      What better place to train and climatise your forces than a desert mountain where they’ll be going to a desert mountain.
      When I was with the Royal Marines we have a training camp called Garenlochhead, the mountains and hills that surround it are both public and military accessed for this reason. There’s nothing wrong with it having a mountain there.
      Even the highway, we had one close to ours for easy access.
      Bare in mind the UK stored the majority of their nuclear weaponry less than 3 miles away in Faslane which also has mountainous terrain around it and a publicly accessed Loch/River which their nuclear submarines are in.
      The most classified thing in Fort Zancudo would be the systems in the planes.
      If they can have all this stuff in very much public view the US Government can have a few F-16s, a Freedom Fighter training plane, 3 C-137s and a Little bird next to a mountain.

    The whole military in GTA 5 is poorly designed. The ped models with full combat gear are listed as Combat Marines, but have Army patches on their sleeves. Every Officer in the base is a 4 star General. There are also Marine Officers who are somehow both 4 star Generals and Army Staff Sergeants at the same time given that they have both rank insignia present on their uniforms.

      The police force also is. On the LS side it's mostly fine, but in Blaine County it gets messed up real fast. Since it's called Blaine County, I'm guessing the law enforcement agency should be called Blaine County Sheriff Dept, but for some reason it says Los Santos County Sheriff Dept on all their posted signs and vehicles (except in Paleto Bay, where there's a sign referencing the "Paleto Bay Sheriff's Office"). It would be fine if they could be spotted all around the map, alongside the LSPD in the city, but they don't (only in some parts of Vinewood, and on the beach for whatever reason). They also do traffic duties along the highways in parts of Blaine County, even though that would technically be the job of the San Andreas Highway Patrol. Which only seem to be present with officers wearing uniforms with a patch reading "Los Santos Highway Patrol" and using bikes boasting the LSPD logo and slogan.

    In real life, Fort Zancudo is supposed to be modeled after Vandenburg AFB and Naval Base Ventura County (Base layout from Vandenburg, environment around base is NBVC), by rockstar standards it's a Joint Forces Base, so in Reality, it should be named Joint Base Blaine County-Fort Zancudo.
    Also rockstar designed the vehicles to be in their own way, somethings dont make sense bc theyre just rockstar lore vehicles. The Titan, the Lazer, the Buzzard, are all lore vehicles that are combinations of some real life vehicles, made in their own way.

      It's not just because of lore. It also has to do with licencing.
      If they just added a perfectly identical to real life, let's say the Lockheed Martin (Current manufacturer) F-16 without permission, they can get into trouble.
      Which is why you see pretty much every single flight sim/combat sim etc have all those lines in their manual or in credits or other saying something along the line of "Boeing licenced aircraft this Airbus licensed aircraft that".

    As a Marine Veteran, what stuck out for me was the lack of PPE worn by the soldiers/airmen carrying rifles. If they were going to the range, they would at least need to be wearing slings and some kind of cover on their heads. If they were on duty as part of the base security forces, they need to be wearing flak, battle belt, and Kevlar (and eye and ear protection). I guess whoever the SNCO or OIC is just doesn’t give a shit.

    Need to do GTA 4's Airport

    • @MrSupercar55
      @MrSupercar55 2 месяца назад +52

      Francis International Airport in GTA 4 is surprisingly detailed. However, it’s still flawed though. It’s Throwback Thursday, so here goes!!
      1: The planes are taxiing around in an endless loop and never taking off or landing.
      2: The airport cars (noted as “feroci2” and “perennial2” in the game’s files). I would forgive them on the grounds that real airports have a “follow me” car to assist planes with taxiing, and to guide other vehicles, such as construction vehicles, or limousines carrying celebrities to or from their private jets (Captain Joe has a whole video on that). However, Francis International is way too small to necessitate a “follow me” car. In addition to that, the airport cars in GTA 4 look nothing like a real “follow me” car. There are no “follow me” markings on them, only FlyUS logos. Plus the light bar on the roof of the airport car wouldn’t comply with FAA regulations.
      3: The airport is well detailed, but it’s wasted on the fact that you can’t actually fly the planes without mods, as some of my videos show. Even then, you don’t get engine noise or propeller/jet animations, and the controls only pitch and roll. You don’t get yaw control, which necessitates steeper bank angles for tight turns while flying, and you can only taxi in a straight line.
      4: Signs saying “CAUTION YOUR BLAST” next to the runway. What does that even mean? Is it a typo? Is it a crude joke, like the ones that are part of the furniture in all GTA games? In any case, it makes a good stunt jump, particularly on a motorcycle, but that serves no purpose other than one’s own enjoyment because, unlike previous GTA games, you don’t get any reward for stunt jumps.
      5: Ray Bulgarin’s private jet. Not only does the door open so Luis can subdue the bodyguard and get in as the plane reaches V1, but also, it opens again in mid flight and Luis descends to safety with a parachute as the plane is destroyed in the air by a grenade. There is absolutely no way that would work because jet planes are pressurised, and the doors are held shut by the pressure because they are plug doors (Mentour Pilot has a whole video on that).

