As a viewer, I feel highly valued
This is important to me
As a viewer who watches with captions, I feel "valid". :)
@@grimreapers so do I. You taught me how to fly.
@@grimreapers always humble, always going the extra mile, and always concerned with his fans. Cap is easily in my top 5 favorite UA-camrs. The man is a legend.
We need a Grim Reapers/C.W. Lemoine collaboration. Would love to see Cap, C.W. & the Reapers get into some sort of wild DCS scenario. Maybe a triathlon competition with Cap & C.W. as the judges? Carrier landing, bombing, and low level canyon run?
Maybe some day…
For real, dude. I honestly feel like Cap and his crew really do care about us. Like I would legit love to meet him! They put so much work and production value into these vids it just amazes me. Plus they have an extraordinarily diverse representation from all over the world when people have such a hard time getting along. As a "valued viewer," these bids make me feel validated >
Cap: "I've lost both slats, i better be careful"... *Proceedes to supersonic immelmann into landing pattern* lol
Right? I was watching thinking, "720 knots indicated... Typical Cap crash landing." Cap: executes textbook landing flair and aero braking... Before nearly rolling the plane over when almost stopped.
Come on guys, that's a gentle approach for me? x
never a more cap thing has been done ;-)
@@grimreapers just wanted to know, do you use a head tracker? If so, which one? Thanks!
@grim reapers yeah seconded, looking to get one myself
Feels like a missed opportunity not to have a couple c130 gunships going up and down the coast taking out bunkers
Can you launch a C130 from an aircraft carrier?? That's wild lol.
@@habloespwnol2117 with enough JATO I'm sure you could
you could obviously launch them from England. the ac130s have enough fuel and are efficient enough to have done a round trip to Berlin n back
@@habloespwnol2117 Technically, they can, but that was with no load so an AC130 probably wouldn't.
@@sunny-sq6ciFrom Dover, an AC-130 could easily make the trip and back after staying station for hours.
Very few Marines where at D-Day,we where to busy frighting in the South Pacific. The Army had tons of troops in European theater to handle D-Day.
That should be the real plot to this alternate history scenario, some rich marines got pissed off the Army executed largest amphibious operation in history (and that record is unlikely to be broken) so they built a time machine just to make sure this time marines would get the glory. Never again will they suffer humiliation in online arguments, never again will they be one-upped by the Army, now history will show who the real masters of the beach are!!! (cue evil laughter as sparks fly from the time machine and an entire LHA begins to shudder as the portal sucks it back in time).
@@MrMattumbo 😂 what's the Kurt Douglas movie with Martin sheen in it where the Nimitz class goes back in time and could of stopped pearl Harbour?? This could be the marines version of DDay.
@@MrMattumbo This is weird but I had this exact thought 😂😂😂
Thx LS
@@MrMattumbo only one LHA? Come onnnn, we need atleast 6😅
The effect of precision guided weapons and cluster bombs compared with WW2 technology is amazing.
Imagine being those 1940s germans and suddenly all your units start blowing up without warning. As cluster bombs and precision guided bombs and missiles start raining down on you. And you’ve never even thought of weapons like these
It wouldhave been cool to see some A-10's doing their thing in this scenario.
Hans start ze panzer BRRRRRRRR where did he go?
Hans: your puny 30.cal BMG can penetrate my Tiger tank
Rogers: I know but this one can "shows Gau-8"
Hans: "scared German noises"
Those bunkers on the beaches would have stood no chance.
@@droid2478 30 cal what is that
@@droid2478 and can is cannot?idk
I ❤️ the CBUs, CAP's _“German guy on a ‘scooter’ ”_ (Kettenkrad), and RC having plenty of fuel because he didn’t load out every hard-point with the heaviest available ordinance!
lols Ich moechte ein Kettenkrad!!
Would be fun piloting an A-10, finding the Panzer divisions rally points before they went into Belgium for the Bulge, turning Tigers and Panthers into Swiss Cheese.
I just think about how much more effective this could be with satellite, AWACS, and other assorted craft, finding targets and lasing/highlighting them. They did an amazing job spotting these targets without assistance
"You'll need to press a button." That's the insight we expect from Cap! I laughed.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the tight formation flying done by the Reapers? That is both impressive _and_ difficult to do well.
Great video. I don’t know who’s flying it, but at about 53 min there is an A-10 with “SP” on it. I spent 6 years at Spangdahlem and worked on those A-10s. Very cool to see. Lots of great memories.
