a 747's pilot has VERY poor visibility on anything that is more than 70 degrees off the cockpit's front window. if he pushes his head hard on the window he may get 100 degrees of view. maybe a passenger could see GS but the pilot certainly wouldn't.
Hey GS. Just wanted to thank you for all the content that you've put up over the years. Modern air combat was always very abstract and opaque to me. All I knew was that you shot a missile at someone and hoped they didn't shoot at you, and that was that. But since I've become a subscriber, I've learned an incredible amount from you. BVR, BFM, one circle, two circle, notching, cranking, going cold, reengaging, bandits hot/cold/flanking, the value of being high and fast, the MAR, jamming the WEZ, how you use the EWR... It goes on and on. This is all stuff that I learned from you and you alone, and have been extremely entertained in the process. And for that I just wanted to give a more tangible thanks. Of course I'll continue being a subscriber and continue watching, and will continue to learn. And I'm really enjoying how your mixing more BVR scenarios into your usual 1-on-1 matchups. Lots to learn from both of those. So thanks again. This has been one of THE most entertaining and educational RUclips channels that I'm subscribed to. Keep up the great work!
Thank you very very much. It’s amazing to hear people are watching these videos enjoying and learning things in the process. Thank you also for your generosity and your support of the channel. Very grateful for subs like you around here. Much love.
@@druid4243 Completely agreed. Since the v22 are here on their own mission, they would have somebody covering them. It isnt even the raptor's job to support them, he only needs to clear the way for b21

It’s crazy to see how many ospreys one flanker could kill knowing that each osprey is 24 marines and 4 crew each that died without ever getting into the fight.
Watching you trying to protect the Ospreys was like watching a bird trying to fight off literal Raptors from killing its babies. The last few kills were just brutal after your 9X went for the sun.
@@rickyal9810 considering this scenario seems very Taiwan related, or at best, Philippines related, I assume it can only escalate from here? Either way, Bob's not making that meeting. He could maybe text, "Sorry, boss, I watched WW3 start off the wing of my plane" because 45 minutes, later the EMP from the inbound tactical nuke to that island knocked out his flight systems and he impacted the ocean at 500 mph. Some of these scenarios seem pretty cut and dry, especially the middle east ones, but you start shooting at Russian or Chinese assets and the more one-sided the engagement, the more likely they are to pop off? If it's Taiwan, it's escalating to nukes in minutes. Philippines, the communist party officials probably won't want to die trying to take their islands. That's my take on it, anyway.

So I live in NZ. Our navy is 3 fishing trailers with aks straped to the front. Our army has no mbt but a handful of aging lav. We have some arty from 1970s. Our air force is a dhl at home. Our prime minister went on a trip. We had send 2 planes incase the other breaks down.
You've absolutely been on an absolute F-22 tear lately huh? Been loving all the vids with it man, seeing you sneak up behind enemy aircraft without them knowing is fabulous
I absolutely love these scenario videos. Also crazy to think that a week ago I never watched or had anything to do with DCS or aviation of any kind. Now here I am binge watching all of GS videos, watching aviation movies, and looking at getting one of those raptor hoodies. I've even started geeking about the f22
A good way to reprogram your brain concerning "decimate" is just replacing it with devastate. Sounds similar, and 99 times out of 100 it will be the better option. Decimate is just super niche as a word.
Id love to see you have a Marine fixed wing protect some rotor wing air like you did as a mission. Like a small group of F18's guarding Huey and Osprey helicopters.
Man GS I'm so used to your abilities that I was shouting loud requesting you to shoot down those Flankers. I admire what you do so much that I tend to see you as a super hero. Nice job once again.
@@thedyingmeme6 of course no one knows, besides people behind the classified veil. There are theories out there that be 21 raider, might have air to air capabilities.

Gosh. I was remembering playing Rogue Squadron on my N64 long ago while watching you watching that Flanker kill so many Ospreys. Remembering all the "mission failed" screens when I couldn't keep my friendlies alive in escort missions. 😂
I have no idea how you don’t already have a million subs. I know next to nothing about dogfighting or aircraft and yet I can’t stop watching. Love your stuff dude, keep it coming!

My favorite example was when the Eurofighter got that insane falling leaf fox2 shot off on your f22, and I really want to see what other talented fighters can do when given opportunities! Keep up the great work!
looking into DCS now, I really want to do this stuff. Are you making your own missions or something? Im curious how you are getting this all setup, it looks like so much fun!
I'm a bit sad so many Ospreys went down before you got that Flanker. You didn't shoot him with a Fox 2 or 3 for stated reasons, but did you paint him constantly that entire time? I would think he'd go evasive if his RWR was going crazy.
"Decimate" in its original Roman punitive military justice sense, meant to take 1/10 of the soldiers. In its modern context, it means 'to impose unacceptably high losses'. You were correct in your usage. The Romans never spoke of 'decimating' their enemies as that would be to limit military action. Decimation was only ever against the Roman army itself.

Would like to see how B-21s, F-22s and F-35s networked together would fight as a team.
f22 may have datalink issues but it could be possible for it to receive support from the f35. good idea otherwise.
I wish DCS added more support for that kind of thing!
Throw an F-15 or two to sling Amraams on data link from behind and nothing would survive
That's too much tax dollars in one sentence
Throw in some F-15EX missile trucks to augment loadouts from range, just for funsies.

It’s crazy to see how many ospreys one flanker could kill knowing that each osprey is 24 marines and 4 crew each that died without ever getting into the fight.
These were going to set up a forward operating base so they would have fewer Marines and a bunch of equipment. Still a tragic loss.
yeah, but you would never see Ospreys getting deployed in contested air space like that without having F-22s or F-35s as wingmen
not so sure about that
Man in hindsight the risk of the enemy taking out most the flight was greater than the risk of friendly fire. Hard call to make.
Would love to see the F-22 stealth working with the F15-E radar against anything and everything, see how unstoppable that duo would be 🔥🔥
He already did that though

Imagine you're just some business man on a plane and seeing a F-22 execute a Flanker off your wing

Yeah, but you're protected simply by not being included on 1/3 of the maps, hidden in plain sight, clever girl.
One would think in a real life mission, those ospreys would have an escort or two because they are pretty much helpless from what I know of them…
That's how it appeared - since that lousy escort f22 was hanging out in the distance...

That second airliner was a China Southern A380. He was probably very ungrateful that you annihilated his protecting escort.
absolutely loving the volume but also quality of your output lately! keep up the good work, just make sure you stay fresh!
The B 21 makes the F 22 look so old when next to each other, She is certainly a looker for a bomber.
8:33 I guess Flankers are like bratty children, they can create a big mess.. if left unattended
I think that the two Flankers that you nabbed were escorting a chinese airliner, so they actually had reason to be there. Very cool video as always!
Yea the logo looked like China Southern airlines.
Imagine being in the airliner and an air fight breaks out? Insanity and a crazy story to tell you grandkids.

Dude, that outro goes so f***ing hard it's insane...
Goddamn the b21 was so stealthy I couldn’t see it until about 40 seconds in
You kinda blew it on protecting those Ospreys to be honest
Whoever sent the Osprey's alone into enemy controlled air space blew it.
No, the commander who put a cadre of defenseless aircraft into highly contested airspace without their own escort blew it.
