DCS World - MiG-21 - Syria, September 1973 - Prelude to a War

[@gorka7824]

I never get tired of watching your videos man. Your selection of battles, simply excellent 👌

[@showtime112]

Thank you very much! There's more to come soon.

[@weissrw1]

Wow!! That was exciting. Those Mig 21s can really sneak up on you!!!! Watch your 6!

[@showtime112]

Oh yeah! In reality, most shootdowns appear to be result of someone sneaking up on their victims. In DCS it is a bit harder to achieve :) Thanks for commenting!

[@danstone4893]

Your videos are highly entertaining. The sounds of the jets and video are amazing!

[@showtime112]

Thank you very much, keep watching!

EXCELLENT. No more comments...Thanks ¡¡¡¡¡

[@apflyingamer3623]

That's a nice one! Haven't watched your channel for a while but I see you've been busy.

[@showtime112]

Good to have you back! And that you like the video! But you ain't seen nothing yet 😊

[@Tamburello_1994]

Wanted to see you land that MiG -- otherwise fine mission.

[@showtime112]

I usually include landing footage in my mission videos. This time the replay track was completely messed up, showing the plane just randomly hitting the ground instead of landing. I didn't feel like redoing it and thought maybe people didn't care much about that. Maybe I was wrong :) Thank you for your comment!

[@LockOnNow]

There are a lot of DCS creators out there on KZbin but only a few who are also the Salt in the Soup like you are. Cause you bring up the historic aspect also, wich others lag of out there. The Problem with DCS is they lag of jets from the 60ths like the IAF Mirage IIIC during the six day war 1967 or a North American F-100 Super Sabre, Republic F-105 Thunderchief and Phantom F-4 from Vietnam era just to name a few and they should really get some Maps like Vietnam and Israel. Hope your channel grows cause you deserve more the 200 Subscribers> Keep up the great work.

[@showtime112]

Thank you so much for such a positive comment! I believe that if some people don't like history, it's just because it's not taught the right way. Well, I'm trying to find the right way. And yes, lots if assets are missing from DCS but many are coming. Mirage III, A-7 and F-4 are in the pipeline. In the meantime, we do with what we have. If Top Gun the movie could use F-5 for 'MiG-28', then I guess using P-47 instead of A-1 isn't too bad 😁 Keep watching!

[@haedubabaganush]

interesting fight and nice video. Of course the passage of time has shown that the Israeli tally was closer to the truth. They did lose a mirage, but no RF-4 was shot down. Unarmed, they simply extended away from the fight. Cudos to the syrians for showing the courage to confront the israeli's who were probing the syrians AD systems as the russians had supplied them with some new missiles, and significantly, after this encounter, the russians sent the first SAM-6 system to syria and a bettter Mig-21 model to replace the loses. I can't remember which variant. The modified mirage the israeli's flew was a very good aircraft and very capable in a dogfight. As we now know...those SAM-6's were to prove very costly to the IAF in the 73 war until they were dealt with.

[@showtime112]

Thank you very much for your comment. Btw, Phantom is my favorite plane so I like to believe they got away. In the future I intend to make some videos about missions flown by Israeli Skyhawks against Syria and PLO. I hope you check back to watch those as well.

The Mirage III Look More Like Mirage 2000

[@showtime112]

Probably because it is Mirage 2000 😁 When I did this video, I had no other way to simulate Mirage III. In the meantime, a Mirage III mod with Israeli skin has appeared and that's what I'm using in my latest video.

Hey man! I dont know if you were aware of this but your mic is a touch on the hard to hear side. Amazing video though my guy!

[@showtime112]

Hello! Someone else commented a similar thing. When I listen, it seems OK but I think it might have something to do with the engine noise in the cockpit. It might be drowning the voice. I will try to put it down in the future so the voice is clearer. Thank you for your comment and keep watching!

Track Ir is a great investment, pretty sure they are cheap now.

[@showtime112]

Well, yes and no. The original Track IR still costs its own weight in gold. Delanclip is much cheaper but if you don't live in the UK, postage will cost you more than 50 percent. The only really cheap option is DIY. I actually have all the components for it. I just need to make myself finish it. Removing the IR filter from the web camera is the part that scares me a bit 😁 Thank you for your comment!

[@-Zevin-]

@@showtime112 There actually is a Chinese trackIR copy that I hear is basically identical to the original track IR and runs on the same software. If you don't mind buying the Chinese knockoff version. Goes by the name TrackNP5 in the US and retails around 60-70 usd in the US.

When you disguise Mirage 2000 as Mirage lll, you like to win easy... 😎

[@showtime112]

That wasn't the point at all. The 2000 was simply the only choice. And the video was done the other way around. From the final result backwards. It aimed to emulate the historical events. Other channels do the opposite, they start with a historical framework and then just let the thing play out.

[@ashtonbailey3970]

We know Israel lost some 300 aeroplanes just a few days later with Arab losses negligible by comparison so much so that IAF was ground for most of the war there after so a claim by Israel of 12 kills & 1 loss is definitely bogus. The Syrian claim is consistent with what followed later..so I will go by the Syrians

[@stanleylaham8932]

Syrian Air défenses were under strict orders not to illuminate any intruding Israeli warplanes with the newly acquired Sam 6 missiles. The Sam 6 came as a complete surprise when the war started the following October 6. The Israelis mistakenly interpreted Syrian troop movements in the interim as a Syrian show of force because of this incident and not the real thing. It is speculated that this air engagement was specifically for that deception.

[@beaconsharman7159]

In 1971 there was dogfight in india CHANDIGARH pakistan plane was shot down , i saw it ,but i dont know what kinda planes they were

What about the 12 Mig 21s that were shot over a span of 5 min?

There were many dogfights between 1967. and 1973. Sadly, main Israeli fighters of that era, Mirage III and Phantom are not available in DCS as proper modules. If any of these two should appear, I'll be all over it!

Kind of :) At that point, that was the only way to represent Mirage III. In the meantime, I found a mod for the real Mirage III with IDF/AF skin available. So, it should be a bit more real in future videos.
