IL-2 1946: Tempest Fighter Bomber Strike

[@garybeak159]

If you read Clostermans book, plenty. German airfields were near suicide.

[@martinrigggs500]

Those Tempests were menacingly beautiful and beautifully Deadly!

[@tombartram7384]

Funny how the Tempest entered service just 4 years after the Fairey Battle was the raf's principal ground attack plane yet the Hawker Harrier had a service career of over forty years!

[@mEmEzMaN...]

They're 2 different things entirely Ones is an outdated prop from ww2 and the other is one of few jets of its kind still functioning

[@peterruiz6117]

A most favorite plane. Low pass over enemy runway, " What r u going to do about it !?"

[@stevenbreach2561]

the flyby at the end was a bit cheeky!

[@sizzler2462]

Late I the war attacking German airfields was a suicide mission read "the big show" by Pierre Clostermann attacked airfields in tempests I had tears in my eyes

[@IbnShahid]

That is an incredible book. Best military aviation book I’ve ever read.

[@FrankJmClarke]

I loved the Belfast accent on "unable" :) 10:43

[@Sigmundfries]

9:38 the best-case scenario for that last parachute was two shattered legs.

[@raymondyee2008]

Reading the book “Tempest V vs FW-190D-9” by Robert Forsyth comes in handy here indeed especially about the Tempest and tactics employed.

[@baneblade48]

Man I think the Tempest is going to be formidable in Bodenplatte

[@αλεξανδροςραπτης-λ5ζ]

my favourite ww2 airplane

[@JoseGarcia-sn7yw]

Nice flight Fishyyy. Thanks.

[@thomastatum9903]

Boss move 16:24-16:45

[@kpadmirer]

Luftwaffe seems to be falling down on the job to-day.

[@gazza2933]

No. They just got their arses kicked.

[@jonqueller4444]

13:07 What was the AI Tempest thinking?

[@น่านน่าน-ษ7น]

สู้กันแถวๆ,,ห้วยส้มป่อย...คั้งถี่,,ฝายแก้ว..แล้ว..

[@benzinonapoloni5516]

Hello Fishyyy, it is always a pleasure to watch your cool videos . I learned much about the limitations of the FMB. Have you ever tried to attack a "Bomber Pulk" (Combat box) with Nebelwerfer 21 = Döddel ? Or did i missed it ? The AI can't use them in air-to-air-combat. My settings: Range 800 or 900 m and delay 4.4 seconds. This offers the opportunity to attack beyond the range of the brownings.

[@Fishyyy]

I don't often use the rockets, because it's easy to hit a wrong bomber. When you shoot down element leaders, the rest of the formation slowly crashes into each other, so you have to basically hope not to do so. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXOUiWV8i5eprJo However I did use the rockets before, in two videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/opTWeY19mdqVmaM and kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqqqpHaCp9Wqp9k

[@benzinonapoloni5516]

I understand. Thx for the links.

[@johnnypatterson77]

Is there a way to get a 4k resolution or at the least a 1080 res with this game every time I try it just defaults back to 1200 x something?

[@Fishyyy]

yeah

[@EduardoMCfly]

great video ;)

[@Daapse]

Weren't typhoon mainly used for close air support? and tempest for interception and killing 262 and such? someone please do inform me if i'm wrong

[@borytastards2035]

springles read a book by Pierre Cloisterman. He flew tempests and typhoons in ww2. That should shed some light for you mon amie

[@ilikevideogames9146]

Borytastards He is right, the Tempest was approved for the RP-3 however they never carried rockets in wartime - in fact only a single squadron even carried bombs, and not until the very last month of the war. EDIT: Clostermann flew Spitfires before flying Tempests and never Typhoons.

[@Prestone44]

Clostermann flew Typhon at least once converting from Spitfire to Tempest.

[@ilikevideogames9146]

Yeah okay that's technically true. Clostermann never flew Typhoons *operationally*.

[@negus8810]

Nice video!

[@growlanser5600]

The only Bristish planes I like are the Hurricane and Beaufighter.

