Thats cool. You guys should do a MIG-21 series sometime soon.
i have to admit never thought you and devil would play together but glad you did
AND GAT
IASGATG1 who?
ralfidude The shooter of that 20 mike mike.
Before Finland got the F-18s, I used to watch these Mig-21s dogfight over a lake (Onkivesi) at my grandma's place. Going super sonic, you'd look in one direction, then catch something in the corner of your eye going low over the lake. It looks awesome in real life imo. Not as cool as the Mig-25, but still it has that brutal Soviet look.
@@nonyabuziness5082 Reading comprehend much?
My rubber garden is also in the flight path of a fighter OCU/airbase of IAF, used to see MiG-21s over the skies in the 1990s and early 2000s now it is Su-30MKI Flankers.
@@nonyabuziness5082 What kind of idiot comments on a 7 year old post?
"If engine fire, turn off the engine and immediately abandon the aircraft"
+Theonlypayne Lol, when stated like that I somehow read it with a heavy Russian accent
+Theonlypayne "Whatever is the problem, turn the engine off, drink some vodka, and scream URAAAA while diving into the ground"
Labels were on for some of those first person shots as when you are learning a new aircraft it is a WISE DECISION to reduce as much difficulty as possible. I am not training my mind or eye sight to spot targets. I am training to use the weapon systems accurately. After you learn these things and are alright with it, THEN it's OK to turn them off.
Will you be covering DCS Eurofighter Typhoon when it comes out
if it comes out... But sure! If I get it for free maybe...
It's a Multi-role aircraft as well so another contender to fill the void in DCS?
Shame most servers don't let you use labels. Seems unfair as in real life pilots have 20/20 vision, while we are usually stuck with 1080p. It's like a semi blind pilot going to war. Just doesn't work very well.
TS1225X Typhoon... WHAT??!!
I FUCKING LOVE YOU DCS HURRY THE FUCK UP AND TAKE MY MONEY
Didn't you know? Soviet pilots don't need fancy warning lights. The ghost of Stalin tells them what's wrong
One of the best sim videos I've watched. You outdid yourself here! Well done!
thanks
Wow this is really well made. It has kind of a documentary feel to it. I love it!!!
I've been waiting for this. I flew for a few years in Vietnam not too long ago and loved to watch the Vietnamese airforce 21s doing their circuits and bumps. The speed they need over the threshold was something to behold. One of my old Captain's was a Russian trained 21 pilot, he would just shudder when recounting his antics!
The VPAF hasn’t flown MiG-21s for a long time. Their Air Force replaced them with Su-30s and Su-27s (training version) and still fly older Su-22s...
Cant beleive i watched this video on your channel 9 years ago. This is still one of my most favorite planes. Its the only true hotrod of the fighter jet generations.
Ralfi, I gotta say, you have outdone yourself with this video. Informative, entertaining, wonderful music selection and great sense of humour! Needless to say, I can't wait for your future videos!
Really awesome video. Great watch. Thanks a bunch and keep on rocking! It made my day. Cheers.
The cockpit looks beautiful and stunning and I really love the shaking xD
that cowboy bepop music :D
SXcite yeah I noticed too
You obviously spent a lot of time on this Ralfi, well done and thanks!
Fantastic video! I really wasn't interested in this aircraft even with all the hype surrounding it, this video and the fun flying you show in it has completely changed my view on this bird!
Adding The Real Folk Blues in there brought back some old childhood memories. :) Awesome video, and you've gained a subscriber.
Great review thanks a ton. But thanks more for introducing me to The New Law!
Ralfi you don't only make great, interesting videos but you have some of the best music featured on RUclips. Thank you sir! Keep it up!
this was a brilliant review of this aircraft! so much so that I decided to actually buy it! thanks ralfidude! you're tops!
Love the style of your video! Great work!
That was the perfect amount of serious and comedy mixed in one video. 10/10 5 stars and a thumbs up ralfi.
Ralfi...you sir are a master at this. Well done, sir. Well done.
Great video, and good use of satire to confirm some of my initial thoughts about the mig-21, and some good dogfight footage. Leatherneck did an awesome job on the cockpit. About the landings: I've talked to someone who owns a mig-21 and he described landing much like you demonstrated......line it up, trust the instruments and pray for the best. You basically have to look out your 10 and 2 o'clock down low to judge the decent rate just before touching down.
