Man, I love these mission based videos, especially with the Raptor and other modern airplanes and equipment. Highly entertaining. Keep up the awesome content, GS!
He should have said “this little piggy went to market” like when some cartoon character is unwrapping another character’s fingers from the branch it’s holding on to LOL
GS sneaking up on people and checking out their loadouts in the 22 is one of my favourite things. Really enjoying the operational content! It's nice to have slower burn stuff than the dogfights and 1v1s.
yah if only they made sense... a single f22 that cant carry air to surface munitions and 2 SR-72 darkstars that also cant carry Air to surface munitions as one is an air supremacy fighter and the other is a spy plane... Instead they would just have 5 F/a-18s launch about 20 LRASM's and fly away...
As always, I appreciate the mission-based content! Good stuff! Imagine doing all that, only to be greased by an Mi-8 door gunner... That would have been something. LOL
Just thinking about strategy; would it have made a more intense outcome if the F-18s had split into a forward and aft group? The forward group fires first, then 5-10 minutes later the second group dispatches their harpoons. While the carrier escorts are busy defending the first group of harpoons, the stealth AGMs hit and disable all the escorts. The escorts are now unable to defend the second group of harpoons, putting more ordinance on the carrier. Just a thought.
It never gets old seeing GS sneak up on enemy fighters with the F-22 and the fact that this is based off of what the Air Force is willing to release to the public makes the F-22 probably more terrifying in actual combat. Plus seeing him sneak up oon those two J-11s at the beginning of the video reminded me of the time that 2 F-22s snuck up on 2 Iranian F-4 phantoms, looked at their armaments and ttold them to go home. Also I'm questioning whether what GS did to that AWACS requires a review of the Geneva convention 😂😂.
@@Joseph_HamiltonNone, that's my point. Welfare state requires resources that empires invest into military forces and influence. The US has a modicum of welfare due to the ravages of the Great Depression but it's heavily privatized and far from EU standards. Russia is a joke and so is China. With the difference that Russia's military is heavily underperforming due in no small part to corruption and China's is untested (and heavily corrupted too).
Surprised there weren't any E/A-18Gs in the mix, because those could help with both the AWACs and ship based radar situation and and make the F-22 even more imbalanced on top. I suppose that would even be more lopsided than this scenario.
Whenever I see you sneak up behind some random enemies with the Raptor and get close enough for guns, I shake my head at people saying guns on a fighter is pointless. Saved the taxpayers some missiles with those guns kills.
Realistically speaking, AWACS has long range jamming-resistant transmitters and would alert every Chinese citizen on the planet (well, not quite, but the carrier gorup and fleet HQ for sure) when shot at so some minutes later the whole PLA would be after you
You clearly have such a pleasure in sneaking up on folks with your Raptor. I can't help that video of yours, when you were looking for a Raptor yourself, and happened to catch it your rearview mirror, immediately to your left 😁😁

