After a devistating failure of the infiltration Mission 'Scalpel', the Assault Carrier USS America was the only Ship left in her Carrier Group. And as if to add insult to injury, The enemy Carrier Group was on hot pursuit of the retreating America, taking out her Fighter compliment in the process, almost leaving her defenseless. Only the Pilot of the fairly new (for this) F-45 was able to escape the onslaught. Now with the full weaponry of multiple fighter squadrons and the rage over the loss of his comrades at his disposal, not to mention an equally pissed off Carrier Captain at his back, the Pilot decides to take the fight directly to the enemy.
I'm gonna assume it's the stealth capabilities of the F-45 that allows you to notch those missiles so easily because HOLY CRAP HOW DO YOU DO THAT SO EASILY
Imagine how terrified those ship crews were seeing all their guys get blown outta the air then slowly start losing ships and radar... And they still couldn't hit that damn F-45
today i was flying with the F-45 after not using it a while, when i was flying with some random guys when a missile fired they all broke away and i didnt, i straight up had COMPLETE FREE REIGN over the area, only manual triple a guns could dream about hitting me.
If your curious about evading missles of different types search "grim reapers missle evasion" into RUclips. The videos are for DCS but tricks should still work in VTOL VR. The first few vids should be about evading lethal range IR and Radar guided missles, then one about evading radar SAMs, and one for notching.
I’m not 100% shure but i think the pylons of the used aim-120’s make the f-45 easier to see on radar so when they are used up, you should jettison the remaining pylons thats empty ;)
@@leongao5120 i second this statement, but that can also be done by opening the bay doors by holding the trigger button with the AIM9X's on head track mode + trigger uncage.
"Excellent job, Captain. This is why we chose you to partake in this operation." As for now, Eyos; That is all. Thank you for making another badass video!
This just goes to show how much of a powerhouse the 45 is with the right pilot. Its an absolute air to ground machine. I don't care about your 30mm Gau 8 or how many bombs your 26 can carry. I dumb 24 a2g faf missiles from 40k feet up and 40nm away to blow up an entire Airfield simultaneously, land vertically at my carrier, and do it again, while youre "g- pulling" and "notching" the air defenses and beg ME to send accurate gps coordinates for your antique weapons. 5th gen all the way baby.
Really impressive, I'm definitely taking notes! I gotta ask, what is the reason for the maneuver you're doing when dumping countermeasures? like shown at 08:44. Does it help spread out the flares? Really interested in knowing more about this!
@@EyosYT Interesting, I would have thought by rolling like that you would increase your radar signature, showing your belly to the tracking radar. Is this a realistic maneuver?
@@pseudocoder78 particularly realistic? Uncertain. Notching itself is absolutely a real maneuver fighter pilots used to defeat some missiles, though. As for the radar signature, you are correct about the roll giving the enemy a greater RCS. However, in the case of VTOL VR, you want the missile to pitbull earlier so you have more time to chaff it off, so that increase in RCS actually helps a lot.
I know the F 35 has good stealth but... is it really realistic you would be able to get THAT CLOSE to the fleet without them detecting you before you launched your antiship missiles? At that point you had to have been within visual range.
Abso fuckin lutely I don't want to be only pro us but an f35 has the capability of what the b2 fa111 and f22 has taught the us combined with an array of sensors that would be able to do particle physics so ye it's the thing that will fuck you up from 100 miles out and not give a shit about your dinky ass fire control Radar
Not sure about irl, but in the game you can get within 4 miles of a radar without detection if you have no external pylons, keep your radar off and fly directly at it. The F35 even has a soft body that absorbs radar, so I wouldn't be surprised if this was accurate
The TGP and EOTS always have a laser that guides the munitions on and running whenever you use them. The laser mark button turns on the IR laser so that you can see it at night when you are using night vision.
Thank you for this! This will definitely help me dodge missiles in the 45 lol. I just die all the time. I enjoyed rhe content. If I may ask, how do you record your videos? I use geforce recording to just capture my desktop and use scam but i find that i cant get good footage for review especially when evading missiles. I.e i shoot a missile but also defend and want to review how i evade but it ends up recoeding rhe missile and i miss rhe show of defending lol. It looks like you are able to cspture all views and cut out piece by piece. Thank you in advance!
