So as I learn the Mirage 2000C I thought making a mission to test my skills would be a cool way to do it, so here we are in this video are trying to hit a ground target and we get bounced by some su-27s we have to fight our way in, and fight our way around all the while avoiding enemy AAA and SAMs. Hope you guys enjoy the video thank you for the ongoing support with the channel. Take care.
This video is based on a Fictional Mission any similarities with real life are purely coincidental. If you would like to download and try the mission for yourself, Please see the Video Description for a download link. Thank you for watching and hope you enjoyed, thank you for the on going support with the channel you're all much Appreciated.
Impressive low-level flying....
Well done.
Thanks so much for sharing the mission file. This airframe is getting interesting ever since Razbam continues to overhaul it.
Next level, man! Awesome flying!
Hey, great video! I'll gladly try the mission myself, see if I can at least nail the two Flankers :) Two tips though: 1. at 14:09, that's not a bingo warning, but the config warning - since your drop tank was already empty and you got rid of all bombs, you should switch your FBW mode to increase the g limit 2. when you were dropping bombs, there was a large cross on your hud - you were going too fast for the pipper to be accurate. IIRC you should be between 350kts and 450kts for the pipper to be accurate. Since you were so low and dropped 4, it was close enough, though :)
At this rate Growling Sidewinder will be the first pilot ever to crash due to collision with a mole :-P
hahah ya thats some shit I wouldnt put past me, or die cuz my engine inhaled a moose.
They call it wild weasel for a reason 😂
Yrs ago I knew an old WW2 pilot. If he was still around and saw this video he'd be like "Lower fly lower. You're too high. Single digits"
"I'm not that good in the Mirage"...?
lol got lucky in this one.
The way the dirt kicks up when you are practically on the ground, and the way those rounds kick up dirt as well looks so sick! You are bringing in the sand storm!
I think he just snow-boarded using his external fuel tank!
Command: Fly tree top level pilot!
Pilot: Affirmative.
Command: Wait... not literally.
Pilot: Affirmative.
Command: I meant go up a bit, not down!
Pilot: ... I'm getting static sir... *inserts music*
loooool. "turns on Ipod"
Man you are getting me emotionally invested into your missions.
He’s gotta crush the enemies of France man. No wonder.
2:15 "We'll leave the formation lights on 'cause I think those look cool." Good to see GS sticks to pilot rule #1 at all times.
man formation lights add 3 Hitpoints to ur aircraft. Inst lights add 3 Degrees turn per second. You heard it here first.
When the trees tops are higher than your plane, you know you’re flying lowwwwwwwwwww.
"Well, sir, if the pilot's good, see, and I mean really sharp - he can barrel that baby in so low, I mean, you oughtta see it sometime, it's a sight - a big plane like a 52, VROOM! Its jet exhaust, fryin' chickens in a barnyard! HAS HE GOT A CHANCE?! HELL YES!"
George C. Scott nailed that role as General Buck Turgidson in Dr. Strangelove.
Hey GS, in case you didn't know, you can have your HDD displayed on your helmet, it's called VTB viewport in the controls menu, but you have to put your helmet visor on first I think.
And btw VTB stands for "Viseur Tête Basse", or Heads Down Display. It's nice to see the Mirage still getting some love, hon hon hon
More missions with Mirage please.Amazing channel! i´ve just bought the module with free month and is very nice.Need to keep learning.Fantastic combats and your way of fly..you are practically on the ground
I understand now why India prefered the Mirage 2000 for precision strikes in the kargil war, it really was and still is an excellent platform
How low are you going to fly, Growling?
"Yes."
Wow GS, this one may be your best vid ever... Absolutely epic and beautiful. Gorgeous plane, steel balls flying, heavy duty mission... And all that very well cut.
And you even managed to keep two magics 2 for self escorting RTB :-D
thanks man, ya this was a fun mission I enjoyed it. glad to hear you guys liked it too, i'll try and do more like this down the road.
This is one of your best videos yet! Man I am impressed. Great job!
Thank you man I appreciate it very much
This one really has me on the edge of my seat. Best GS video yet!
Thank you man glad you enjoyed
God you always make it seem like every plane you fly is an air to air monster!! I aspire to be a good pilot like you one day :)
Possibly the sickest piece of low flying - soundtrack - sound effects flying I've seen in a long while 🤙🏻 top work GS. Reminds me of those old desert storm low flying VHS tapes you could get. 🙌🏼
Him: "I'm not good with the mirage..."
