1999 Op Allied Force: Yugoslav Transport Helicopters Shoot Down US Drones! | DCS Reenactment

- Опубликовано: 11 июн 2024
- During the 1999 Operation Allied Force campaign, one of the preferred Yugoslav tactics to destroy NATO drones involved the use of transport helicopters in air-to-air combat role. The first RQ-5 Hunter drone lost by the US Army in the campaign was apparently shot down by a Mi-8 helicopter flying alongside, with the door gunner firing a 7.62 mm machine gun.
Today we re-enact this event with the added challenge of NATO fighters defending the drones.

As a retired ground pounder, I would check whether the door gun had ammo by looking to see if the ammo belt was feeding into the gun. Just a technique.
I figured the "reload" he's talking about is clearing a jam but it seemed like his DShK was jamming like every 20 rounds which is fucking crazy. Maybe it's simulating g-force stresses on the feed because they're doing really weird maneuvers, but even then would the gunner actually need to open up the feed every time?
@@athodyd if you get a jam in that type, the thing you do is pop the feed tray and look for brass or links which were out of position and blocking the mechanism, close the tray when it is clear and try again. Takes two seconds, most of the time. Old guns which have been poorly maintained and heavily used, like those assigned to a school, are a real PITA. I have seen am M60 which only fired single shot.
i see simba has mastered the retreating blade maneuver
The amount of spam bots in these comments is sad
Report them. They all have the same avatar.
They're getting worse too.
Bots seem to love videos about drones.
I swear Simba Best Pilot!?!?! You two crack me up, but are a awesome team!!!!
Flying Storm Troopers!?!?!
Woohoo...woke up to pee and found a new vid.
Greetings from Australia
oof not being able to look down the sights is rough!
You dont IRL.
Thats amazing im Serbian and i didn't even know that this happened !
18:25 one cannot see a drone's soul directly, but you can sometimes see its effects. after being ejected, the lifeless husk tumbles into the ground.
Thats an interesting topic! 👀 Hi from Serbia!
I wonder if Ukrainians use this tactic nowadays
Amazing video ❤
How is the gulf war uss Iowa thing going grim?
Must be a way to adapt for a Sunday Funday
I wonder who is more dangerous to that town. The drones or the helicopters shooting it up trying to hit the drones.
Cap likes shooting below the target. rarely seeing the forward sight =shooting low.
Drones must have the same damage modeling as the Fw190A8
"I like hard things..." Cap's new T-shirt design will be in the merch store soon! Video Valued by Valued Viewer - Fly Army! WOOT WOOT!! 🚁
I hope it says "I like hard things giggidy."
I knew I was going to find this type of comment ...
"Wiggle your gun..."
could these helicopters have a gunner on both sides? in games/movies war documentaries/news etc ,i only ever see one door gunner. surely 2 gunners mean more kickass? thats science fact. please educate me.
I glanced at the thumbnail and thought this said "Simping for US Drones in Kosovo"
happy birthday to my uncle
Was Cap dead?
Will his body be found?
Will there be a part 2?
🤔
seems like the AI gunners are best at leading the target to get more shots to hit. CAP was all over the place with spraying and preying.
Cap, I just saw this video and wanted to get your input on this.
"The F-35 Lightning II is already well known for its stealth and advanced data fusion capabilities, but when it comes to defending against inbound surface-to-air missiles, the Joint Strike Fighter has another technological trick up its sleeve: the ALE-70 Towed Decoy."
Video here: ruclips.net/video/YDsSEjERmME/видео.html
Roger, this is an old thing. Eurofighters have been using towed decoys for 20 years. As far as I know it's not been tested in combat.
Do you reckon the slavs cheered like that back in the day?!! 🤣
1992 there was no Yugoslavia. Do you mean Serbian?
27 April 1992: the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is formed
cap; i love hard things

You beat me to it!
