I don't think many people realize how much work goes into a video like this. Making the mission alone must take hours if not days. Great stuff Drewski. Super entertaining.
WestCoast 392 dude, making an op like this in real-time sounds like it would be a bitch! Dude, I don’t think most people could do it if they did Zeus op it!
Rowdy that hurt, but I do feel like I have a lot to learn as a Zeus, tried zeusing to a mil-sim group & I thought they would take it super serious, cause mil-sim, but they messed around & I ruined the op by allowing them to do that.
@Spooky Man We have a group called TCG, about 50-70 an op and been going strong for 4 years. There are 4 ops a week and most of our command staff are prior military. We've been growing pretty fast lately so I recommend getting enlisted as soon as possible. You can find us by just searching "TCG Arma 3".
When the first IR missile was sent at him, Drew turned on his LWIRCM system, which is basically high-tech IR laser that blinds the missile's sensor, rather than dumping burning flares as a decoy. However, in RHS the LWIRCM continues to deploy until it either is discharged and recharges (runs out of ammo and reloads) or you turn it off. When the second pair of missiles came his way, his LWIRCM was recharging, leaving him unable to spoof the incoming missiles. When a missile threat is detected, hit C to activate the LWIRCM. When it is defeated, hit Ctrl-C to turn it off and leave it ready to be activated again.
Slight correction, IRCM systems like ATIRCM, LAIRCM, and CIRCM don't "blind" the missile. They overwhelm the sensor/algorithm with a stronger signal than the target and cause a steering command that puts the target out of view. Basically tell the missile to "turn left" until it won't see the original target anymore. It's not just "you can't see anymore", it's a "your target is over there, trust me".
@@sightline2132 ohhhh didn't even recognize the name! I watched that guys SCP thing... Can't wait for his next but Corona makes it seem like that ain't coming anytime soon
@@williamhughjoneswill5981 You have no way to survive vehicle crashes like that, in reallife you do. So this way its way better. You still get hurt from the crash.
Gotta say i love videos like this, normal operations are fun as well, but when things go horribly wrong and you gotta improvise, that's top tier stuff. Awesome vid
Ever since frankie stopped making vids, you've been the youtuber who has filled that void for me for so long. I could never play games like this or tarkov but you make it such an experience to watch. Thank you Drewski!
I dont know about other people, but I really want to see what Drewski looked like from a grounds perspective, shooting, n firing missiles. Especially getting shot down. Bet it was epic.
@Drewski I’m bucking up and getting a PC this year just so I can play Arma! I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and you’re the reason why I’m getting one!
That was real fun to watch! Looks like you had a decent challenge! Miracle you survived the crash tho Drew!... just casually jump out with backpack full of mags lol xD
First video from you i am watching. And also first video of that content type. I am really enjoying it and absolutely love the whole feeling of your video. Also, i an baffled by the reflections and graphics inside the cockpit.
The music I made for the intro was basically me just ripping off Jóhann Jóhannsson 's score for Sicario. Primarily cause it fit and it was something I could make fairly quickly.
hey, could you make a list of ALL the mods you use, i recently got arma, and want to have the same experience as you. i doesn't even have to be a video, just a list would be amazing.
the helicopter is from RHSUSAF, most of the vehicles are also from that mod. I suggest finding a community server that does these kind of ops that a semi serious unless you want a more realistic gameplay. The radio is seeming to be ACRE2 but im not sure on that. Also to have the graphics that drewski has just bump all your graphics up to max and importantly max your bloom.
RHS Escalation pack, ACE, Task Force Radio, but I strongly suggest joining some dedicated Arma unit if you really want to experience something similar.
God, my obsession with arma and squad is only growing with videos like these, I love messing with maps mostly but I'd love to do an op like this some time, just wish my group was as interested in this stuff as I am
@OperatorDrewski I just say " omg bro I love your videos" - the first 5 second it´s like a movie, I like the way you edit your videos, congratulations sir. CODE: THS104 you now what that means
Watching this footage again makes me want to go back to practicing my flying with the little bird! I've slowly been getting better at flying the AH1 and the UH80 :) The clan I plan on joining is looking for transport pilots atm :)
Bro I love these Ops I’ve gone through pretty much this whole playlist. I really hope to see more. I also hope a similar kind of game can one day make it to consoles. Either way this is amazing content.
10:49 When you lost collective like that, without knowing what you were doing with your controls, I'd say you were likely pulling the collective full up, whilst pulling back on the cyclic? I think what happened there was your blades stalled, which can happen when you pull up too hard and the blades go too face-on to the wind (high angle-of-attack). You'll get more lift in that situation even with the collective all the way down. You can fix it counter-intuitively by dropping collective down, then pulling up more gently. You'll feel the chopper bite into the air a bit more and start to rise, and once it's travelling more forwards and less down, you can bring the collective back up and carry on as you were. This is similar to stalls in fixed-wing aircraft where the instinctive response is to keep pulling back on the stick which only makes it worse, but the fix is to push the stick forwards to get the wings to a better AoA. I'd say you were pretty lucky not to hit the ground there. In a more extreme manoeuvre the chopper can just drop like a stone if you don't know how to recover it. EDIT: Oh... unless you were saying the chopper was damaged. That would make sense too lol.
@OperatorDrewski I just want to say I made the mistake of letting this be the first video I watched in your ARMA 3 playlist. I saw Paolo Encarnacion's new trailer yesterday for VTOL VR, then went to the webpage of VTOL VR where your 2018 dogfight video was featured, watched that, then started browsing your channel. Now all I want to see is more footage of you doing super awesome helicopter / aerial support stuff in ARMA 3. Here's hoping... :D
I don't think many people realize how much work goes into a video like this. Making the mission alone must take hours if not days. Great stuff Drewski. Super entertaining.
Lmfaoo it's more like a day or 2. Then its preloaded onto a server. If its Zeus, you make it real time.