Lol. I do make missions every once in a while. The mission you saw was a mission that I made for the purpose of this video. Unfortunately, I no longer have the files for it.
ik im pretty late but what mission is this? is it part of the f 45 missions or is it from steam workshop?? recently got into vtol vr and was wanting to give this mission a shot
It does. In order to turn it on you have to go to your EOTS page and press the HEAD button. That will link the view from the electro-optical targeting system to your helmet-mounted cueing system allowing you to "see" through the plane.
@@MichaelWeber5237 Yeah it obscures your instruments. Typically head track is useful for trying to find targets but once you have the target locked there is little reason to keep it linked to your vision.
@@MichaelWeber5237 You also can't target anything while the EOTS is in head mode, so you can't shoot FAF missiles / laser bombs while looking through the plane.
Now try it with real players and they use the t-55, there wasn't really much competition because once you took down the bot fighter jets it was easy to go back rearm and take down the boats, plus it would be very fun to watch your perspective and the other players perspective on the game.
When you select a target on the TSD, an "EOTS" button will appear over the target data window. Pressing that button will automatically slave the EOTS (Targeting Pod) to point at your TSD target.
I use a third-party program called LIV first-person stabilizer. Unfortunately, that means that, unlike the in-game S-cam, it captures everything including the helmet. To maximize FOV and make it so that you don't have to see my helmet all video I turned off the helmet. This is not a problem when I'm in the 26, 55, or 42. However, in the 45 or helicopter because of the small size of the helmet and visor, it means that when I put the visor down I can see over it where the helmet would have once covered it up. So you get this odd clear sky, visor, clear sky sandwich that just looks bad in the video. One of these days the dev will fix it fingers crossed. I hope that answered your question I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I've jotted down the deets, I'm gonna try to remake this mission (and put it on steam if that's cool with you). I want to try it, not only in the 45, but also the 26, and especially the 24 now that it's out, just to see how they compare in such a tasking.
Incase you werent aware from what I know you don't need to use the radar on the f45 but PLEASE correct me if I am wrong because I havent been using my radar.
You are correct you should almost never use the radar in PvP. That said, in PvE it's not a big deal if you use the radar because the enemy doesn't react the same way players do when they see a stealth plane pinging them.
@@ssantiagosanchez3144 It makes the tracks you get on your TSD much more accurate than just the data you get from your RWR pings (even moreso with the new EWAR changes), so it can make your missiles track much more accurately.
I make my OBS canvas 2560x2880 and record two programs stacked on each other. The first program that I record is VTOL VR's S-Cam. I use Chase mode, FOV 40, and TGT. That gives me my third-person view. For my first-person perspective, I use a program called LIV first-person stabilizer. Though theoretically, you could steam VR view or Oculus mirror. I choose LIV because it gives me the best FOV and stabilization for looking around the cockpit.
emmmm, I remember that flares won't work well when your AB is turned on. But long range missiles also won't track IR signals so that's fine. No offense, just saying that.
If one was trying to be as theoretically efficient as possible with their countermeasures one could turn off their flares when defending radar-guided missiles and vice versa with IR-guided missiles. However, from a practical standpoint trying to fiddle with the switches to make sure that you are only releasing chaff or flares is unreasonable. I, like most people, just leave the chaff and flares on regardless of the incoming missile type. That way, no matter what, I'm releasing the proper countermeasure to defeat the incoming missile.
@@EyosYT You are right and in fact, the chances of facing heat-seeking missiles are quite rare. Most situations involve BVR combat or encounters with SAM. Close-quarters dogfights, like those we often seen in classic air combat video games, are actually not very common in this game. Furthermore, it's the same for me that identify the type of incoming missile while RWR alerting then make quick decisions to switch off chaff or flare is indeed somewhat unrealistic.
I don't have the mission file anymore. The map itself is called Calius - Ocean Map and you can find it by looking it up in the workshop. It's just a pure ocean map though so nothing fancy.

I'm gonna assume it's the stealth capabilities of the F-45 that allows you to notch those missiles so easily because HOLY CRAP HOW DO YOU DO THAT SO EASILY
For radar guided if you how no external weapons yes it does
It certainly helps! But even with a fully loaded F26 you can defeat a missile while beaming with a single chaff if you time it right
@@LeeAndersonMusicyou can beat AI jet missiles with a 10g pull.