Also him: literally becoming a french lawnmower carrying baguettes
Badass flying, what the hell are the us Air Force waiting for? Hire him already 🔥
Nice Mirage flying ! I enjoyed the vid
In case you were wondering the bomb drop was too fast and too high tho which is why you saw the (Don't Release) X cue in the hud - check hud you want 5by5 for snake eyes (500by500) - but with all those threats in the AO nice work indeed :)
If a rabbit had stuck its head up at the wrong moment......!
Awesome video!
Treetop level... more like grass top level
Looool I like to imagine the cars driving the roads and then they see a mirage at 600 knots full afterburner blast by at a couple feet above the grass blowing up dirt and snow. Probably one hell of a sight.
Growling Sidewinder there are videos of French pilots flying their Mirages in that fashion ... your vid here was great
@@GrowlingSidewinder Reminds me of an encounter with a bus in a 2003 video. It was a casual patrol in Morocco, and they were flying a bit too low (they are not alowed to do it, and even less alowed to film it. But still...)
Here is the video. (encounter with the bus at 1'57")
ua-cam.com/video/ZCyR5yzj21g/v-deo.html
When you need to jettison the drop tank so that you can fly lower...
@@GrowlingSidewinder I hope everyone in those cars brought some spare underwear.
You're the DCS channel I've been looking for. Short 20 minutes long missions with TacView.
I don't have a clue what happens in the hour long ones from other channels
ya I try to cut out the bullshit, I figure people don't want to watch u fly home for 30mins flying straight and level, they get it, you survived, you got home, just cut to you landing. I'm glad you like what you see tho thank you for the feedback.
That low level flying and weaving while triple A fire was coming at you was sick. Good music choice. So sick!
11:02 An F1 driver: "I am the fastest moving people on the ground, driving an f1 car is so challenging and stressful."
A Mirage pilot: "Hold my beer." 😁😁
Baguette*
dude the camera change at 6:50 was sick great little showing of the jet
I germany we would say "Bierfalschenhöhe" (beer top level). Nice flying skills GS, you dropped one of your best vid so far.
The mirage is a true master piece of a jet. Love the fact the HAF have it since it’s so capable.
Wow that was just awesome !!! Really man !!! Great flying and I wonder how many rabbits you cooked on the way there. Fantastic 👍🏻
Dude!! You outdid even yourself. I always look forward to your videos and this is one of the best I’ve seen, even beyond your other outstanding vids. I’m a Patreon supporter now, and you had asked about the historical videos and I am definitely a fan of those. Maybe some more obscure air conflicts such as the Indo-Pakistani conflicts? Thanks again, amazing job with this video. That low level flying was jaw dropping
that was like an ace combat mission
thanks for the vids bro. learning so much from watching them. i've been playing dcs about a week now and can confidently pilot the f14 and the f16. got my first 6k earlier in multiplayer. 4 long range aim120c's all hit at a range of about 25nm and then 2 aim9 kills from the distance of about 4nm's before returning home and landing. I thought it was going to take a good 6 months to figure DCS out but thanks for your video's i'm progressing much faster than that.
hey man, first of all, congrats and pulling the trigger and joining us DCS guys, we always love getting new people, congratulations on your success thats really amazing for someone whos been on for a week. Really awesome to hear people find the videos useful and helpful. Thank you for watching brother a goodluck in the DCS skies.
10:34 - you are closer to the ground than you would've been with gear deployed, you call that tree level 😂😂
That's Buccaneer level.
Man I find this much more entertaining than Hollywood scenes - you have to make a movie some day :D
Downloaded, awesome low level footage. Thanks for the entertainment.
my pleasure own, thanks for watching and enjoy the mission.
That was Epic man, thanks for the video :D
My pleasure man thank u for watching
I think this is my new favorite video from you, GS!
Better than many hollywood movies. Great job, really enjoyable to watch. :)
Very kind of you Gareth thank you for watching
'I'm not very good in the Mirage'. Yeah, right :) :)
By far one of the best DCS videos I've seen in my life, which is my buddy's expertise, congratulations on the show. MIRAGE literally surfed!!!
