Not sure if this has already been posted...

It's definitely interesting to see all the new features for the F-4E!

[Erhardt]

Not sure if you have seen this video, but I was surprised at how good the F4E could bomb...I am not able to bomb much better than this with CCIP in the F-16C.

For you who do not own it, the take off and landing is on the Kola map at Bodø airport in Norway...and no, that is not how we pronounce it...lolz

Is it pronounced like Buddha? I remember years ago talking with Bodo control when flying in the polar region. 

[Erhardt]

No sir, it is pronounced Bodø....Next time we meet in Discord I will let you hear the word...it is not very difficult, but, it is certainly not Buddha - no offense.

Sorry it’s been a long time and I couldn’t remember. I know it has a unique pronunciation. 

[Flyboy]

Keep them coming! I’m excited too. 

[Flyboy]

It was bothering me and I had to look it up. I think I was pretty close according to this. Just needed to hang on that u a little longer. Certainly sounds a bit like Buddha to a clumsy and crude American gun toting cowboy

For those of us who understand German - it is also the first time I see the load out screen for the F-4E and the guided AG missiles - I am guessing the Bullpup is not a very good missile? (do you not need to steer it into the target?)

 

[Flyboy]

Perhaps you prefer “boooo, duh” . That’s always been my problem with languages. I would try to say something in Japanese or Spanish to a native and they give you this blank look like “wth is this guy blabbering and in what language?”

[Erhardt]

AGM65s do not seem difficult to use, but if I manage to get a human RIO to fly with me, I think I will let him find and fire at targets - flying and looking for targets seems a little too hard for me (although I do it in the FA-18C and F-16C...)

[Vonrd]

Look (and listen) at about 6:05. How's his pronunciation @Erhardt?

 

[Erhardt]

Thanks Vonrd - his pronunciation is very close to mine - oddly Ålesund is one of the names that differ as did Trondheim, which we call Trondhjem, but overall it is very close to how I say the names, although he is from way up north....Sortland translates to "Black country"...do not ask me why...

[Erhardt]

Flyboy I listened to the pronunciation site you linked and that did not sound like a Norwegian speaker to me!?

Have no idea. But is the pronunciation correct or close?