@@Alex-lt5ho I zeus all the time for large player bases and this was pretty light, wouldn't take long to set up if you are half decent at zeus.
THAT BLOODY INTRO
Rowdy that hurt, but I do feel like I have a lot to learn as a Zeus, tried zeusing to a mil-sim group & I thought they would take it super serious, cause mil-sim, but they messed around & I ruined the op by allowing them to do that.
Evan Royalty did a great job for that intro. Can't wait to see Overlord once he's able to get back to filming.
Same here
Filming starts at June, right ???
Yea, that was a great intro!

Totally agree great intro
This is the kind of milsim group I want but I can’t find any this good
Clayton Pendley its so true bro
You Can try the one i am in if you want?
Clayton Pendley why you want to be in a Muslim group

Reason found why you cannot find any...

Hold up you can do this with the LWIRCM 1400 hrs in Arma and I thought once you use it, it goes all the way and you have to wait for recharge
ooooo that's koo to know

I'd say thats the best Intro you've ever made by far☀
BNNSON couldn’t agree with you more! Deadly AF!
props to Evan Royalty! check his channel out he's great at what he does
If you like that intro, watch Sicario 1 and 2 - this was almost certainly inspired by it, including the music.
3:01 Phoo KIA returning to Rib
6:32 Seawart KIA headshot
27:00 Jay & Clutch KIA lined up in enemy sights
29:54 CAS down
36:18 Found Jay
I just noticed the vault boy bobble head on the dashboard XD
Anyone else not even play milsims but loves drewskis videos because they are just that cinematic and entertaining?
did anyone else get chills on that KIA call out, It's a game and I still felt it.
100!
KIA Soul or GT??
idk if it's bc im stoned or what but as soon as that happened i had the same thought and i just thought to read some comments then i read your comment
Cant find the "KIA call out" for some reason ;(
Exactly, I felt the same. You could hear the guy responding even sounded a bit shocked but preoccupied.
One of your best intros yet! For a second I thought it was real footage.
IKR it was so good, especially that AT shot.
Definitely, there's a link in the description to the guy that made the intro. He makes equally mindblowing cinematics.
Thanks for the kind words, guys.

Ive literally been watching all the old videos waiting for a new operation. Thanks drewski
I dont know about other people, but I really want to see what Drewski looked like from a grounds perspective, shooting, n firing missiles. Especially getting shot down. Bet it was epic.
heck of a job hugging those trees like that!
Always great to see you flying. Keep up the good work brother.
"Choppers fly low over jungle, draw Charlie's fire." lol
Gotta love the train worker at 37:10 just standing there whilst a firefight goes on around them XD

One year later, how was it?
Aw man I got so excited seeing this pop up in my notifications
That was real fun to watch! Looks like you had a decent challenge! Miracle you survived the crash tho Drew!... just casually jump out with backpack full of mags lol xD
And sick intro again! They just keep getting better and better Drew!!
That intro tho! 🔥 my man great edit! I see I owe my amazement to Evan!
Hope Drewski isn't getting bored of this genre. He excels at it!
Film grain does a hell of a good job with increasing realism
I have no desire to ever play games like this. But watching y’all play is pretty badass
First video from you i am watching. And also first video of that content type. I am really enjoying it and absolutely love the whole feeling of your video. Also, i an baffled by the reflections and graphics inside the cockpit.
Nice intro! Action packed content. Well done!
Very entertaining. Thank you Drew.
I like now drewski is just so calm even when the helicopter crash he talks like nothing happened
KEEP ARMA GOING!!! Arma 4 almost here!!!
where did you hear that lol
Everybody “heard” it
What...?
@ZackTactical34 Whats this competitor
@ZackTactical34 Sooo what is it
"I'm bleeding out," Dumbledore said calmly.
This sounds weird but I'd love to see a mission fail for a difference. Idk I think it would be interesting especially in an air vehicle.
Me and All my mates have just gone back to Arma 3 and are really enjoying it too
Really nice intro. Hats off to Drewski
A pilot who ended up taking tanks with RPG. U're a whole army :D
Love the fallout bobble head, didn’t even see it until he landed to pick up one of the squads.
THAT INTRO WAS SO GOOD IT REMINDS ME OF SICARIO
The music I made for the intro was basically me just ripping off Jóhann Jóhannsson
's score for Sicario. Primarily cause it fit and it was something I could make fairly quickly.
Evan Royalty it’s still felt very tense and creative that was fantastic
that intro man, that shits dope af
That intro alone was more work than most youtubers put into their whole channel…. I love the Arma videos I only wish I had a PC to play…

jesus christ drewski we asked for more arma not more production value! not that i'm complaining though...
Nobody makes ARMA3 look better than Drewski.
I had my headphones all the way up and felt the BASS of this intro in the earmuffs
16:20 love this death from above type vibe. Ever done a gunship mission?
Damn, some of the shots in the intro genuinely looked like real life
Nice seeing you back in ArmA missions.
Sick! Hope you're doing well Drew!
That intro is a movie entry, Sick! Hoping for more Little Bird videos
These intros are just getting better and better wow.
jesus the intro could almost pass as scenes in a real movie because of how good it is
"You see us on the opposite hill as you? Moving left to right"
"F**K!"
XD
Now that's cinematography.
Almost 1 million subs, hope you make it :D
Sproxy almost? 150k left lol