Sir your videos are much better than anything on TV. I am so glad you did that Maverick stuff around the time of the second Top Gun film. That’s how I found you and boy howdy what a fun ride it’s been! Keep it up sir! Loving these F22 v the world fights!
Gah damn this was friggin amazing GS! I especially loved that view at 15:54 . This whole mission was spectacular, definitely moved to the favorites of all time list!
"I gave them time to get out. So, they should be thanking me." Yeah, after you snuck up on their flying radar dish in a plane with an RCS of a bee and clipped their engines one-by-one.
Lucky guys in the AWACS, they survive long enough to get eaten by sharks. That whole scenario reminds of a kid who enjoys ripping the wings off of flies.
What a great video! Absolutely love the sneaking up under the J-20's at the beginning to get a nice close look at their loadout before gun-killing the first one.. Heh!! Seriously, these big mission based videos are really awesome, and seeing the Darkstars make a nice cameo appearance is like icing on the cake! Thanks for this!!
Damn just imagine flying with your buddy thinking your sneaking up on a group of fighters. Only to see a streak of bullets fly through his cockpit and he doesn’t eject before slamming into the sea.
Could you imagine flying near the Karman line in an SR-72 realizing you're flying higher than any other person in the battlespace and you're virtually untouchable? Just delivering death whenever, wherever, with impunity. And the AWACS? How mad would you be when you realized the F22 is just messing with you at that point?
I'm not a military person, but from what I understand. Larger easily killable targets, get taken out by most likely F15s. Their cover tends to be the more expensive F 35s, and the beast of the sky's F 22
I mean, for this mission it was just a truck to deliver the LRASMs. Didnt matter if it was going mach 9 or mach 4, he can tell us whatever he wants lol
yeah, realistically if you dumped an AGM-158 into mach 9.0 wind the RAM coating would burn off before the wings could pop out, and then the rest of the missile would follow quickly
So, if we’re using the Harpoons as fodder for the LRASMs, what would happen if the roles were reversed using the LRASM to cripple the ships and allow the Harpoons to come in and finish the fleet off?
Just stumbled on this channel and game. The skill is insane. Sneaking up on pilots to check their load out is the biggest flex. If this game is anything like real life, boy does it make me happy to be Canadian knowing this is what our brothers down south are packing. The F22 is an absolute beast.

Can you make a video of the Syrian Air Force vs. F-22s?
Didn't your Mom tell you "Don't play with your food"? One would think you're having wayyyyy to much fun in the Raptor. 😅
Broooo you gotta 1v1 Max Afterburner, will be epic!
Day 70 of asking for su35 vs f36
The door gunner in that helicopter was like 20 feet away from becoming an absolute legend.
Why was he shooting Tracer Rounds though 😂
@@IndoSB To see where he was shooting

That chopper got Gazaed lol
The Raptor is really causing GS's intrusive thoughts to get increasingly louder

“Captain, something shot you down, what was it?? If it was powerful enough to take down the 22 were in trouble”
“Uuuhhhh, a helicopters door gunner……..”

He sure tried!

I agree 💯💪🇺🇲
I concur
The helo crash view from close-up, down under is awesome. Any we get to replay it !
Glad to see the Darkstar making an appearance once again.
Which jet is dark star?
@meram4473 the ones in space that fired the stealth anti ship missiles.
As soon as I heard “I wonder how many engines…” I instantly knew what was going to happen 😂😂
He should have said “this little piggy went to market” like when some cartoon character is unwrapping another character’s fingers from the branch it’s holding on to LOL
Every AWACS kill is like adding ice cream to pie
Does the damage model for AWACS allow you to pick off the radar dome, making for a mission kill?
Honestly it was just playing with your food at that point
He let the crew bail out. It was the noble thing to do
Raptor’s in rear-view mirror are closer than they appear 😮
Look out.
GS sneaking up on people and checking out their loadouts in the 22 is one of my favourite things.
Really enjoying the operational content! It's nice to have slower burn stuff than the dogfights and 1v1s.
It’s historical
"You really oughta go home" Oops I just sunk your home.
What were the two jets he snuck up on? I couldn't tell
Raptor sneaking on enemy planes just never gets old.
Love joining enemy formations and being like Kenobi "hello there". Followed a pair of MiG 29s for nearly their entire patrol.
and never get real :D
@@jukosdainamikos4050 If you're implying that it's never happened; search up the 2013 Raptor's intercept of two Iranian F-4 phantoms
That helicopter deserved to survive :D Guy was fighting tooth and nail :D
if people who type "first" were a missile they would be a sparrow
Ohh, fox 1
Why can't they be bluebirds or robbins.... Or coyotes? Everyone always wants to be a sparrow, a fox, or harpoon. Gheesh.
😂
Nah….they would write 7th 😅
They'd actually be 3rd about 90% of the time.
Lol
More mission based videos like this whenever you can. It gives it way more dimensions than the regular bvr and BFM vids, they are still good of course
100% these are the best videos. Love these!

