Dull in imagery and contrast First films show the new all-weather Sabre jet, armed with a battery of lethal, radar-aimed 'might mouse' rockets - sudden death for any enemy bomber crossing this interceptor's path. Establishing shot - Sabre jet sitting on the tarmac with the pilot all set to go, as soon as the check out is completed. MLS - Sabre jet taking off. Air to Air shot - Sabre jet flying firing rockets blowing up obsolete planes. Aerial OH shot - Sabre jet with the pilot looking up at the camera. Ground CUS - Plane getting blown up. Air to Air shot - Very formidable shot of the rockets getting shot out of the Sabre jet, trace flames traveling through the air, making contact with its target on the ground, blowing up a plane to smithereens-(good piece of footage). Air to Air shot - Sabre jet with the pilot visible.
