It just makes me cringe when I see stock footage of 40-50 year old airplanes being depicted in these kind of documentaries.

I might be wrong, but it looked like the other airplane they were saying was involved in this incident was an F-100. And, I honestly do not think Israel would be flying an airplane that old.

Yes, the Eagle driver involved says it's an A-4 bird that he had collided with. The F-100 Super Sabre were never employed with the IAF inventory.

The History Channel was the one who made the episode, maybe they were the ones who edited that clip and put an F-100 in the film instead of an A-4.
I always wondered when the IAF Bombed the Iraqi Nuclear plant how they show the F-16 fly by a mosque in Iraq, I figured they edited it to tell the story,
That is what I took the misplaced A-4 with an F-100 as.

Just a little piece of trivia:
Col.Ilan Ramon was one of the Israel F-16 fighter pilot participant during that Iraqi Nuke plant raid. Most of us know him as was one of the 7 crewmember of the Columbia shuttle disaster in Feb. 2003.
