Egypt?
It's a Libyan Arab Tupolev Tu-22 ( The Libyan Arab Republic Air Force 1969-77 ). The pic was taken in April 1977 before the Federation of Arab Republics was disbanded in the same year. Hence the arab style national markings.

F-15 Eagle aircraft from the 7th Tactical Fighter Squadron are prepared for takeoff during Exercise REFORGER '83, Canadian Forces Base, Lahr, West Germany, 21 September 1983.
Exactly. I figured this one was much more interesting than a BMF one plus you have a F-4 too boot.
Lovely shots!

I love the Paper Skies channel. I believe it's by a Ukrainian. I guess that's the "funnest" part about the videos.

And F2H-3/4 Banshee of US Navy. Note that some USN Banshees were also able to use AIM-9B, like Canadian ones.

I could look it up but I enjoy the conversation more. Which has been in service longer, the Tu-95 or the B-52?

There you go, I looked it up for you. B-52 entered service in 1955 and the Tu-95 a year later.

And at about 100 mph faster and heavier payload, well unlike today, back then Boeing seems to have been able to get things right!