The tree-top run is easily the best thing I've seen in DCS
Man, These are among the coolest and craziest visuals i have ever seen..
glad you enjoy them man. thanks for watching
Love the musical montage.. Mirage is such an elegant fighter too. Really good video altogether :D
I wish we had the Fox 3 Mirage in DCS, I love the way it flies
That was really good !! I really liked the low flying infiltration mixed with the rock music, So Cool !!!
Wow. That into into this mission alone was outstanding. I haven't even seen the rest of this video, but I know it's going to be awesome.
That is incredible flying. You're dragging that fuel tank on the deck lol.
Good to see you adopted the tactics of the RNZAF Skyhawks, that is flying a couple metres off the ground
Edge of the seat kinda stuff right there. Wow! And that "Clothing Iron" sure does look pretty...
Thanks for including the mission file I love having the chance to play the mission myself and try to replicate your performance
i'm sure you will do much better than me, enjoy man.
Had a great time watching this video. Lovely cinematic views. Boy, that nap of the earth flight was stunning with the mirage. 👍
damn dude ! i had never seen the miraze fly so low with max speed ...your skills are awesome !!!
Love it! Always a great watch and listen - less grating than some others content makers.
hello from France and thank you for the mirage 2000 - nice vidéo -
beautiful immerssion :)
My pleasure thank you for watching
@@GrowlingSidewinder
in France we got to know you thanks to @ate chuet :)
and we appreciate your collaboration - your videos are interesting.
The tree top bit gave me goosebumps with the music, fucking awesome video, man
Dude on the DECK. More like the SSC than a mirage. That was sick, and the music wasn’t bad either. A nice touch.
Loved every bit of it. Nice analysis and nice tactics . Keep it up
Love that mission. Done it with the F-14B and the Mig-29. I just bought a Mirage so I thought I'd check this video again
how do you self escort? I picture myself vaguely escorting myself to jail while in handcuffs behind my back and a primed and loaded shotgun in hand. Dont make me taze myself, bro.
Actually lold
+1
LoL.. Funny
Amazing video. That makes me wonder - does DCS simulate flying in ground effect? The plane should require more pitch up trim but less AoA at those conditions (increased lift and a tendency to pitch down in ground effect). Then again the 2000 is fly by wire so actually it should probably be transparent to the pilot but it would be interesting to try it with an old school mechanical stick plane and see what DCS makes of it.
BTW Growling have you seen "les chevaliers du ciel" ("sky fighters")? Coincidentally I saw it yesterday. It's a French Topgun like movie about the Mirage. Story is unrealistic but the aerial photography is spectacular. Best flight footage I've ever seen. I recommend you watch the blu ray if you can. Those mirage shots deserve HD.
ASJC27 Nice idea for a new video: Top Gun vs. Sky Fighters: the F14 trying to keep the French fighter at bay with its AIM-54Cs while the Mirage cranks at low level to get into S530 firing distance. T français aussi?
@@crossmeister Great idea. Should be really interesting. And no, I'm not French.
Even though the M2000 is fly-by-wire, you could theoretically still check for the effect of ground effect by looking at the equilibrium values for angle of attack in level flight. Although, I guess at 500kts and below tree tops, the AoA is already low enough to make any AoA quite hard to measure indeed, and even more the loss due to ground effect :).
@Growling Sidewinder: that Mirage run, the effective editing and nice added sound effect earned you an instant subscribe - this is very movie-like ! Thank also you for being kind enough to share the .miz file, that will be tomorrow challenge.
The low flying was absolutely AMAZING!!
It seems like Top gun: Maverick trailer!
GS, your vids are getting better and better. I like your style of production, dude!
thank you rick, wouldnt have any motivation to get better without support and motivation from subs like you brother. Appreciate ya man.
Hey man each time I see one more video of your channel I love it more!! It is absolutely amazing!! Great job!!
hello Eduardo, thank you thats very kind of you, I appreciate the support.
Hey great vid Growling. Just a FYI. You can't drop mk82 SE above 480 kts because the tails literally rip off. I had to blow up a pile of uxb mk82s after F-111s dropped them to fast. We found most that didn't skip miles off the island out to see. They were HE bombs. Enjoyed the scenario idea. ;)
Man that's really cool, nice to see a mission with some choice music in the background. New appreciation for the Mirage.
Love the way you describe everything you do and explain the reasoning behind every action!