the door gunner for that mi8 was a few feet away from the greatest moment of his life😂
If the MG jammed and he got the F22 with his pistol...
simultaneous the worst and best moments of his life in reach...
Always good seeing the 22 in action especially with a Darkstar cameo 👌
As always, I appreciate the mission-based content! Good stuff!
Imagine doing all that, only to be greased by an Mi-8 door gunner... That would have been something. LOL
The cinematic quality of these videos is incredible. It’s better than a movie. And that’s not hyperbole.
The amount if precision needed to take out each engine individually is next level.!
You're an awesome pilot!
if he was a nice guy he'd just decapitate the radar. if. then those kids could go back home and cheat on Tarkov
Imagine the AWACS crew when they realize how badly they’re being f’d with before they get blasted out of the sky
GS truly reaching new heights with the surgical precision of his fuckery, like a kid pulling the wings off a fly one by one.
@@411DL And when it came off, it would smash the tail surfaces. Tough luck!

also the Chinese anti-missle system may not be that effective. They are based on S-300 if I remeber correctly.
Far better to overestimate your enemies capabilities than to underestimate them@@熊掌波清波
Good point!
Excellent tactic
was curious why Chinese carrier has not deployed it's aircrafts to defend against cruise missiles
that should be a point also!
9:25 Impressed by how fast these guys went from 'Yeah, we can still pull this of' to 'Nope, we're out'.

@@KevinHuangPhasorQuantaG true, he did give them a chance, but still I feel like he was pushing the limits there😂
Love that the two you snuck up on survived; they'll be able to tell everyone what happened.
That seen reminded me of the star wars trench run. "Lost starsky, lost hunch. Came from behind."
Imagine being that door gunner and seeing an F22 coming straight at your face lmao
The editing is really amazing. These videos are like mini movies and I can’t get enough. Great work.
you have no idea how satisfying this was to watch as a Taiwanese, you have no idea...
Oh I know my friend... Trust me, I know

looked as if not only the doorgunner almost got you but also the rotor blades almost got you :D
It takes a lot of practice and skill to time your gun run so the aircraft slips between the spinning rotor blades.
It’s videos like these that make me really happy to live in the nation with the highest military budget by about 10x.

Instead of shooting the engines off what would happen if you shot the dish off the top ?
If it didn’t damage plane when it exploded, the plane would be fine.
@@michaelpetty8416 It would still fly, it just wouldn't be an AWACS anymore.
2:52 flash back to when GS was in a Flanker and the Raptor formed up on his wing 😂
15:38 that cinematic was beautiful
That last shot of you flying under the overturned exploding chopper was awesome!
Love how the mi8 was the most dangerous thing to the f22 the whole ride, LMAO
I love this maximum disrespect and sneak peak the two fighters !
Great video !
Surprised there weren't any E/A-18Gs in the mix, because those could help with both the AWACs and ship based radar situation and and make the F-22 even more imbalanced on top. I suppose that would even be more lopsided than this scenario.
Marines have them, so I agree. The problem is maybe how EW is modelled (or not modelled) in DCS.
3:00 "You really ought to go home too, electric boogaloo"
surgically removing the radar dome from the AWACS wouldve been fun to see
I'd love to see some Air-to-Ground with you flying the F-35 Lightning.
5:20 I like how he put long range anti ship stealth missle for all the non military nerds
lol. At the 5:26 Mark I thought Iron Man dropped out from below one of the DarkStars. 🤣😂🤣
AWESOME VIDEO as always. 👍
You’re creeping up on that initial terrified was a thing of beauty. It must be heaven to be an F-22 pilot.
And think the 6th Gen coming out will have its own crew of unmanned wingman that's why only making 200 of them
@@Chris-yi4pj 美国6代机不是终止了吗？😂
I maintained my sanity until 8:52... OKAY BYEEEE! LMAO!
I got so caught up in the adventure of the helicopter duel that I completely forgot about the stealth missile attack!
It made for a "GREAT FINALE" !!!
That first dude punched out so quick he must fly with one hand on the ejection handle!!
The raptor is playing with it's food again
taking the engines and "ok byeeee" is absolutely RUTHLESS LOL
these multi tiered missions are my favorite! Great work!!
The harpoons were moving like dads when they see gas prices have decreased all of them just heading to one station in trucks 😂
Whenever I see you sneak up behind some random enemies with the Raptor and get close enough for guns, I shake my head at people saying guns on a fighter is pointless. Saved the taxpayers some missiles with those guns kills.
Until he wasted two of them missing that helicopter. 😳😳
Tell this to LockMart (F-35B/C).
11:10 imagine being a randome whale out in the middle of the ocean, and you breach only to accidentally intercept one of these missles 😂💀
During the AWACS attack I'm thinking, "Didn't his mother teach him to not play with his food?" 😄
8:40 Br0 is like a kid who caught a fly, clipping the wings individually like a psychopath, and I'm totally here for it lmao!
364 Fortune cookies didn't like this video.
Imagine just flying on patrol and seeing your wingman get 20miled out of the sky out of absolutely nowhere

