small correction, at 7:35 I read unmanned as unarmed, when referring to the UAV. ignore what I said, cyclops refers to any UNMANNED aerial vehicle not, unarmed as I said in the video.
Keep ‘em coming! Like I said before, I prefer your videos for tutorials than someone like the Grim Reapers. No disrespect to them but they speed through everything too quickly. Remember, the best way to learn is See it, Hear it, Do it.
Thanks GS, just what I was asking for in the last video. I hope your channel blows up, I really like your content, the radio chatter, the troops cheering when you come in and save the day. Brings back memories of the good old days.
Awesome dude! I have never before come across a tutorial like this in all the years I've been watching DCS and BMS videos. Very, very handy to have seen.
Just got into DCS recently and these 2 year old videos have been lifesavers! I love mil and flight sim games because these types of things go across the whole genre.
Really enjoying your educational vids man! This one in particular would be really helpful for someone transitioning from SP to MP. Just one small detail: "Buster" I believe would be a directive to fly at maximum military speed i.e. no afterburner whereas "Gate" would mean maximum speed with afterburner. Keep it up S!
One I didn't hear you mention, and to be honest I don't recall you using, is "No joy" used to indicate that you have lost visual track/ situational awareness of your opponent in a dogfight.
Growling Sidewinder, really good content of your videos! I really like your channel because you show and explain the complicated things from a beginner perspective. I hope that you create more tutorials and allows more people to join the DCS World. Cheers!!!
I know this video was posted a long time ago but I have found myself watching your videos alot, your explanation to these tutorials are great, they are easy and simple to understand but still a bit in depth. Great video and I hope one day your channel will get more subscribers!
How am I didn't saw this video, brother? HOW?! Very cool stuff, I recently finded on Wikipedia the Brevity Codes but I had some doubts about what some does or not. Not anymore, thanks to you again! Thanks buddy!
Some context on SCRAM: it is an acronym for Safety Control Rod Axe Man, and derives from Dr. Enrico Fermi and the Chicago Pile-1 experimental reactor, which had control rods operated by a set of ropes and pulleys that came back to a single "master rope" anchored to a cleat against a wall of the control enclosure. Dr. Fermi's English was somewhat accented, and he wanted to get the command out quickly when it became necessary to do an emergency shutdown of the reactor. Someone suggested the first letter of every word, which was much easier for Dr. Fermi to say, and the rest was history.
“Angels”. As I understand it Angels was originally intended to be referenced to a pre-determined altitude. If the Angels altitude was 1,000 feet, “Angels 5” would be 6,000 feet above sea level. Bullseye and Angels were a way to do a pseudo-code if comms were not reliably encrypted. I believe the Angels reference in DCS is always sea level. With more reliable encrypted voice, this may be the case in the real world also.
Good stuff! Your vids are great. For your consideration, Sierra Hotel a.k.a. Shit Hot is less often used to describe a dangerous zone and more to describe something as totally badass. If you do something utterly amazing, that would be Sierra Hotel. :)
Thanks for clearing all that up :D I like it when there is a sentence used in context. Like how do I use buster, or saunter? "Crab is bingo fuel and sauntering, RTB to mother."?? The context on how to use is really helpful.
Not sure if you're going to see this but, I've watched this a few times already and I just wanna say THIS IS AN AMAZING VIDEO!!! Would love to see a part 2 with other codes you didn't include here, for example.. I'm wondering what nails means, and what do you say when firing an A-G rocket, and when dropping JDAM's?
thanks a lot man, I'd deff be interested in making a part 2 of this video. thanks for the idea. and keep an eye out, might be out sooner than you think.
If you mentioned it I missed it, but "cherubs" refers to altitude in hundreds of feet, so obviously less than "angels one." I've never actually heard it used and I imagine it would really only apply to helos. Back in the day when Vikings ruled the sky (a little joke there) it's possible cherubs could have been used during the prosecution of a sub target or when checking out a surface contact, but I don't recall ever hearing it.
Your voice (speech tone) has definitely changed over the period of time. But the coolness, calmness and soothing of your tone is still remains the same.
Thank for your excellent video. As a french, I smiled when you said exocet. Say it like Exocette. Like Juliette. For your information. I will make you a real baguette my friend ;) lol
If I lock up a bogey and request a BRA from AWACS (and the bogey is actually a friendly air craft) would AWACS respond with, "Buddy Spike," or does that only apply between currently flying pilots? (Also, for the sake of argument, let's pretend that we aren't in radio contact with said bogey.)
Old comment, but you'd say to the awacs "declare target, my 12" (or wherever he is relative to you) and he should give you the aircraft type and whether it's friendly or not. If you know the bearing and distance of the bogey from you, you could give the awacs that info too for accuracy.
I recently installed DCS and I'm intimidated by how many things I have to know XD (even more by the fact that everything in the cockpit is "clickable" so I can break everything) guess I'll just stick to arma 3 koth. But good vid anyway now I can play smartass on arma servers shouting SEAD when im getting fired at by AA.
IFF cant identify enemies. It can only identify friendlies otherwise its unkown. If unkown, you have to visual identify it because it could be a friendly which IFF has a malfunction.
Question: What is "Hot vs Cold?" I I think I know what "Nose Hot" or "Nose Cold" means: if the radar is on or off. But I hear others saying "'I'm hot!!" or "I'm Cold!!" Is that the same thing??
I know this comes late, but you were talking about Bogey and Bandits. What you didn't explain is that just because you've identified a bogey as a bandit, this does not give you authorization to engage until bandit goes Hostile, then you're authorized to engage.
mmmm bandits ARE hostile. Things that are NOT hostile are Bogeys (unknown), when you call something a bandit you are by extension saying it has already been identified as hostile, the BANDIT has been identified as hostile either by you, your wingman or your AWACS. your ability to engage comes down to the ROE of your mission not the identification of your bogey/bandit.
I just wanna know how to silence or communicate with what keeps repeating to me the entire time I play online. "Chevy 1-1 something blah blah blah. After I've been cleared for take off. OVER & OVER & OVER. When I watch other people. I do not hear this crap in the their videos.
small correction, at 7:35 I read unmanned as unarmed, when referring to the UAV. ignore what I said, cyclops refers to any UNMANNED aerial vehicle not, unarmed as I said in the video.
You corrected it in-video. The trolls can find something else to dork out on.
Your knowledge is impressive. Did you fly in the military?