This was nail-biting and badass all in one, and this may be one of my Top 5 Growling Sidewinder videos so far! Inteeeeeeense 👌👌
Congratulations Sidewinder, mission completed, head over to debrief while I submit your paperwork for a DFC 🎖
Weren’t you worried about a squirrel strike flying that low? Awesome video as usual my friend!
Man you flew Argentinian good on this one. Amazing low level high risk mission.
Oh man, i think im in love with your videos! Keep up your good works.
The whole Mirage family have been superb. Not sure I can think of much the 2000 in particular was not great at. They sure got the basic mix right 60 odd years ago!
Ow yea awesome mission
Music to the ride in and low flying was perfect 😁
Fantastic video. congratulation. I have just got the DCS World M2000C. It's an amazing aircraift
Holy shnikeys. That was bloody wonderfull. You sure know your onions. Cheers GS.
I love when Growling does these missions. Satisfying to watch
thanks jay glad you like it man
Growling Sidewinder my pleasure
Absolutely insane burning all that fuel at low level and below the trees. Honestly cool but totally unreasonable. Still Super Cool 😎
Awesome flying skills dude...
Love from India...👍👍👏👏
That was really cool finally seeing you take on a full BVR encounter in a Mirage rather than guns dogfighting! much more entertaining! :D
it was fun man, I might do it again soon.
@@GrowlingSidewinder would love to see that! surviving a BVR approach in a Mirage against the big russian or american Fox 3 jets is always aheadache and it's interesting seeing you crack it!
LoL.. VERY COOL FLYING GROWLER! ENJOYED THAT MAN.. THANK YOU!
I miss GS M2000 videos, I need more!!
love this plane to bits
im amazed how you manage to find such good copyright free music
When the guitar music came on reminded me of queen /iron eagle score , when all the middle easterners run towards their jets ready for take off Not knowing 730 rounds could take out 37 aircraft (he had 20 rounds left)
GOOD CLIP GOOD CLIP
I WISH WE COULD SEE YOUR THROTTLE POSITION WHEN YOU ARE IN ONE OR 2 circle dogfights just an indicator on the screen edge somehow
Wow epic shots, I love the Mirage. Just like the french do in real life man!!
Felt like i was watching Flight of the Intruder oooops I mean Flight of the Mirage. You have helped me alot with this jet. There is something about the Mirage that I can not get enough of. Taking notes and keep the videos coming. :)
You saying "I'm not that good in the Mirage" and then showing some serious low level flying skills made me laugh :-D
loved this mission, excellent! . . . and the mirage, childhood memories of RAAF Mirage III's have the delta planform imprinted on my mind. Very entertaining.
Really nice to see the M2K out on a mission GS. The accompanying music was fantastic too. The MOE was a really nice touch. I wish my hotas controls would give me that ability ...
Hey GS nice vid as always, one of the best dcs vids ever...this proved the capability of the mirage 2000, that’s why my country (India) used the mirage 2000 exceptionally well in mountain ranges as an close air support, with its GBU bombs with lot of accuracy, if you could maybe do a recreation of the Kargil war when Indian mirages bombed high targets in mountains, while dodging many MANPADS which were stingers.
Mirage has been my favorite jet fighter ever since I was a kid, because my father bought me Tanguy & Laverdure comic series
Nice, we want more AG missions!
Crazy run my friend! Great Job! Nice!
Looks like a fun mission. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻.
Yay a Mirage mission that works. 😁 cool video some great shots.
👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
Great video, I enjoyed the flying with the kick ass music. Great job, it is hard to separate me from my hard earned cash but your channel is worth it and I want to see you around for a while.
Best Patreon I have. Thank you.
8:57 beware the gopher! ☠️
M2K!!!! My favorite module. Can’t wait for the M2K-5!!! Any news from Razbam on that?
Not that I know of if they do finally drop that I will fly the absolute shit out of that
I can't wait for the mirage f1. That's being made right now😬
From what I heard here in France, the mirage 2000-5 like the rafale won't be at our disposal. They will be at the exclusiv use of the "armée de l'air" and the "Marine Nationale ". Don't know if it's true though...
Very nice low level flight. DCS from the finest.
damn!! I must get DCS soon!! thanks for the vids!! AWESOME!!
my pleasure man, hope you join us soon
