Always go down when the singer’s high. Get in the weeds, get something between you and the tracking radar and if nothing else, get God’s G to help outrate the telephone pole of doom. DCS SA-2 overperform a bit iirc.
I was mostly just mesmerized watching the smoke trail tracking towards me. I managed to shake the first missile, but this one tracked true.
I’ll try it in VR next.
Take 2, flown in VR.
Magnum!
Unfortunately the Shrike isn’t a great missile, at least in my hands…
CBU’s away…
nice run with the CBU’s
Hey @PaulRix, I used to think of you as a pacifist, but the Phantom seems to have released your inner Dr. Evil
F— that zipcode in particular.
What can I say… the Phantom makes me want to blow stuff up…
That run was just 4 CBU 87’s. I tried it with 8 and it momentarily brought my new PC to its knees.
Have you tried the cluster dispensers? They are absolutely glorious.
I haven’t ….but that sounds like something I should try later today!
I’m feeling a little guilty that I really want to drop some napalm…
Low level CBU passes will be awesome in the F4!
Cant wait till i get to make some.
I was impressed how you went after the SAM site at Groom early.
Yes… Yes they are (with added evil laugh)
yep, give the dispensers a throw, go with the full load with 513 bomblets per launcher
Some more practice at my SA2 training site. After my success with the CBU87’s I figured that an SA2 site would more than likely have had some AAA protection, so I added 4 x ZU23’s which made things a lot more interesting…
Running in with 4 x Shrike ARM’s. It seems that the best way to take out a SA2 Fan Song radar is to stay low until you are within it’s minimum engagement distance.
Popping up… You can see the residual smoke from a missile launch that I was able to evade.
Inverted at the top of the pull up, I pulled the nose onto the target…
Rolled level and launched two Shrikes…
Amazingly, at least one of them found the mark… the ZU23’s seem a bit upset!
Flew a few ILS approaches into Andersen AFB. It’s a not easy but the ADI and flight director work absolutely fantastic in the F-4E
I was too occupied to take any screenshots during approach but I still got something:
The 17nm TACAN arc doesn’t look incredible but it’s alright I guess.
I also innitially overshot the ILS a bit but managed to correct it quickly. The first time I looked for the runway was when I intercepted the glideslope at around 7nm and the line up was pretty decent already. Got behind the power curve at the end but managed to save it
Edit: Jester was very happy though. I got a “Man that was smooth” or something along those lines.
yeah, got the same from him on last fight club… then drifted and rolled her over… Jester had no chance to comment on that