Jerry on the halftrack bouncing 20mm from the f18 like it was nerf darts had me dying. That and the tiger surviving multiple gbu-12, what a chad.
I could be wrong but I don't think you would have GPS ? unless you brought back all the satellites as well.
True. Laser guided munitions would be fine, as would systems that relied on astro-inertial navigation like ballistic missiles but JDAMs would be unguided without the GPS constellation.
good point
@@trolleriffic JDAMs would rely on their INS guidance, so not totally dumb.
But, what about proximity fuses?
@@carnifexor3010 proximity fuse is what it's name is it detonate when the electromagnetic radiation returned back to the sensor doing some electric thingy and defusing
This is more entertaining than anything that has come out of Hollywood this year
So this is basically a "Final Count Down" scenario just on D-Day instead of Pearl Harbor...Cool.
I would just wonder about the psycological toll that would have on the 1940s era germans. Sure they would be "slightly" aware of jet engines, but not the firepower comeing at them. You would think a sizable portion of them would flee after they see whats happening all around them. Not knowing where this is all coming from. Especially when bunker after bunker is blown up. Just curious on the guys thoughts on that.
Play some Rush
2112
Their bowels would evacuate
Some would report that the Allies (Americans) have some Wondrous secret weapon. Others will claim sabotage by the OSS and few to “improper storage of high explosives” in enclosed, pillbox areas… #theyreeverywhere #runflee
realistically the grunts probably wouldn't notice a huge difference in experience. The main difference is just the accuracy of the munitions from their point of view. Bombs, rockets, and gun runs were all common occurrences. The pilots on the other hand would notice a huge difference between their aircraft and the modern aircraft.
Grump was killin' it with the clusters. So cool.
He does like his USA boom boom
Man the content of these videos never gets old, cranking the volume up on the surround sound during takeoffs literally gives me chills. The sound is spot on!
Kind of amusing that even in this unrealistic scenario, it has to be made even more unrealistic by having the targets just stand around in open fields, when in reality back then they spent a lot of time and effort to concealing every position and every move.
I think just the damage from the air invasion would have broken the German troops fighting spirit. You would have had mass defections as word spread of what was coming. Could have sent a couple dozen A-10’s in and wrecked them as well.
couple dozen? you would only need THREE to completely desimate Germany in 1944
I think air superiority did gave the US an advantage during the iraq war since the iraqi's know that once they have been spotted. They have only a few seconds to run away from their vehicle as it is about to be blown off.
hearing the brrrrrrrt would've made them retreat asap xD
Hans: Doesn't they said to us back at home that we're developing the Wunderwaffe to turn the war? Why do our enemies now use the Wunderwaffe to fight us?
I had a good friend who was an old ex-SAS guy who'd been in British Intelligence and I remember asking him how long the Vermacht would last against modern weaponry without using nukes. He reckoned about 12 hours! Missiles and fast jets with bunker busting bombs plus over-the-horizon radar for anti-ship missiles, its horrendous!
12 hours until we run out of ammo. They had thousands of aircraft, hundreds of ships, thousands of tanks. We dont have thousands of AAMs, ASMs, and AGMs. Eventually you will have to get up close and personal.
They also had chemical weapons.
@@Ironwulf2000 but even when it was completely hopeless Hitler refused to use them...
@@nikolairomanov4496 sounds like a swell guy, what is he known for?
@@nekomoves1714 what exactly are you insinuating? I'm saying as a matter of fact that Hitler would rather kill himself than use chemical weapons and its not realistic to assume that he would use them if pressed by modern weapons rather than old weapons.
That scooter driver deserves an award for bravery. Fortunately, they've got plenty of scrap to melt down to make a medal.
"Really? GBU-12 for a staff car? Really?" lol This has become a new metaphor for me.
Hey, if Col. Stauffenberg had used a GBU-12, Hitler would be dead. There's no such thing as too small a target.
@@Jarsia lol, right. Hey Cap, new video idea: Col. Stauffenberg tries to fit a GBU-12 in his suitcase!
That cluster munition is what you needed to use on the boghammers engagement.
18:10 Epic! those AA gunners never saw that coming! Shock and awe!
Would be interesting doing it again with Cold Wars Jets !!!
And when the apache comes out so maybe an army/airforce version?
F-86's rolling in on artillery would look awesome, as would the dogfights. Not that this doesn't look awesome already in anyway.
Do a modern us/uk vs West Germany with the Soviet's on their side.
Every plane they used was introduced long before the fall of the soviet union and the end of the cold war.
