grump that head on was epic. you guys should do more of these road base missions. maybe have multiple players vs a bigger wave attack (maybe ground targets) as a thing. airbases who needs those. where I come from we just need roads.
Mig-29 will turn almost as sharp as a f-18 on the ground if you hold down the nose wheel steering button while making your turn brotha. Key is, Is to hold down the button while your in the entire turn. love the vid!
I sincerely doubt the Ghost of Kyiv took off from the streets of Kyiv. There are like 3 airports around Kyiv. And I am pretty sure there are no cows anywehere near the city center. It's not India LOL
@@anatolilukanov7675 well unless you drink Russian cool-aid all the way someone is shooting at them unless you think they're just crashing their own planes and that ship sunk itself. Doesn't really matter if it's one plane our many
Let's hear for Grump proving himself wrong...🤣 That was pretty sharp flying by both of you. I think Grump's approach was more tactically sound..."don't be where they're looking" is always good advice when you're outnumbered.
Off roading in a MIG-29 looks to be a fun new sport. When taking off and landing on city roads PLEASE remember to obey all traffic laws and signal when turning. In addition, if you get stopped by a police officer please have your license, registration, and proof of insurance at the ready.
Lol I love how Cap is like “fair enough whatever, ok for today”. Like just really wanting the video to focus on DCS gameplay rather than politics hahaha
the mission that was on the ED forums is far too easy, i literally managed it without even getting locked up by just shooting them down in BVR mode. I'm gunna try it without the radar guided missiles like you did, see if that makes it anymore realistic
Best CAP quote...EVER!!!!! "Look at me doing 'a thing' with my pathetic life!" ROFLMAO C'mon CAP, don't sell yourself short. I'm sure you do a lot of 'things' with your, uh, life.😜😁
Only three minutes and twenty seven seconds in and already have a suggestion. More cows are needed. Line that road with cows like it's Portsmouth when a Navy ship departs!

Seeing the comments so far, I think some of you are missing the point of this challenge. It's not about what the Ghost of Kyiv is or if it's even real, it's based on what was reported and whether or not us, and you with the mission file, could shoot down what was claimed to be shot down by the Ghost of Kyiv. That is all.
@@anthonykearney608 I supposed you believe everything the MSM tells you. If so, you don't know the truth about what's going on in Ukraine. A higher level of morale for the Ukrainian army, is only going to get more of them killed.
Note that MiG-29 nosewheel range button works only with the flaps up. I don't expect you to remember but I'll make the same comment next time if necessary.
@@porckchopz5680 they literally trained with American pilots of the California national Guard - the 114th Fighter Wing. With more air time than a Russian pilot but far less pay.
To make this a little more entertaining, you should have added some ground air defense units that were shooting at everything in the sky. There have been reports of friendly fire incidents.
I know you didn't ask for the feedback of valued viewers, but I am offering it, anyway. I think that the Ghost of Kyiv is definitely... doesn't matter if he's real or not. If the story is in the heads of Russian pilots, then it's working.
If it was done. It was done as a pair. Using trap and bait tactics. From footage looks like it was Greywolf (RIP) that was wingmag....operating at the dizzy heights of Airshow minima. Ghost being more of a tree hugger
There was another video i watched a while ago, where the pilot would land on a road on a public server. He would wait for players to pass in front of him and use his passive thermal sensor with radar turned off to lock and fire IR missles, then return to the road and wait for more players to come by.
The ghost of keiv is a fiction created by the propaganda merchant... they lost there top SU27 pilot who came out of retirement to do combat missions but was shot down day 2 by its own air defenses. (grey wolf)..
If you trained that Ukrainian against USAF F-15's for 3 years first then put against some novice Russians which is what happened irl, than this may be more lifelike.
i think its very much possible. There's a difference between possible and likely, but it's definitely technically possible for one pilot do this. No one ever talks about the possibility of an INELEGANCE BREACH IN RUSSIAN AIR FORCE! I think something like this could only be possible with there was a massive intelligence breach from the Russians and Ukraine developed a incredible tactic to intercept the Russian planes, and it's not hard to believe Ukraine would involve there best pilot for all these missions. It's actually super possible if they knew where and when Russian fighters will be. NOT TO MENTION THERE'S 24 HOURS IN A DAY! NOT like they would need to fly very far 5 missions in 24 hours? i feel like that's hella possible..
The ghost is probably 100% legitimate, but a bit misunderstood, the deal here is an F-15 eagle does almost the exact same thing, they are a high-speed Strike Fighter, and their whole entire strategy is, they never engage anybody directly and they just use information to seek and destroy things from really far Beyond visual. It is basically like a sniper and the kills are not credited to him alone he is just being directed to a location and pulling a trigger, but he probably really did legitimately get all those kills because his missile was the one that hit, a new strategy they like to do transfer fire off a missile at absolutely nothing completely unlocked, it will then link to the radar system of a low flying aircraft or ground radar, and he can beam information to this missile with a EMF data transfer that can act almost like a laser beam. So sometimes they were really just killed by a dude in a Truck that seen them fly by.