Its becoming an F22 tradition to inspect the payload of an enemy before the fight starts
Thanks for the multi aircraft videos, i thoroughly enjoy them
Shooting the engines individually is a next level of bullying 😂
Thinking the Battle Group Virginia Class sub would be a more efficient option seeing how it’s probably stalking this already.
That is the clean up duty/encouraging faster sinking duty
1:54 I love How every time gs breaks off he puts on a little show
"I gave them time to get out. So, they should be thanking me." Yeah, after you snuck up on their flying radar dish in a plane with an RCS of a bee and clipped their engines one-by-one.
An entire video where the raptor just plays with its food
love it
Hey GS this video of yours has the best cinematic (not to mention the kinematics) by far! Thanks for the entertainment buddy! 😊
Love the eerie music when the Dark Stars and the ASMs are on the screen.
Good job GS! Love all your content and looking forward for more ones!
Can we have some more f-22 vs j-20 bvr fights in the future!
Seeing your wingman go down in flames, then seeing a Raptor point its nose at you….gotta be a nightmare man.

Seriously, these big mission based videos are really awesome, and seeing the Darkstars make a nice cameo appearance is like icing on the cake! Thanks for this!!
Those were J-15s, not J-20s. You wouldn't be able to see a J-20's loadout bc they carry their weapons internally
Damn just imagine flying with your buddy thinking your sneaking up on a group of fighters. Only to see a streak of bullets fly through his cockpit and he doesn’t eject before slamming into the sea.

Love the LRASM skimming footage. Keep up the F-22 videos!
Does DCS have an after action report? I’d be curious to see what damage the Chinese carrier group took. Would they still be combat affective?
My guess? 3 escorts sunk and 1 carrier damaged and limping back to port.
The f 22 from the back always reminds me of Johnny 5 in battle mode
My two favorite planes. What a treat DCS can be. Thanks GS! You're the best!

This video was that of a Cheetah hunting a field mouse who got its head slammed in the car door when it was a baby, and now talks a little funny.
Could you do some kind of mission with the yf-23? I would love to see that dude, I love ur vids👍
Whats hilarious is a very similar situation happened with an f22 sneaking below and behind an iranian.
I think it would be very interesting to see a dogfight between 2 su-57s, both trying to outmaneuver each other
Shoutout to the camera person risking their life to get these angles
Imagine the door of that big fat helo with an F-22 stenciled on it.
Wow, that was really cool. You in the 22 are the bully of the skies!
Can the Dark Star fly at Mach 9 in DCS? I was under the impression that Iit couldn't be modeled to fly that fast currently.
