      Therefore it wpuld be reasonable to assume that the G-Man is seeking to destroy the Combine for some unexplained reasons.
      This ties in very well into the theory that the G-Man is hatched Shu'ulathoi or a Nihilanth

      There are no "big forces". There are technologies, genetics and an inflexible control system aimed at seizing control, genocide and assimilation of living forms into the Combine army in a specific area to attract its units in other operations. This is a hive where soldiers have no motivation if there is no control.

    My one complaint is that the Combine ships don't look like Combine ships, they look like generic sci-fi alien spaceships with Combine logos painted on. Also the modern fighters seem out of place for the early 2000s. Other than that, this is one of the most creative depictions of the Seven Hour War I've seen, especially since it gives the human militaries an actual fighting chance against the Combine.

    • @trainenthusiast5199
      @trainenthusiast5199 9 місяців тому

      The ships may not look like Combine ships exactly, but they kinda give you a sense of how advanced the Synths were.
      As for the fighters...it kinda makes sense due in part to the advanced tech you see in Black Mesa. They even possibly had signed a contract with the US military.

    Also I love the intro with the piano music and planes crashing. And the music throughout the video fits well. It's kinda like the combine and humanity are both technologically advanced in their own way.

    Great animation, loved every second of it! I do have a few criticisms though:
    1. The Su-57 was introduced in 2020.
    2. The F-35 was introduced in 2006.
    3. The J-20 was introduced in 2017.
    The resonance cascade happened in either 2003 or 2004, so these aircraft would not have been in service at the time. I would've picked the following aircraft instead:
    1. Su-37
    2. F-22/F-16/F-15
    3. J-11/Su-27 (Basically same aircraft. The J-11 is a Chinese licensed Su-27.)
    Additionally, a cargo plane like that would not just be flying straight into a hot AO. Rather, if a large plane like that would be used, it would likely be an E-3 Sentry AWACS, providing almost perfect radar contacts for the jets in the area from far outside the AO.
    Also, the A-10 is far outside its usefulness here. An F-15,14, or 16 would do a better job, and there'd likely be multiple. Even despite all this, I loved the animation thoroughly! :)

    Since the russian fighter got intercepted, all i was waiting for was a cobra maneuver.

    • @snark894
      @snark894 Рік тому

      That maneuver is actually called the Falling Leaf! It's one of my favorites, even if it would never be practical in real-world combat. The Cobra maneuver is actually just where you're going really fast, and then pull up on the stick such that the aircraft pitches up by 90 degrees, causing it to slow. Then, you pitch back down. It's sometimes used for carrier landings on planes not designed for carriers, or in combat/combat exercises to quickly lose speed and force the enemy to overshoot. The reason the falling leaf is less practical is because it puts your own plane out of action for too long, and opens you up to missile hits far more than a cobra maneuver. :D

    First of all: RF military bases look different. Without a directive from your superiors, you have almost no right to do anything. At night, almost everyone sleeps. Except for base security, of course. The runway of the military base is larger than in the video, they fly out in groups, first one and then the others in turn, in the air they stay in groups of 3-5 planes when there are no enemy forces. And almost no one flies at night. Russian military bases are somewhere even better than US military bases.
    Secondly: Pilots are oriented almost exclusively by hardware and fly very high in the sky. There are no cases that they keep track of where the enemy is just by looking out the window of the airplane. And RF planes are much faster than the enemy's "air and space" forces.

    That is vary far from how a SU-57 works. You didnt even add thrust vectoring

      This animation is quite stupid in lots of details, somehow SU-57 and J-20 is more maneuverable than hi-tech alien aircraft, somehow a fucking a-10 that has 30mm cannon as main armament needs a few passed to down a single strider, somehow SU-57 pilot was not turned into pancake together with his aircraft during a flat spin crash.
      And don't get me started on destruction of entire alien carrier by a single missile
