about 30 seconds in where the guy is flying about 10 feet off the ground and he's looking at a map????

Look over the leaders shoulder in the cockpit video segments - shoulder mounted wing, round aerospike inlets - Mirage F1.
But you already came to that conclusion. :-)

The music sort of made me think these guys were IDF, but the IDF doesn't have any F1's in their inventory.

Did a search of the IDF website, they show several Dassault aircraft previously in their fighter inventory, but the F1 was conspicuously misssing.

Too bad one can't simply download the video without logging on to that site.

I'll have to check when I het home but, in the book Zanek!, about the history of the Israeli Air Force, I am sure just about every model of early French performance fighter/interceptor was used...

I see that he pulled out a road map to be sure that there wasn't a mountain coming up.

Yep French F-1 Mirage and I do believe those were French Foreign legion troops on the ground.
