Since drewski reading my comment is small, I am going to comment on your comment. What I really recommend doing in the j-11 and su-27(maybe even the mi-29) is going to about 25k feet and turning on your radar, while staying close to the mountains. Just try locking some people at long range to let them know that you're there. Then turn over to the mountains and let the enemy know that you are going there. Then go to irst and drop to the deck. Keep eyes on the dl and you should see some people turning to you. Get them to launch a slammer or Phoenix and/or turn cold if they are hot or locking you. They WILL do dumb stuff and try to follow you, so to then kill them just turn around a mountain and surprise them. I used this tactic on gs and was getting 3-4 kills each flight and even got 5 or 6 kills(don't remember) on another server(people on there weren't that good). If you do it right then you will be dodging a LOT of missiles but they will all hit the ground because you are maneuvering a bunch around the mountains. Might be fun to give it a try because there is so much action going on if you are doing a 1v3 on gs server.
Nice flying! The ERs are actually SARH, gotta hold the lock :D Also on the datalink, the length of the cross-bar at the tip of their V shows you the relative height, long line = high up, short to no line = on the deck
I went for a $2000.00 20 minute flight in a Russian trainer L39 Albatross. Absolutely insane. Did 5.5g, rolls, loop, inverted flight, vertical climb while spinning, and more. When you pull back on the stick or do any moves, the gravity is insane and you can't believe what actual fighter pilots endure. Greatest thing I've ever done, I'll never forget it.
Did that too in L29 though, right after going to weighlessness flight in spase laboratory IL76 MDK, this one to get a cosmonaut feelings. I came to DCS right after these flights. Bought top HOTAS set i could find and VR and looking for better monitor now.
Man, My first flight sim was SSI's SU-27 Flanker. I put MONTHS into playing that game, setting up scenarios. This was like.. pentium 75 era.. 1998 I think.. I loved that plane so much we went to an airshow with the sole purpose of touching one and seeing it in person. The "crane" was my baby.. Thank you for bringing back so many memories!
The F-16 gives it a good run for it's money, but the Su-27 and -33 are just so good looking. The F-14 and Mig-25 are great too, but in a different way. It's comparable to a modern Ferrari vs a 70's Ferrari.
This isnt overly realistic, its DCS but an FC3 plane. In reality the Flanker is more like bargain bin F-15. Not bad and to be underestimated, but just not on the level. Its powerful IRST in DCS is pretty unrealistic too. IRL those systems were considered very unreliable, but here its like a fantasy undetectable short range radar, which makes little sense. Eurofighter IRL has a much more advanced system, and it cant do that. Its fun for sure, though. I prefer the Mig-29 for its quirkiness (and it can actually climb with an F-15, which the draggy Flanker cant).
The Flanker was my plane of choice in Lock On (yes, i am dating myself) One of the nicest looking planes I have ever seen. Especially when in the 3 color splinter camo.

Hey drew. The su-27 is literal perfect for air to air engagements and have outclassed F-16’s already in skirmish’s. The su-30 and Su-35 are only rivaled by the f-35 and F-22 but are almost evenly matched but have more manuverability .
if you could only distinguish game from real life that will be achievement on your side... somehow i have feeling his mindset will be a bit different in real plane, real sky with real death as a possible outcome
It’s really common for newbies to not work their radars and check up and down. I loved that feature on the Cougar hotas with the radar elevation wheel; it made it easy to point low and high.
They forget that they need to let their ins fully allign for their datalink and Iff to work properly. I see these idiots just put it in nav the moment it says ready. When you’re supposed to wait for a flashing ready
Might just be new players. Learning the F-16 completly takes longer then to learn all FC3 Planes together. Allthough they should probably start by learning IFF. That said tho, there are plenty of Flanker pilots who don't know that their EO can't IFF and so they shoot friendlies with their ET's because they don't IFF with radar.
The flankers (su27, 33, 35, 37) are my favourite planes, so seeing this video got me really excited, they are fantastic planes and can be really deadly in the right hands, The su-33 is my favourite by the way.
13:37 I've never related so much!!! I can't count the times I've been recording or streaming and my German Shepherd wants ALL the attention and figures out ways to get it 🤣🤣🤣
I mean….. that’s how missiles work. Higher and faster = missile go further If the missile goes further, you can kill them before they can kill you. Makes you much more effective.
