Only Taff... give a pilot a plane with bombs, rockets, and cannons and he tries to decapitate the AAA gun crew with his propeller!
Blimey Trofim, how on earth he didn't take that German AA crew's heads off with the prop I'll never know! 😲 💀 Good mission though, keep up the great work Taff 👍 🏅 🏴
You don't always need bullets comrade!
And some people thought "using all available resources" was just a phrase xD
Taff, can you adjust your guns convergence? Maybe from 300m to around 450-500m? I think that would help when attacking ground targets without getting too close.
Thank you Taff for the quality entertainment. I appreciate your effort to make such great videos. The algorithm may not make you a millionaire, but you've achieved a million laughs from me. Counts in my book! ^-^
Congratulations on the promotion; thoroughly well deserved!
Flight lead...way to go skipper!
Finally, a mission outcome to provide a much-needed boost in morale for the squadron. Well done! Just guessing here, but I suspect a slightly steeper attack angle would make it easier to aim the rockets and canons accurately, even though it would give you less time to line up the target. To gain the extra altitude and longer time needed, maybe try extending a little further before turning around for another attack run. And remember the lesson I never learned: if it doesn't look spot on, don't pull the trigger; abort and go around for another try. Nothing wastes ammo faster than hope. Man, I'm just full of it today, huh?
Alternatively, light up the target with your cannon's & drop bombs on the enemy corpses like Taff, lol
In all seriousness, though, probably shouldn't be trying to strafe & drop bombs in the same run. You'll probably either miss &/or waste ammo, plus being distracted is an easy way to accidentally turn into a pancake
Taff's drive-by haircuts, don't flinch!
...as the crew chief complains, bitterly, about all the shrubbery he must clean out of Taffinsky's rocket racks. 😀
Great video Taff keep up the good work!
I personally really like the ground attack videos over the dogfighting ones
Not just ground attack, but I second the notion. These series' almost always devolve into only/primarily dogfights, which is boring
Great video!! Thank you!!!
Them low passes have got to go Skipper Taff....my nerves cannot take it ha ha.
Pulling up straight would at least give your tail gunner a chance to hit the targets that your missing !
15:41 - NOW would be the time to transfer out. There are many more pilots than planes, so you wouldn't be missed. There may be other units with more planes than pilots, who could really use the services of a Hero of the Soviet Union.
Maybe it would be better to launch the rockets in one big volley? :) Increase the likelyhood of hitting one important thing.
I would like to see the LA5 or the Yak1
Targeting with rockets is difficult. I´m quite good with bombs and cannons, but with rockets I´m in trouble to hit a barn.
Another good one. how do you keep them going. Great job.
The 1942 just feels soooo heavy with a tail gunner. I usually dont take it because of that. I do like the 132 rockets much more than the 82 because the 132s can kill anything and they make a bigger boom.
👍🏴
Rockets are absolutely iffy. I found that it would be better to fire from higher altitude in a salvo of 3 or 4 for each target at a greater AoA.
Will you do anymore JU-87 runs?
Watching ground attack missions is like watching paint dry. I miss the dogfights.
Those rockets are not an easy aim
