    It's been stated before by others - but really appreciating the exposed thought process and the emphasis on the "WHY" aspect behind the various systems and their employment. Gives you the ability to adapt these concepts to what is usually a unique circumstance. Another great video for the 16! Mooooooooooooore!

    This content is great i've never seen anyone do this much technique to get an advantage against ground targets all i saw before and did before was look at my hsd find a sam site and try to bomb it without any preparation i just went there while staying low and tried bombing it without any getting rid of closer sam systems and this is way better than what i did before it really helps i hope more people see your content it is amazing watched every single one of your videos today without getting bored once and it gave me lots of great info

    "HTS it cannot triangulate... Does not have 2 sensors..." Triangulation is the exact way (beside phase shift) how HTS is working. You have infinite number of sensors when you are moving. Each measurements of the signal phase shift on the antennas of HTS gives you bearing. Those measurements are than triangulated over time as your aircraft os changing position. This is why the accuracy for position estimation of radar emissions is increasing over time.
    Great video BTW. To the point!

    The sun is a great unused reference I always make it a reference point when I have no time to remember certain headings and I flew around alot so I got disoriented. So before it gets hot I note to myself the sun is on my right when Im going in and it would be to my left if I wanted to go back to safety/egress/RTB etc.

    Exactly what I've been looking for. Weaseling requires technique that is hard to come by.
    BTW you can edit the HARM table to include the threats you want or use the HAD to hand-off with PGM2 or 1.

    Stumbled onto your channel, though much of this isn't 'new' to me, I'm picking up great little tips to improve my tactics.
    TMS-right on the HAD should cycle between emitter targets, might be easier then futzing with the HARM tables (even a custom one).

  • @Corsair8X
    @Corsair8X 2 роки тому +5

    IIRC you can use TMS left to switch tables if the harm page is soi but you will still have to then select the radar still. As someone else wrote you can create a custom table but it’s a little painful to do on the fly, even from a safe area.
    I’ve lost count how many useful things I’ve learned from this single video. Right now I’m using a technique of lobbing WCMDs at a sam site from down low - which is a little wasteful if the various units are really spread out from each other.

    These videos are great. Thank you! For the last engagement, could you not load the id code for the Tor into table 1 as well to at least save a click and some mousing around?
    After thinking about it, if you redid table 1 and 2 to put the desired types in the first OSB slot, you could use the Hotas to flip tables and it would auto select the first position.
    Please don’t ruin another vid with such a violent landing 😂

    Good video, but why would you use Mavericks instead of harms? Is it because you can carry 3 mavs on one pylon?

    • @germantomcat
      @germantomcat 8 місяців тому +2

      Ok now I know why. You have way more mavs, yes, but harms are for sead and mavs/cbu105s for dead(destruction of enemy air defences). Most of the time 4 cbu105s are the best.

    SA-6 + SA-15 (TOR) is not that hard since you can basically fly above it. The TOR becomes a huge pain when paired with a long range SAM like the S300 (SA-10). Can't HARM or JSOW it. Have to hug the ground all the way till min range.

  • @veteran35th
    @veteran35th Рік тому

    @scheerlon Рік тому

    still, sometimes I loose sync between maverick and TPD and cant get it back (mav does not react to TPD movements anymore).
    Also, when I aim at something with my TPD , dive, get close and want to shoot the Mav, it is not on target (somewhere near instead)
    Somebody got an idea? ..

  • @janhruska4471
    @janhruska4471 Рік тому

    This all you told us is nice. But mostly only to the point where you face SkyNet IADS script controlled SAM network of properly layered SAM systems. Unless you are over water, you newer know what's hiding bellow you or what you mistakenly thought is safe area. Then, the guy who pressed the red button will have good noisy laugh watching you in flames.

    • @janhruska4471
      @janhruska4471 Рік тому

      Behind FEBA there is no safe area to maneuver unless ground units will advance and clear that area from any possible ground-to-air threats, shifting FEBA forward. All CAS FW or RW aircrafts operating bellow 15k AGL behind FEBA should be equipped with detection of IR missiles. But all pilots are in danger there. It's a responsibility of JTAC, to minimize chance of losses.

    Any extra concern if there is an SA-10 with an SA-15? Have you tried using the ECM pod in barrage mode? I found that sometimes the ECM pod does too good of a job when performing a popup attack. Sometimes the HARM has nothing to guide on.

    • @neilharrah7365
      @neilharrah7365 2 роки тому +2

      I learned that with SA-15s, if you do a really low attack near minimum range of the HARM, the SA-15 doesn’t have time to react. I found this out doing low level attacks on SAMs accompanied by SA-15s. So you could just hit the radar on the SA-10 and then climb and bomb the SA-15 or you could hit the 15 with another HARM.

    • @sasquatchycowboy5585
      @sasquatchycowboy5585 2 роки тому

      @@neilharrah7365 That's how I like to do it. Usually use 4 HARMs and just ripple them off. The SA-15 can only target two missiles at a time. And like you said once the big missiles are gone you get high.

    • @ImperiumLibertas
      @ImperiumLibertas Рік тому +2

      Irl to destroy a SA-10 & SA-15 site you'd have multiple ships sending decoys, glide munitions, and harms for a TOT attack.
      You may get lucky doing a pop up but really a SA-10 + SA-15 is a modern threat that requires modern tools to take out.
      I also have had luck with toss bombing using the HST + TGP with clusters.
