Superior flying and management of your aircraft. Very impressive flying through the city. Your #2 appeared to not have much altitude when avoiding SAM launch, guess I was wrong. Definitely enjoyed your flight recovery on the carrier.
fairTX they are tons of fun to play once you learn everything. Its a bit daunting at first, but the network is leagues better than tarkov... if you ever take it up and want a mentor just hit me up.
Beautiful flying mate! Myself and a wingy are practicing, trying to get to that level. The breaking against fire and formation flying was especially amazing, bloody great SA!
I wish I had the alpha of a hornet Living to fight slow when others scorn it When I can still pitch and roll That other guy's going out of control I wish I had the alpha of a hornet
Well, aside from the fact that the Hornet carries the typical 20mm Vulcan, I wouldn't call what the Hornet carries "lots of fuel". xD The Flanker has roughly double the internal fuel capacity and more than double the effective range/mission radius of the Hornet. Even with 3 fuel tanks, the Flanker still carries more than half a ton(metric) more fuel *internally.* ;)
SD501st I think you misunderstood. The verses go: I wish I had: A gun just like the A-10 8 AMRAAMs like the Eagle The gas just like a Mud Hen The alpha of a Hornet The Flanker (kinda) has all of those things.
carrier pattern and landing still need work! that ingress was intense though! nice job avoiding all that stuff! that sneaky overtake into the 'canyon' of buildings was nice too!
Not trying to talk smack, but it's so refreshing to see a video from you. You guys are sharp as hell unlike other DCS'ers. My only gripe is you don't put out enough content, but hey when you do it's like crack cocaine! Thanks for the upload Ralfi.
That was absolutely fantastic. That approach through the city was incredible. Dodging that first SAM was super cool, such a great job staying together and comms. Again again!!
2 questions. Were you deploying Mk82 Snake eyes? If yes, does CCIP automatically calculate for the increased drag, or do you have play with the stores page?
Nice to see you using the plane to what degree you can so far with it being Alpha. I found it pretty weird that they have yet to put IFF in....made for a bad surprise in a quick mission I did lol.
Could argue that those manpads shouldn't have missed. There is an IR problem with F/A-18Cs at the moment where even the Su-27's IRST cannot pick it up despite rear aspect afterburning and mk1 eye ball tally, you have to be very close < 5km to track. Will get fixed tho.
From what I understand "Fox 2" and so on are names of different types of missiles. What I'm wondering though is why it's important to mention it? Is it so that you don't accidentally do something and get the missile on your teammate or something? (like heatseeking missiles)
Bjørnar Magnussen because IR missiles are very different from radar missiles not only do they require different countermeasures to be used but they have different ranges and speed
I wonder if it bothers navy flyers as much as I think it would that we're still using angled decks. I mean, I get why to some extent, so it's not a question of logic, just gotta be fucking annoying I bet. Also, I'm pretty convinced Hellreign82 is actually Scat in disguise. You've been made, Scat!
3:46 damn that was tense
I swear it was tracking my flight lead... until it wasn't.
drewski for all "scientific" purposes please get the f14 for dcs, i dare you not to get a semi when you hear the mighty cat.
Ralfi I think you’re the first person to ever complain about the Hornet being too fast
Joe Phish Nope, Myself and the wingy agree... It's too energy efficient! :D Love it for it.
All that means is that you can save some gas by pulling the throttles back further than you normally would in a tight turn fight :)
i dont mind her pace but she definately doesnt like being slow
@@aus_geoff8668 that's interesting because I've heard real pilots say that it's very sluggish, especially with ordnance
I mean what isn't?
That first half was some Star Wars shit, breddy gud.
Does anyone else watch DCS videos and turn their head to look around from force of habbit?
Dammit! Yes!
I thought it was just me lol
me too.. glad to see I am not alone
its even worse when you're still trying to save up n get the flight gear!! uggh!
Oh yeah. Doesn't even have to be DCS. I do it for any POV flight video
Pull the paddle, it removes the 7.5 G-Limit and would have helped with the overspeed chasing that MiG.
The lag pursuit was beautiful though!
Cheers Ralfi, glad to see you uploading again!
I could watch you guys play DCS all day!!! You 2 are awesome!
He has streams, you should go take a look

Dude these vids are so satisfying to watch. Never played DCS tho, looks intimidating :D
fairTX they are tons of fun to play once you learn everything. Its a bit daunting at first, but the network is leagues better than tarkov... if you ever take it up and want a mentor just hit me up.
The nice thing is, you can work and learn at your own pace, and above all, it IS fun!
Hell yes!!!! My two favorite DCS jocks, Ralfi and Hellreign in a vid together!! I love it!!
Beautiful flying mate! Myself and a wingy are practicing, trying to get to that level. The breaking against fire and formation flying was especially amazing, bloody great SA!
Ralfi I need more! Your flying is so much more enjoyable to watch than my own flying.
I wish I had the alpha of a hornet
Living to fight slow when others scorn it
When I can still pitch and roll
That other guy's going out of control
I wish I had the alpha of a hornet
cus we're single seat and multirole, we can fly right up our own asshole; yeah all you fuckers wish you flew the Viper
You know, thinking about that song and its verses:
-30mm gun
-Lots of BVR missiles
-Lot of fuel
-Great alpha
...Flanker?

that landing was the icing on the cake too perfect
Nice to see my both favourite pilots flyin' together
carrier pattern and landing still need work! that ingress was intense though! nice job avoiding all that stuff! that sneaky overtake into the 'canyon' of buildings was nice too!

