Thanks and yeah I think I got 8 kills by the end

lol it happens if you kill someone right as they're firing one. I have shot down missiles mid-air as well tho. Fox-3s can definitely track missiles

i think it just hit a tree :P

Flankers are required to stay 10ft off the ground 90% of the time

It is curious that the Soviet airplanes used to fight at low altitudes, where they had the best perfomance, sometimes even better than the Germans, especially during the 1943-1945 period, and now Flanker also performs at low altitudes@@rippp4631

why? @@rippp4631

@andreikokot8927 it's a half joke but the flanker thrives at low speeds & altitudes. Mostly because of its maneuverability and it never really loses datalink connection in DCS at low altitudes. It can hold its own in BVR especially with the pl-12, but NATO systems are better designed for BVR in my opinion.

Wait til you see it blown off from an aim-9 from the cockpit

I'm running bogey dopes settings, just Luma sharpen and curves

So do i, but yours look so sharp. Keep the vids coming love them :)

@@jankristiansen3146 it could be the SSS shadows making it look sharper, I'd try that if you haven't, makes trees look insanely good

lol I was checking my flare count and forgot about the mountain

Most f-18 pilots just got installed and picked the jet everyone else told them to get

It's definitely fun fighting f-16s, 18s and 15s in the valleys

Yes, I always max afterburner home so I rarely get caught

Turn your radar on for a split second, check the letters in the bottom left of the HUD. A locked target will respond A for hostile or AFR for friendly

thanks mate@@rippp4631

I can't wait for the FF MiG-29, it's gonna be so cool learning legit 4th gen Russian systems

@@rippp4631 i wish dcs would create some sort of battlefield manager or HQ or whatever, where you have AI or humans, making missions with limited planes aka what your side can build, or send etc and taking economic factor into calculation, so you can end up with more migs, like mig23, vs f4s, f5, f15, and can play around with Air defense zone traps and low flying high flying baiting.. you can end up defeating much more qualitative side by using cheaper means and simple tactics due to low maintenance and running cost of the machines. i just calculated some stuff considering flying hour vs. maintenance hour, always after 1 flying hour maintenance hours follows, for western airplanes this figure is considerably higher, ergo, mission sortie tempo would fall drasticaly for western planes after 3 weeks or 2 months while USSR could keep up air presence at high level still. i read for 1 hour f22 has to get 40 hours maintenance.. so for a fleet of 96 f22, you get to cover 4 zones (x8 to cover whole day 24 hours) and this would be very narrow, if something breaks you are sending lone f22 to cover whole air zones, this is just simplifying but numbers don't lie, having long maintenance needed reduces availability thus making your fleet needs be bigger, so 100 planes vs. 100 planes is not the equation, neither is technology (unless 2 generations apart), but availability for high tempo sorties..

The Olympus mod that just came out might have some of the features you just listed, I'd look into it

Yes
