The afterburner boom???....Oh yea!....All the century fighter at Nellis sounded like an explosion in AB was engaged (and the F-4B/C)......(kinda like throwing a match of the BBQ pit after dousing it with lighter fluid.)
Most used the J-79 or J-75 if I'm not mistaken.....IIRC many
The next generation of jet engines seem to have a softer engagement....Top Gun intro has a good upclose view of a AB on an F-14......