@@benjaminhenrie9335 I think he incorrectly meant Korean war era, because I think of the F-86 first when someone says 'cold war'.
Keep making more of these videos! It is completely awesome to watch. Always brings me awe and gives me a smile on my face the entire video!
A fun hour of sealclubbing :-D
F-16 is such a nice plane that when they first came out a famous artist saw one and was convinced it was a drawing from another artist. Turns it ended up looking the way it did purely do to science lol. They look really clean even fully wingloaded. I recently read an account of a f-16 pilot that had a practice 2v2 mockup with 2 f-18s, the f-16 lost its leader 5 seconds after the merge, the guy turned the wrong way, and the other f-16 was able to 2v1 the f-18s and win. In a visual range fight there really deadly. Idk if this games modeled to have them perform the way they do caus of the blackouts. Theyre fast, can hold a turn better, and can sustain 9 gs no problem. F-18s have better yaw and some better nose authority. But a good f-16 pilot is deadly, with the new tech there throwing into them there going to be lethal i imagine the block 72's.
f-16s continue to be, to me, the most planey plane ever
just straight up The Plane Ever
simply Such A Plane
@@aurus7245 Ya i agree
I think this may call for some videos on "Things to consider when operating modern units in a non-GPS environment." Settings that might make a difference, choice of weapons, navigation and waypoints, what navigational aids are available (e.g., mobile TACANs,), etc.
Useful info for any "cross-tech" scenario.
So true.
@Steve Wolcott Yes, but that's the real Air Force, not sim flyers on DCS. Does DCS simply assume GPS is available for modern units? What would work differently and need to be done differently GPS it wasn't available, such as taken out by asats or more fanciful Final Countdown-style scenarios? That's why I was suggesting the topic.
@@emperorkalan you’d need a compass and a stopwatch just like the RAF did back in the day. You’d plot your route out on a map before takeoff, work out how long it would take you to fly between waypoints at certain speeds, then face your heading and time yourself on that heading before turning to your new heading. That’s mainly for night flying, you’d use visual landmarks during the day.
Great work a fun experiment. Thank you valued viewer, good suggestion.
15:28 - F-16's, Were you trying to hold hands?
That's just a little close.
58:12 Pz.... "The force is strong with this one."
Cap, when you started with Churchill's speech, it reminded me of Iron Maiden's Aces High. Now I have that tune stuck in my head! Thanks Cap!!! LOL!!!
Those JSOWs were legit!
New Call sign for whoever keeps saying, “Yeehaw let it rain”, is Howdy Doodee.
This looks like an excellent mission to practice ground strikes. If I ever get my flight Sim equipment back, I'd love to just go crazy bombing ground targets.
Excellent done, guys. Was definitely fun to watch.
Where did your equipment go, if I may ask?
You guys should of turned on some ME109's and ME626's to make it a little challenging. Talley Ho! It's a great video, I can tell you guys really like playing these scenarios.
It was stormy on June 6th. That alone makes a massive difference regardless of technology level.
This video shows the unbelievable value of guided weapons.
Also shows off the incredible advantage of advanced air-to-ground targeting systems. Even dropping the same dumb bomb they could have had in ww2 from a modern aircraft, turns it into a precision one shot one kill weapon!
@@angelarch5352 Spot on. Something like the F-16 which is mainly though of as a fighter is also a superb bombing platform and can put iron bombs on target with accuracies that WW2 bombers could only dream of (as well as being better than a lot of modern strike aircraft).
And one of the best ingame montages i ever saw. It really feels like interesting war movie. Thank you for your work.
"Oh... i screwed that up." lol, literally the LAST shit you wanna hear during mission brief..
Clear the ready room, start over 🤣
I think that was the best landing I've seen Cap perform... You should land without slats every time
agree. Lightweight.
This is neat, thanks you all for doing this and sharing it!
Cool video, I love it. That being said, there would not even be an Overlord if such tech was available to the Allies back then. A done or cruise missile strike in Berlin to take out Hitler and the Nazi leadership and that would have been it.
Thank you for this, I loved it.
Guys you are truly badasses to redo history like that - I love it !
as soon as you mentioned A 10's i burst out laughing, snot came out I swear.
A "Free Britney' mission. Obviously Cap & the GR are all about freeing Britney.
Heh, I'm up for it!
boys, press f in memory of that grid square
Great operation guys! And since you were attacking father up north then in reality maybe they were better prepared also they could have detected the flux in the time with their "super science" and were waiting for future troops to come to invade.