The Flankers are really underrated aircraft, they can carry more and fly both higher and faster than an F-15, and can outmaneuver any western jet minus the F-22. Really great planes, the west has had to adopt a strategy of taking on a Flanker with two aircraft instead of just one, because of just how maneuverable they are. Really cool to read about imo
I always say if like our friendly countries had this for example this would be the most dangerous fighter with others ofc . Having a well trained Air Force that could utilise this aircraft with proper training and maintenance. Pilots and experience is what make this aircraft good .
@Rhys Goodman Deka Ironworks Sims is having an internal vote to decide their next module. One of the candidates is the Su-30MKK, two-seat modernized variant of the Flanker exported to China.
@Rhys Goodman I think the 30MKK is the best chance at modern REDFOR. ED has said that while they can't do a modern REDFOR, third parties can do it. Also, Deka said that they have lots of info for the 30MKK, but not enough for a full module. However, all their other candidates (H-6,Q-5 and J-7) have the same issue- lots of docs, not enough for a full module YET. Also, I bet the Chinese are (weirdly) less secretive of their tech than Russia. The JF-17 was greenlighted, not to mention, the MFI-55 upgrade for the J-11A was also greenlighted to be added into DCS. The chance is still not high, but... I do hope that Deka chooses and can find enough info for the MKK, but don't keep your hopes up.
I love this video. It's the exact tactic I've used in the Mirage. Radar off, follow AWACs calls. My favourite was having a 2 ship of hornets fly overhead while I was in a valley. I hit full burners, did an immelman, slotted in behind, then hit one with heaters, and the second with a cannon. Was beauts. Look forward to more videos Drew!
Little help on your Fox calls. R-27R and R-27ER's are Fox-1, meaning Semi-Active RADAR missile launch. R-27T & ET's are Fox-2 meaning passively guided missile launch. R-77's are active guided radar missiles, Fox-3.
I love the Flanker and variants for this type of gameplay. I'd recommend the J11a for a mix of both this style, and 40k ft "meta", since it can carry decent ranged fox 3s.
My brother is an IAF Su30mki pilot. They fly really low, like lower than power lines low and fast like this. Seeing your video, I feel like I am seeing through his eyes. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
most f16 pilots dont realise that you need to turn on the iff, its the most agrovating shit. i dno if its still like it but it used to be that if another f16 didnt have iff turned on you couldnt get positive returns from them and would end up teamkilling
Yep. A lot take off without IFF set to norm and don't turn on the MIDS-LVT (beside the INS alignment knob). So they're effectively flying a 1980s Viper at that point.
The Camera work in the first half was pure Magic. Oh yea. That scratched an itch. In the second Half you were in the Kill Zone - hard focus on doing "boop" Well flown and well fought! Never fight Fair!
Knew i found you haha!! No way i made it into one of your videos :D 9:18 I managed to lock you on my radar for a split second before you pulled away, but you were terrain masking so I lost lock. Still had no idea about the R27 ET on its way tho since it is an IR missile and I get no launch warning.
A valuable lesson. Next time you see something pull away that hard after you hard lock him expect a ET coming your way. Just cut burners for a couple seconds to idle and weave left and right with some strong G’s. But do not go to after burner straight away after that. And the ET will always miss. Think ahead and pre-emptively react to threats. Also don’t hard lock him if possible. But TWS him while doing the above. And act like you are ignoring him till the last moment. A player like Drewski would probably not expect a tactic like that yet.
@@WinchesterDelta1 the things is, i was flying towards him which meant my heat sig is heavily reduced so i didnt expect an ET coming at all. My thought process probably got biased from my experience with the EO not being able to lock up front aspect targets before. Definitely not making that mistake again lol. In addition, I didnt see him pull away since i lost the lock the second he began to turn since drewski was terrain masking.
@@WinchesterDelta1 eh, ive only been playing for a couple weeks so i have no idea how ET's are used effecively. Ive always just thought of them as a long range IR missile.
