  • Action packed till the end! Lately I dedicated myself in flying the Mi-8 Hip doing recon and deep strikes. I felt a bit adventurous and decided to poke the hornet nest since there is a bluefor airbase nearby. This sortie took place on 18/8/2023 in Enigma's Cold War, Syria. Enjoy!
    As usual, the song i pick for my ECW videos are from Karl Casey @WhiteBatAudio songs are:

      @@Rodz88 Thank you very much for the answer. It seems like a very nice combo indeed, i tried the T16000M throttle and with some grease it is indeed very nice. Seeing how smoothly you pilot helicopters with it, its amazing. Can't wait to see more of it !

    Nice low flying, that does seem to help me, I always scrape the ground. Makes it harder for the fighters to track especially if you change direction. Of course I will say the MiG-21 was earning his pay as well. Great video!

    Man a Pave Low would be perfect for a mission like this. Imagine that!

    I’m going to fly the hell out of the Chinook, and I’m trying to become the pilot of one irl. An older, analog variant would be perfect for ECW. A Vietnam-era CH-47A and ACH-47A gunship would be absolutely glorious.
    But a Pave Low would just be a chef’s kiss in a sortie like this.

    Flying the hip (and the hind) in the ECW server has been my almost only flight time in DCS, since i discovered this server... Sneaking to blue bases and droping troops is crazy and most of the times i get shotdown halfway, but when i do it, it feels great :D ... my only complain about the hip, the AI gunners are nothing more than passengers... guess they like more drinking their russian vodka, than doing their job :D

    • @Rodz88