1:16:50 if you had been somehow able to communicate to the Air assets that the Grim Reapers had captured a Tiger I Tank then it would have saved a whole lot of ordinance and maybe turned it into a certified Battlefield Style Moment with Airborne Infantry pushing along side it with death raining from above.
Excellence yet again lads.
When the f/a-18 with the blue color scheme shot the Unguided rockets it sounded like the sonic boom is Star Wars episode 2
"We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender..."
--Winston Churchill
(Seeing how he was trying to do the quote)
Action packed and very entertaining :3
Listening to this with my headphones at full blast because the aircraft sound so good
That was a great way to waste 1hr 20 mins. Thank you GR’s! 🇨🇦 Vet
Believe it or not the German 88mm AA guns were affective to 32,000 Feet (10,000 meters).
wow!
I came across this channel totally be accident, great viewing, something I thought I would never watch.
Welcome Sir!
If anything im surprised the german defenses held as well as they did, between the heavy tank armor and surprise 88s.
Man, these vids must take so much work!
That was absolutely fantastic well done.....
People need to subscribe to this guy, he needs that ad rev for some better non glitchy software and equipment lol love this kinda Content man, keep it up
Broadstairs , is acctually Manston or Ramsgate airports.
An Assault Carrier would be useful here. Fielding an entire flight of Cobras packing Hydra rockets and Hellfires would make CAS MUCH easier.
*Thanks for posting this informative video. Liked & subcribed!*
i just discovered these videos. Love them
Why this remind me Movie The Final Countdown (I wish they will do more like this >:3 )
Awesome idea from the person who suggested this!
Good job on the major parts.. Let the Helos do the final clean up. Should of use AH-1 Vipers. Great Video!
This is some next level Gate type stuff.
Wow through a DAC with Audio-Technica YES
d day with modern targeting would be a lot less bloody for the allies, the main reason the american landings were much more deadly than the rest of the allied forced is because air attack missed their targets, not disabling a big chunk of german defenses
That BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP from the A-10 is frightening.
Ok the Justice League came back on time to level things up against the Vandall Savage Germany.
Good Job!! You guys really sent them to Valhalla!!
You guys should do this again on a bigger scale and add some of the new tech just for the heck of it! Love your channel!
A Tiger 1 is sort of a Panzer 6 going by the alternative number scheme.
Tiger 6... is that a Leopard?!
Seal teams with sniper rifles and night vision glasses then after a week you just walk ashore.
I will never miss these videos.
29:57 seismic charge inbound
10/10 on the Harrier landing. "That won't be cut out." 😆😆😆
Pretty sure I just watched an episode of the big Bang Theory with Leonard Hochsteder
The Battle of Kursk …. But with Russian gear against the Germans ?????
Or, try and save Pearl Harbor
The battle of Guadalcanal with Harriers
This could be a whole play list …. Fight WW2 with modern tech.
Those cbu-105s are terrifying...ly effective!!! 😲
Grump squawking 1337 made the oldschool nerd in me happy. It's the little things
lol
I'm gonna assume the Kublewagen that caught that Paveway bomb with its teeth was carrying Field Marshal Model.
I wonder why the Mk-15 tail on the MK82 did not deploy from the AV8B drop?
You could try the aborted strike mission from the film "The Final Countdown"
Great video
love it. hmmmm.. maybe a "marianas turkey shoot" a'la 2021?
The Corps wasn't at D-Day, the Army was.
Largest amphibious landing in military history. Zero Marines present.
Very cool looking game. Great vid. o7
are there any full on fulda gap cold war setups? each decade between 45 and 85 would be super cool.... especially if ground forces and tactical nukes were a thing just to imagine how that would work
This was actually a great mission!
I really wanna get into this game but have no idea where to start. I'm not a stranger to flight Sims I mean I play warthunder but I wanna take the experience to the next lvl and go full on immersion flight stick and maybe vr headset. Was thinking of getting logitech x56 hotas. Heard the learning curb is steep but hey so was elite dangerous learning curb and I'm doing pretty good in that game. Any advice guys?
Get a flight stick, joy stick (you can even use an XBOX control of you want). Download DCS (it’s free). Practice with the SU-25T (also free). If you like it and want more then start looking investing more then do so. We all started small. - Starscream
Y'all were missing the D=day stripes. That would have been cool.
Nice formating, Cap
20:15 - 20:30 . Nothing but 88 chunks and supporting vehicles. wow the carnage
