Good kills, thanks for the AAR! I just picked up the Saber and the Farmer from the current sale, can’t wait to get in some fights with them. Your videos definitely help me get some extra insight into things I should keep in mind, I’m hoping I can get my first MP A-A fighter kill soon. So far my only MP ones (3) have been in the Huey against Hinds- two maneuver/terrain kills, one damage induced (got some good hits on his tail rotor).
Nice sortie! If you want to be more successful with the sneak up kills, turn your radar distance dial to minimum or keep the gunsight off until ready to fire. (The radar gunsight in the Sabre is giving the reds an rwr lock warning to the rear which leads to evasive maneuvers). Turning the gunsight off turns off the radar.
Congrats man. That MiG-21 was doing some insane almost buggy manoeuvring at first I thought someone was either a pro able to work the jank of the fishbed to perfection, unfortunately it looks more like mad desperation that for a split sec looked genius. Still 5 kills in the Sabre is not easy. Such a niche aircraft during this particular time-period (1970). I'm more of the MiG-15 type myself still not plucked up the courage to go online yet.
Congrats my dude!! I was just watching your video on getting the hang of the F86 and how you got an Ace. True progress. Cheers!
My 9B only hit friendly. Still feeling sad about the Viggen................
Yeah, they are so easily distracted. Flares, friendlies, the Fae...

It should have been turned down to minimum on all of these but I may well have messed up at some point
Gotta watch those overshoots!
Yeah I do, just in general. I'm so used to trying to force overshoots that I keep forgetting I too can overshoot XD
Nice video and air to air tutorial.
Nice kills! Just got the Sabre in the sale and excited to try it out on ECW.

Good flying!
I think the mig 21 just pulled too hard and the manuevering wasn't intentional
Well it worked. For a bit