[@MarsFKA]

Mark 5 Tempests firing rockets? And taking on enemy fighters while still carrying the rockets?

[@DarkenedFantasies]

You are very observant.

[@tempestfury8324]

Would have been nice to have detachable rocket rails, I'm sure.

[@jollyjakelovell4787]

@@DarkenedFantasies "Tempest Mk. V was tested and cleared to carry 8 zero length 60 lb ground attack rockets. But it was never used operationally during the war. After the war, when used on Mk. IIs, the rockets were often mounted on zero length hooks. The rails spoiled the aerodynamics of the wing." www.hawkertempest.se/index.php/thetempest/armament-drop-tanks

[@user-po3ss3vk5b]

Bro how are you so good at dogfight can you teach because when i use a f4u corsair and my enemy is zero i would always get shot and get stall which is very annoying my flight is: boast/wep enabled flaps:combat but i will still get stall when i pull the plane up in a low ocean

[@DarkenedFantasies]

I'm not sure how I can help you with that. Sounds like you should be relegated to janitorial duties. You don't turnfight in Corsair, you fly in straight lines.

[@MarsFKA]

GamingKillerYT Keep your speed up and don't try to dogfight. Climb above your opponent, dive and attack then use your speed in the dive to climb above him again for another pass if the first one didn't work.

[@user-po3ss3vk5b]

I dont fly in syraight lines

[@MarsFKA]

You don't pay attention, either. I didn't tell you to fly in "syraight" lines. That's okay. Just keep doing what you aren't doing very well and you will continue to get shot down.

[@growlanser5600]

The Zero is a tough opponent. If you got any of the three main mods then you got the improved more realistic AI and that AI is as good and even better than some players. The Zero is very deadly in the hands of that AI. Try rookie difficulty?

[@barbarybar]

How big were these props? 6" ground clearance when level.

[@danbell124]

Hi all. I tried to install the Nakajima B5N2 'Kate' on my IL2 but it said that there was no free space on my disk. Do any of you have a way to get around this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@mexicanzoomer3754]

Well can you do a B 29 dropping in a Dropping in atomic bomb

[@Fishyyy]

Not really, the particle limit ruins that. There is a shot of it in this video, however: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZ6zlK1jdturrtk

What version of IL-2 are you playimg on this video??

Focke-Wulf 200 Condor

[@blackmesa1992]

Imakethepoopies Thanks!

[@callsignnictmere465]

Really stand out colors.... is that in game or post production lighting? what version of IL? Good video thumbs up!

[@Fishyyy]

Thank you. I always state the version and mods in the descriptions. Yeah, I do apply some effects with editing software.

[@callsignnictmere465]

@@Fishyyy Yes the effects were very good. You did it just right. I have seen some that are over done and don't look good. Thanks for the update. I was watching the video from my small screen cell phone and missed the description you provided sorry.

[@ivebeenbamboozled9210]

Good gameplay

[@tea7923]

Hey let me know when you need another pilot! it's the weekend!

[@sbd1102]

Hey Fishyyy, have you heard of the WIP Graphics Extender mod for Il-2? It really improves the sky gradient and landscape effects but it's still a bit buggy. The immersion is much better! Here's a demo video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWjEh2uOhNWNebM

[@Fishyyy]

Yeah, I've seen the post on SAS.

[@mexicanzoomer3754]

hello fishyyy Can you do a B-17 Raid

[@fariskhqn]

he already did a few

Great vid. But can you make a video just dogfighting?

[@chulian1819]

hispanos are too powerful, my dora doesn't like :(

[@richardputz3233]

Busy boy,planes,trains,where’s the automobiles?

[@BrianWMay]

Tempest was never fitted with RPs. So pretty much a load of bollocks.

[@Fishyyy]

Did you land or were you shot down ? !!!

[@tuskom4677]

WTF?

[@stephenarcher8929]

this is boring, unreal and infantile.

[@migmadmarine]

really? then move on. nothing to see here. maybe basket weaving is more up your alley.

[@growlanser5600]

What's unreal about it?