100% with you. nothing like breaking meta for those interesting kills. So many people are following the meta that not following the meta is the new meta
Btw with vertical scan i found out you don’t have to spam it if you just hold the lock bottom it’ll work instead of having to break your finger trying to find a bandit
LOL love what you said about the Tomcat guys launching missiles from 50 miles. They want that safe stand off kill to boast numbers, almost as if they are afraid to get close in, which the Tomcat is just as capable of the close in fight but perhaps the pilot skills are not. Good video, makes me want to start learning the DCS Flanker.
Little did I know Drewski would become one of my favourite DCS RUclipsrs, after having been one of my favourite Squad RUclipsrs while also being one of my favourite Tarkov RUclipsrs. Bravo Drewski, Bravo.
16:04 No, you don't. You just have to hold it down until you get a lock. No spamming like a lunatic needed. Works also in boresight mode when you slew the circle around with ya target designator key/button, whatever. Just hold down the lock button while doing so.

@@orbitalpotato9940 Always expect a ET. I have killed people form 20 miles with ET becasue they where careless. Burning at high altitude.
@@WinchesterDelta1 eh, ive only been playing for a couple weeks so i have no idea how ET's are used effecively. Ive always just thought of them as a long range IR missile.
100% with you. nothing like breaking meta for those interesting kills.
So many people are following the meta that not following the meta is the new meta
His voice is so nice i legit fell asleep
I like how you end up explaining the plot idea and whats going on in the video to the viewer. others dont really do that
The quality of this video was mind-blowing. Keep it up!
2:27 Super sick transition bro!
Hi Drewski! If you loved the sneaky medium range R27ET, just know it isn’t exclusive to the SU-27 family. The Mig-29 can carry two of them as well.
Btw with vertical scan i found out you don’t have to spam it if you just hold the lock bottom it’ll work instead of having to break your finger trying to find a bandit
I need a video full of transitions like 2:30 👌
"Mountain Skier, not sure what to call it..." Nap of the Earth (NoE) is the term you're looking for. Keep up the great videos @OperatorDrewski!
Strigon Team, break formation.
Good job and good clean kills, Drewski!
It looks like a soviet dream, that became reality.
Your high pitch voice during the entirety of this video shows how much you've been playing with Ralfi
Don't tell my boss I cancelled a meeting for this video
LOL love what you said about the Tomcat guys launching missiles from 50 miles. They want that safe stand off kill to boast numbers, almost as if they are afraid to get close in, which the Tomcat is just as capable of the close in fight but perhaps the pilot skills are not. Good video, makes me want to start learning the DCS Flanker.
Me watching in 240p:
This looks incredible!
As it happens been learning the Flanker on DCS and just DCS in general recently and jumped on to youtube for some inspiration.
What inspiration :)
"1 minute ago"
*Yes.*
“5 hours ago”
Yes.
Little did I know Drewski would become one of my favourite DCS RUclipsrs, after having been one of my favourite Squad RUclipsrs while also being one of my favourite Tarkov RUclipsrs.
Bravo Drewski, Bravo.
I saw this on ralfidudes channel so I had a feeling this was coming
The Eurofighter Typhoon coming to DCS will also have a EO pod called the PIRATE. So that will also be a very good sneaky boi.
Together with the IRIS-T and maybe the AIM-132 😏
Dcs looks like the hardest sim ever!
I'm wrong guys?
xD
No, your not wrong
I wouldnt say hard, its very complex tho
no its just complex. the better understanding you have the better you will do.
It's complex, there is a learning curve but damn it's fun
16:04 No, you don't. You just have to hold it down until you get a lock. No spamming like a lunatic needed. Works also in boresight mode when you slew the circle around with ya target designator key/button, whatever. Just hold down the lock button while doing so.
57 seconds ago, this is godly good timing man
omg drew that transition at 2:31 was so clean!
If there is one thing the Russians do extremely well with aircraft it’s dogfighting ❤️❤️
Su27 is basically submarine in the sky he sneaks up launches a sneaky projectile and disappears lol
If only their pilots were as good as the aircraft
@@darrengarcia4937 well in this video drew got clapped by a friendly f-16 pilot xD
26:41 BEST PART 😂😂🤣 the guy's having fun in here
"I'm trying to kill people..."
You FBI agent: Hmm, yes, wrote that confession down
I don't know why I find this video so relaxing? Half the time there is a warning noise. But, a relaxing warning noise.
