F-104 Starfighter Awesome J79 HOWL over Italy

Absolutely Lethal Plane

The TF-104GM Starfighter returns to Italy during the Italian Air Force Centenary Airshow at Pratica di Mare 2023.

According to Youtuber PaddyPatrone, the plane encountered a couple of technical issues over the weekend, so there was technically only one flight at the airshow. Still, it was truly a feast for the eyes and ears. With those small wings, the takeoff and landing speeds look quite high.

This stunning machine is absolutely timeless, and that howl from its engine! We couldn’t find any words to describe the sound. Truly awesome!

This plane looks and sounds lethal, don’t you think? Let us know your thoughts!