When will see another good flight with Linebacker?
never, he's gone
ralfidude wat..... what happened?
Did you guys have a falling out? Or something worse?
i think he joined the airforce
ralfidude oh. But he was hilarious. You guys seemed to get along pretty well.
This was beautiful. Something to showcast to people who haven't dared trying DCS yet. Thank you very much for all your content Ralfi!
That was absolutely fantastic. That approach through the city was incredible. Dodging that first SAM was super cool, such a great job staying together and comms.
Again again!!
Easily the most panic-inducing run in to a target I've ever seen.
Beautiful colors, beautiful mission, beautiful flying! Congrats for both of you.
AWESOME video. Man this one had everything in it. Got some work to do on your carrier landings though! But hey, I'm right there with you.
This was so enjoyable to watch. Clean. Well done
That just kept getting better.
That AAA fire on the deck made me pucker up a bit.....
That carrier landing. ❤️
Beautiful flying, boys!
Were those submarines to the left of the Carrier?
Speed boats :)
4:33
Dude, my heart skipped when you looked back when dodging all the buildings!
That's some good skillz
two of the best pilots in DCS world
I half expected the landing minigame from the NES Top Gun to show up at the end.
Chaff/Flare only works with Master Arm on, just FYI in case you didn't know
Yeah we figured that out later.
You guys are good, really good. You form a great combat team.
Damn it Ralfi!!! You just got back and only a 13 min video?? All in good fun. Good to have you back.
ralfi your outros are genius
Awesome! Man, this map is BEAUTIFUL! Holy Moly! =D
I fucking flinched when that missile banked into you at 3:50
2 questions. Were you deploying Mk82 Snake eyes? If yes, does CCIP automatically calculate for the increased drag, or do you have play with the stores page?
Clayton Binder Those would have been retarded, yes. As long as they’re recognized in your stores CCIP will adjust
As i said to Hellreign on his channel : 2 aces @ the same mission. Good work Ralfi 👍👍
Is it me or do the missile just look fucking amazing in this new update they seem so much more pretty when they are tracking scary but pretty
Clean friggin execution goddamn
So close to the water on that dive
VMF 232!! Used to be VMSB 232 and my grandfather served with them in WWII!
One of your best vids man!
Nice to see you using the plane to what degree you can so far with it being Alpha. I found it pretty weird that they have yet to put IFF in....made for a bad surprise in a quick mission I did lol.
I love your content Ralfi, can't wait to learn the '18 myself and see you in the sky!

Gotta love the NAVY and their CAG birds. About the only color remaining in US military.
Hellreign82 sounds like a younger Scatman
Thank you, super vidéo
Sick video guys, great coordination. Now I wish I was as good as you two
Nicely done fellas. Glad to see you made it back for tea & medals :-)
Great piloting.
THIS. IS. AWESOME!!! ♥
Flawless
Yes , very nice landing!
Is Hellreign82 actually Scat from some of the older videos? Or am I just confused?
Ditto'ing that voice recognition. Sounds like Scat. Looks like his formation flying has improved some, if so.
I was just thinking the same thing. Sounds just like him.
while he does sound a ton like sgat i think sgat had a deeper voice looking back at older vids
That's racist. Not all British people sound the same.
As a Scotsman, I wholeheartedly agree
Yo ralfi, you and line gonna do some sorties together soon? I miss those videos
Great mission guys!
JESUS I could’ve sworn that side shot in the first 10 seconds was an actual photo...
DCS 2.5 is beautiful.
4:18 Now *this* is podracing!
Good kill on the second MiG there! Little low on the final though. Lost the ball there....
Beautiful!
Nice 🔥🔥🔥
fqin best video i ever seen in 10 years
That was some high quality shit right there. Love it
At 4:42 mins into the video, I am already clicking on the "like" button :)
great video!!!

Bjørnar Magnussen because IR missiles are very different from radar missiles not only do they require different countermeasures to be used but they have different ranges and speed
But why does pilot A need to tell pilot B that? Doesn't hurt I guess, I just wondered if there was a reason I couldn't think of.
I always thought planes hit full throttle after touchdown in case the hook doesn't catch, so they can lift back up immediately.
which I did
ralfidude didn't notice 😢
During the trap, I thought, "Maybe this will be the one thing that Ralfi isn't good at."
Then later, "Nope."
Mighty fine video you have here
ty Ralfie for the video! takecare!
Best video
My boy
dope
Before Hellreign started doing that godawful "badass" voice..
Amazing (As always)
I'm surprised DCS used the old C model as apposed to the more developed super bug.
declassified information
Grzegorz Brzeczyszczykiewicz XD
Awesome mission!!
Nice flying
Well done!
Does anyone know what he he uses to look around in the cockpit? (TrackIR, Headtracking Software, ect.)
track IR 5
Thanks!
Beautiful carrier landing
Could you do a video showing your setup and where you place your HOTAS and keyboard etc.?
Combatsmithen well i got a new hotas system so ill be showing a lot soon
Cool
I am hard as fucking diamonds right now after that landing =D
Great video mate!
nice dive lads
that is fucking cool x)
ralfidude, I would love to know what/where your intro sound effects are from.
-FineV
Ghost in the shell TV show OST
That plane is so fucking sexy
I take it Hell is the one with red tails and marines?? Love the skin.
Aww yiss carrier landings
finally you upload again ralfi i missed you
Where can I hook up with you? Would love to fly with you guys.
Are you using the TM WARTHOG HOTAS or a different hotas?
tm
Awesome. Thank you.