Dude I love your vids, the cut-ins are hilarious
This was the best video of the mig-21 so far. Hell it might be your best video so far. Very well done Ralfi :)
love this video man, you should make more of these. Thank you for the upload
I love her so much. I've been playing her about as long as this video's been out.
love the choices of music. Cowboy Bebop for the win. And nice that your flying with DDG. You both should put up DCS vids more often
Top video Ralfi! Would love to see some more of these.
awesome video, good amount of giggles keep it up ralfi
It's probably the best module because the MiG 21 is just such a fun plane to fly. It's challenging enough to hold your attention, capable enough to be somewhat useful and is fast and fun to fly. It's simple but hard to master, because its a mach 2 capable 50s design it really feels direct and like you are actually flying something.
Your comments about the flight model are exactly what I experienced the first time I flew this last night. XD. I actually had butterfiles in my stomach, which is weird because this is a sim. The aircraft felt like it was about to do something I wasn't planning on at any second, but it never did. Not an easy aircraft to fly well, at least for me. I really enjoyed this.
wow ahaha looks like a movie ! LoL i cant wait to see some more videos with this plane !
Amazing video ralf keep up the good work.
Excellent video Ralfi, you have a new subscriber.
By the way, nice touch with the Cowboy Bebop end song. ;-)
Very nice review Ralfi. I'll be getting the 21 as soon as possible. I know it's never going to be as much sheer unadulterated fun as the Hog, but I'm going to fly it and pretend I've got a BAC Lightning. :) Looking forward to your next S&Gs vid. Fly safe.
loved this interview
Sweeeet! I don't know how I missed this vid, but it was awesome. Hope you make more of these! Convinced me to buy it :p
I watched alot of mig 21 DCS videos,but yours i enjoy the most.Good work and keep going,im happy i subd
I love you for using Cowboy Bebop music, Ralfi.
The real folk blues... thank you for that mate, you make my day :D
Thx for playing with devil:) one of my favs ( u too)
such a quality video. editing and voiceover is excellent, background music is great too
4th time watchin it. and i dont even play dcs
Well I did not expect to hear Cowboy Bebop Music in here :D
Nice video !
That looks amazing.
Cowboy Bebop soundtrack mixed up with all those footages...
I'm in heaven!
Ralfi, I'm sure you have a LOT of bloopers and such while making this. Can't wait to see them in SnG
Nice markings on '21. These specific markings represent Serbian Airforce, I thought I would never see any of them in games.
Nice video btw,cheers!
awesome vid ralfi glad u got together with DDG :)
love the real folk blues and the mig!
The music in the background lets your subconsciousness fall in love with this plane.
Nice! I really enjoyed this video.
Watching this at the end of 2021 is a trip 😂
DCS has come a loooooong way
That was a pretty nice review Ralfidude thanks for it makes me want to take a crack at the mig 21 now.
Just noticed in the official trailer the Fishbed shuts down a Viper, and after your review, I'm up to the challenge! Can't wait to buy it via Steam when available! :)
Nice zero 7 - look up!
watching for the 20'ts time. i dont have the module im not intrested in harder=better view of things but how is the video made and what you do in it are just beatiful. well done!
I loved the video, I am probably going to buy the MIG-21 now lol
That.... was actually a very well produced video. Good job dude, was entertaining as shit to watch.
Very well made video!
Yeah the real folk blues ! Nice vid
Great video,I hope you will upload some missions with it,my country(Hungary) operated this fighter for two decades so it really brings back a lot of nostalgia.
Was watching Cowboy Bebop, and when the outro played, I remembered this vid had it, so went back to watch it again 😅
great review!
That scrubs clip had me rolling. Wish you would've had the whole thing haha
I lost it @ Seatbelts! =D
'Lovin it
I'm really hoping for other Vietnam War era aircraft to come out for DCS in the future. I read that there are plans for the A-4M and for one reason or another hoping for an A-6 entry. Great review by the way.
Enjoyed that one. Love the DCS games. FC3, A-10C are just great. gonna get Sabre and this here. Gonna take a while to study it all....also laughed and said the same about the headshake :D Also laughed about the "3 thums up" 3 thumbs...2 plus...oh...yeah *looks down* :)
I literally LOLed at the Cleveland 'No' part at ~3:40
LOL XDXDXDXD
OMG, that's gonna be great. Dunno if you can call it a multi role fighter by design, but it sure gets used for everything. Some great videos on RUclips of it in ground attack.
