Defensive Counter Air & Kamikaze Drones in the DCS F/A-18C Hornet!

[@Spudspike]

Hey guys! Here is the next episode in the Operation Burning Sands Series! Man it sure is easy to accidentally say Fox 1 or 2 instead of Fox 3 in the heat of the moment! Haha!

27:15 I don't know how we missed this during the flight, but button 4 on COMM 2 was not set to the frequency for Ramat CTAF. Now that I'm looking back, I do remember briefly wondering about how it's odd that you did not call anything on CTAF. Ramat CTAF was on 296.500, button 4 COMM 2 was 225.00. I can't believe we didn't realize lol. But this was a great flight as always and a fantastic way to get current in the Hornet again. Thanks Spud!

[@Fox3-Luck]

This was great fun Spud! Thanks

[@Spudspike]

Absolutely man! So Sorry for the CFIT crash after you downed that MiG-19 Drone!

[@Fox3-Luck]

@@Spudspike it was all good. My rusty self was the problem =)

[@Andrew-ph9np]

This mission was a good time, I don’t fly RIO as much as I used to so this was some good practice!

[@giwrgoskarachalios5419]

It was a blast! Glad to have you in my backseat.

The Halo music snaps me to attention every time without fail.

[@Spudspike]

I recently realized that the Halo music is all Royalty Free!

[@hanswolfgangmercer]

This is a really cool concept for a mission!

[@Spudspike]

@@hanswolfgangmercer it was a blast man!

[@oc1075]

[@Advanced.Motorsport]

[@Spudspike]

Thanks man!

[@GenericDCS]

I honestly wish i did better as Snoopy that day. Lot of people got in the way of each other when i check the tacview...

[@Spudspike]

Haha thats ok man you were probably surprised by the sheer number of hostile aircraft haha

[@tanakalight]

Iv not played dcs in a few years due to time issues but even i know the fact you stepped up at all and filled the role is more than enough

[@MILSPECMOM]

Holy poop were you being locked at the 34 mike mark? I'm assuming yes as your SAM's were engaging something. lol o7

[@GolddenWaffles]

Nice!

[@Spudspike]

Thanks man!

[@shilohwiseman]

What monitor do you use?the model? thanks,

[@Spudspike]

Hey friend I use an LG 4K ultrawide with G-Sync!

[@urichen8257]

I appreciate the videos, but it is slightly painful having to listen to the radio so closely in my left ear. I would appreciate if you could do something to make it better! ❤

[@mattboggs6304]

"Tree tree four." What are you guys, lumberjacks or something? Nobody in real life says "tree" instead of "three", except for some people with thick Irish accents.

[@Spudspike]

I hear it all the time at work on the radio, technically you're supposed to say Tree and Fife on the radio but very few people do it haha

[@SGTJackMorgan]

Hmm someone has never talked on tac radio before or they would know how common it is for tree to be used for three.

[@SGTJackMorgan]

@@Spudspike And four is supposed to be less clipped. Sounding more like foouur with a bit more emphasis on the "ou" part of the word.

[@devilsoffspring5519]

@@Spudspike Any idea why that is? I'm not sure how "three" and "five" could sound like anything else and be mistaken for a different number.