      This is basically like saying Marines aren't infantry because they're part of the Navy. However "Marine" is just another way of saying "Naval Infantry".
      However unlike Army/MC MPs. Air Force SF guys are pretty much purely for base security & will likely have an Army unit to deploy outside the wire. This doesn't mean SF can't be deployed outside the wire but, not likely for combat mission.
      Also, whenever you see those guys on missions calling in airstrikes. Those are most likely Air-Force guys attached to whatever element is on a combat mission. Be they Army, Marine or Navy.

    somewhat of a GTA 5 veteran here (playing since 2014). ive been to this base countless times and while ive never cared about most of the stuff youve mentioned, i have noticed the random runway and the buzzard/lazer parked randomly and ON the taxiway (you'd collide with them if you were in any plane). Something i would add to this is the fact the helipads are placed directly under the glideslope of Runway 30, along with the extremely tall runway lights which can be a hazard even for a medium sized aircraft. I like to land in first person and i always feel like im about to hit the runway lights, but i never do. However there was one time that a helicopter took off right in front of me as i was landing there, and i panicked because i ofc didnt expect it. So instead of going around for another attempt, i threw the joystick sideways which caused the plane to tilt to the right at a 90⁰, then the right wing hit one of the runway lights, tearing it off. Then i spun upside down and crashed. Honestly that was insane and i have had very few *actual* plane crashes in gta 5. That is definitely something they better have taken care of in gta 6

(Bigger aircrafts cant become smaller with one clap, thats why hangar needs to have this place in case of emergency ( Smaller aircrafts are usually parked near walls of hangar))
    3:00 The "Fort" in "Fort Zancudo" probably means the fact that its both, if someone , for some reason, attacks Los Santos, Fort holds some potential from the get-go, however the Fort can always request additional power via air, and maybe even sea.

    So as someone in the Air Force, I have some things to say. The jet isn’t facing the wrong way in the hangar, we park the jets facing out towards the door. The Hangar also looks as if it could be a backshop or Phase hangar which are larger hangers where heavier maintenance is done. My base has tanks as the Army also has personnel here but on display, obviously not ones to drive around. You can find other service aircraft on base sometimes because they’ll stop to get gas or have a reason to be on base. Just some little info to add, liked the video

    Active Air Force F-16 crew chief here. My guess about this base is that it’s a joint base of some sort, judging by all of the different vehicles around. I don’t work at a joint base, but in my base we don’t have Security Forces walking around on the line with AKs and no helmets lol. You are right about the outdoor parking - they seldom have aircraft outside of the overhangs, usually only for certain things like at a certain shop that doesn’t have a lot of indoor space, at EOR, troubleshooting certain things like GPS where you need to see the sky above the aircraft, trim pad runs, etc. Also we do just leave tow bars unattended like that on the ready line, we just take a coleman or bobtail over and pick them up when we need it. Fun fact; I went around to look at the different AGE (aerospace ground equipment) they have around the flightline and most things are actually pretty accurately modeled. I don’t have too much else to add, just wanted to throw a few things out there. I liked the video too btw :)

    0:33 Most USAF bases do not have hangar storage for most planes on hand, usually either sitting out in the elements (they will survive most climates) for heavier and larger aircraft like Cargo and Bomber. Fighters usually just have shaded pavilion style parking spots mostly to shade the aircraft from the sun so the pilots don't burn themselves upon sitting in said jet, or damage avionics in the rain if the canopy is open. As these aircraft are usually in deserts or warmer climates.

    One thing to take into account is that Rockstar is a British company. They don't have the Military/Gun aspect of our culture, so it totally makes sense why they would get alot of that stuff wrong. I mean it could all be solved by having firearms consultants or armed forces veterans guiding you through the processes of making guns and military stuff, but I can forgive them for not putting a whole let of effort into that field all the way back in 2010-2013 when all of that stuff was being developed

    Loved the video @Spida! Can't wait for the next video man! First video of yours that I'm watching and absolutely loving the content man! I have a Few things about Fort Zancudo (or "Fort Mosquito" for those who also look at the Wiki) that mostly agree with you.
    Yes, the Whole Base is basically too Small. If Anything, there should be Single Engine Turboprop Aircraft on the Facility. According to the Wiki, it's used by the Army, Marines and the Air Force so it technically should be called "Joint Base Zancudo".
    For the Vehicles, Rockstar likely did everything they did not just for the Lore of GTA, but also to avoid getting slapped with Copyright Infringement suits. Yes, Apparently anything after 1999 is Protected by Copyright Laws, meaning using actual American Military Equipment would have the Federal Government dogpiling on Rockstar worse than the ATF going on the Branch Dividian at Waco, Nevermind the Fact that it's actual F-16C "Viper" Fighting Falcon Fighters, F/A-18E Super Hornets, CH-53E Super Stallion and CH-47D Chinook Heavy Lift Cargo Helicopters or even M1A2 SEP V2 or V3 Main Battle Tanks, all of which would only serve to Legitimize the Federal government going after them, It's doing so without the Express Permission of either the Federal government or the Contractors who Manufactured these Vehicles like General Dynamics, Boeing, Sikorsky, etc. Although as far as the Rhino still looking like an Outdated Leopard 2A4 Main Battle Tank is Concerned, maybe Krauss-Maffei or even the Reichstag weren't all that Concerned about it to do the same.
    You've got a decent point with the Radar to be honest. Most, if not all, Radars are on the Top of the Air Traffic control towers.
    Back to the Matter on Size..... The whole Base is Too small. You can't even fit a Modded KC-135 Stratotanker Aerial Refueling Tanker or a C-5M Galaxy Strategic Heavy Lift Cargo Aircraft in there without knocking the Wingtips into some part of the Base!
    Let me know what you think about this and I'll catch you in your next video man!

    I’m just gonna say it’s an army aviation base since the base seems to revolve around its planes. Every base can have anyone from a different branch like at Camp Pendleton marine Corp base, if you hang around enough you’ll find airmen and soldiers. As for sailors it’s pretty normal to find sailors in MCBs and vice versa

(I-Core being Army, 62nd being Airforce). As well as Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story in Virginia, home of some Army and Navy forces.