Very nice. I hope that Leatherneck or some other studios will make some modules that add similar and contemporary fighters to the MiG-21 such as the English Electric Lightning, F104-Starfighter or Mirage III.
Wow, I haven't played anything remotely close to a realistic simulator for a while (I'm talking x-plane on a mac like 15+ years ago, way too complex for a young teen). While I'm immensely interested in some of these older jet's, it gets tiring to seek blurry lo-res documentaries in languages that I don't understand just to get a better idea of what the planes were all about. Thanks for putting these videos up and editing them for maximum entertainment, and in bite size chunks too. For many of us without the time (or skill) to invest in learning these old jets, this might be as close as we'll ever come to being in the cockpit. Sub'ed.
Cool video, very interesting to watch although I don't play DCS. Finding out the nuts and bolts of military equipment is always interesting, even if said nuts and bolts come from a sim rather than the real thing.
Maybe the mig 21 would be more fun to dogfight in if there was a similar quality F-4 module for DCS.
Would be awesome to get the F-4. None of the 3rd party developers seem to eager to make it though.
I do think the F-4 would be superior. It's BVR aim-7's will probably destroy most mig-21's before they get close.
gkooistra91
Military planners were saying the same thing around that time and ended being very wrong. The Phantom didn't have good BVR target verification capabilities so that would probably play out the same way in DCS.
Eboreg2 Not really just that. The missiles would chase the Sun or just go stupid right away. That was the biggest problem. But if they met head to head, the MIG would go down. I tried fighting vs an F-4 in the 21 and it was hopeless. We both just kept turning and turning, nothing came of it. He was on me the whole time. That and his two engines gave him serious power to outclimb me every time. It was just unfair...
ralfidude
I guess if we really want to put equal counterparts to the MiG-21 in DCS, we could always look forward to Mirages. Still, I'm thinking that we could probably set up some Vietnam-era missions where the 21s were mainly used in a form of guerrilla warfare.
gkooistra91 Those missiles were useless. In Vietnam AIM-7E Sparrow achieved 12 - 15% kill probability and AIM-9E Sidewinder achieved only 8 - 10%. An F-4 carried 4x AIM-7 and 4x AIM-9, on average you'd have to fire ALL your missiles to get a single kill. Later models fixed most of the issues but the Vietnam war was long since over, AIM-9L in British use in the Falklands achieved 70 - 90% kill probabilities.
Mig-21 doing a cobra
I've seen everything
SpaceKraken, it is an old bug of the flight model in 1,2 version of DCS.
I enjoyed watching
It is so much fun to watch your footages. Every single one! No matter what's the topic! Thank you.
My plan is to watch them all. In doubt twice or more.
There occures a problem: There is no time left to fly the own aircrafts... Don't give a shit! Where is the next footage? I'm addicted!
Gotta love that Bebop soundtrack.
The PiP was just 👌
Favorite module in dcs up to date. We just need some realistic/applicable GCI, and a campaign (or wistfully a theatre)
I'd hate to fly that thing for real, but the sim looks awesome!
Yooooo, I really didn't expect cowboy bebop OST here. That hit way too hard
still it is an awesome module in 2020! I love it!
Really cool video, I enjoy it ;)
Cool vid man
Ralfi could you please provide us with the startup guide and quick tips for dummies like on the A-10C, those vids helped me alot perfecting my knowledge on the Warthog. keep up the good work!
Nice music choices
Quality video
make this video was a nice idea, keep it up! :)
I'm waiting for the F-5E Tiger II. Would love to see how it stacks up against the MiG-21bis.
Who knew devil and ralfi played together.... That my friend is awsome!
He's a very chill dude.
Nice one
He!he!he! :D :D
...those pictures with earthquakes were a nice touch!...
VERY nice!
Thanks x uploading! :)
Thumb up & subbed! - Have a nice day everybody! :)
Man flying mig-21 and listening to those tracks that you've used in this video is such a joy! Makes me wonder how people find this kind of music. Have you got more?
thousands
You weren't kidding about it being straight out of a horror movie, especially at 3:28
Perfect use of aint nobody got time.
Dope cowboy bebop real folk blues music
Well done ralfi, give yourself a pat on the back.. awesome editing and great video ! Any intel about fishbed in the dcs-store ?
1st of october in the steamstore. Look it up. Probably 2 weeks before that on the ED site.
"See you later, Soviet Space Cowboy."
Mig 21, the drift car of the fighter world
damn, you should really do some more cowboy bebop (seatbelts) themed dogfights! it brings to awesome things together