At 11:00, 'buster' is max continuous, i.e. military power...NOT afterburner. The brevity for that is 'gate'

yes sirr such as a sierra hotel carrier break. thats my bad should have clarified that in the video.
Loving the vids, my new fav channel =D
Kav thank you I’m glad ur enjoying them man. Ur support is much appreciated
Another small correction needs to be added. "Shack" means "target hit with expended munitions" and "Splash" is "a confirmed downing of an aircraft"
old comment i know but from what i can see shack is confirmed kill on ground target and splash is the same but for air target
I'm book marking this one , thanks
Love the vid man, btw one I didn't see in there was cherubs, which is altitude in hundreds of feet.
aha ya I realized a while after that I forgot that one.
Flight Level one three zero...13000 feet
Thank you for this, just getting into DCS and want to go full on servers :) Very helpful
TheWatson83 ur very welcome
First time on Blue flag last night put it into practice, loved every moment.. :D :D
NAILS = Radar Pings you (very often due to AWACS)
SPIKE = Radar Locked Onto you not yet fired

Bullseye is a pre-identified sphere of activity of a area location essentially.
Good stuff, thanks!

@@Majima_Nowhere Thank you!
You mentioned unguided bombs and laser guided bombs, but what about others such as the GBU-31 JDAM?
Pitbull - is there an indication on instruments or the HUD when a missile is Pitbull, or do you just estimate it?
Super Thank you
Funny or not, scram is also emergency shutdown of a nuclear reactor I believe.
22:00 Dont aircraft also emit radiations? Why don't we use the HARM against them as well?
They move too fast for a harm to hit them

I know this vid is old but do you say pickle ripple if you have dumb bombs while you are rippling and or paveway ripple for LGBs
you just say ripple lol
Any chance of linking a document of these terms for printing off for easy reference?
Possibly a basic question, what is the use of raygun and buddy spike when you have IFF?
Is there a situation where IFF is off?
IFF cant identify enemies. It can only identify friendlies otherwise its unkown. If unkown, you have to visual identify it because it could be a friendly which IFF has a malfunction.
Thank you. Any chance of doing a Mirage III/V vs Sea Harrier over the Falklands? I've just never understood how the RNAS managed to hold off the FAA.
How do you communicate multiple bullseyes? Can you preset multiple bullseyes?
Question: What is "Hot vs Cold?" I
I think I know what "Nose Hot" or "Nose Cold" means: if the radar is on or off.
But I hear others saying "'I'm hot!!" or "I'm Cold!!" Is that the same thing??
Hot menas you and another aircraft is head to head. Cold is when he turns away or turns past 45 degrees
I might've missed it, but any idea what "VID" means?
Visual ID
1:56 it’s actually “Bruh” and it means I’m going down
Do you have a video for A2G munitions like you do for missiles?
Is there one of gps guided bombs or would that be pickle?
paveway I believe for smart bombs.
Growling Sidewinder thanks, i was curious on pickle vs paveway vs a 3rd term.
Pickle is a term for weapons release.
Q: is your call sign “Sidewinder”, and “growling” is what you do, or G.S. Is the call??
Is there a brevity call for launching unguided rockets
It generally isn't necessary because your buddies don't have to worry about unguided rockets accidentally locking on to them
What is the metric equivalent to Angels?
Is there a term for the launch of unguided rockets?
20:30 really? I would think no visible barge damage would refer to a friendly checking the plane to see if you got shot up or not.
Got a discord page? Specific for server details?
When AWACS gives me a BRA ingame is that in reference from me or from the bullseye?
BRA is from you. They may also give a B/E as well.
25:04 ORDINANCE MTBC :)
pop up groups i.e hog 11 wizard pop up group ... what does it actually means??
Basically it’s a previously unknown/unseen group within a briefed (range) criteria. Usually seen by surveillance or fighter radar.
New contact on scope. They just popped up for the first time on radar. New group popup radar contacts. Haha just noticed this is yrs old. 🤦♂️
