[@FreeRangeLemon]

Joe mate has quickly become my favorite DCS content content creator. Reminds me of old Hellreign 82 vids.

[@theonefrancis696]

Same, wish Hell was still posting stuff :(

[@theonefrancis696]

Kinda insane that the A4 is a standalone mod and looks/performs this good. Talk about dedication!

[@saber8156]

Been flying the A-4 for a year and can absolutely say it's a joy to fly!

[@Montwix]

Just opened youtube and there it is ! Perfect timing !

Nice end words..."Don't kill me Shilka... Shilka-Ok... after few secounds KIA from tree (XD)

[@hyperoctane]

Great videos man. I just discovered the A-4E and I've been learning it the past few days, what a great little nugget.

[@linecraftman3907]

Good fight! Something about rocket runs is just so nice, be it an A-4, F-5 or the su-25 with smartypants ballistics computer

[@FenixD80]

In the end: "I hate you" Jajajajaja!!!

[@brish1665]

This was great! Well played and very entertaining.

[@joncoughlin_dev]

Damn. I need to take out my A4 now too!!!

[@saber8156]

I need to get a HOTAS and IR Head Tracking at some point, been flying the A-4 on Mouse and Keyboard, looking around using the Numpad for too long

Active jamming

@@Joemate23 Ooo didnt know u can do that..anyway keep it comin o7

[@ttpechon2535]

The computer for auto dropping the bombs on a point you select with the hud was mainly designed to work with the mk 82/83, so I've found that rockeye tends to fall short of where you aimed. Also nice to know that an A-4 can kill a mig 21, I can't even beat the ai!

[@Joemate23]

That is interesting, recently tried the S-13s on the frog with the new script and they are vile. Should imagine the Zunis got a similar treatment.

[@ttpechon2535]

@@Joemate23 Ah dang....

[@control_the_pet_population]

@@ttpechon2535 Unless they've made improvements, the AI in DCS is pretty OP in certain respects. I think it might depend on the module in question, but even after v2.8 a lot of people complain that AI pilots retain ridiculous amounts of energy. I guess this is less about the pure "AI" and more due to a simplified flight model that the AI uses... but the effect experienced by the human pilots is the same.

[@ttpechon2535]

​@@control_the_pet_population Oh maybe, didn't think of that, yah if the SFM is really simple, then they probs have decent advantage.

[@aperturefixtures7469]

cool!

[@gunzelloharris3348]

Nice Vidz Buddy!! U remind me of some 1 Do U know A HR187 by any chance???? lol ;)

[@falcon_viper2924]

Bro when i dogfight, i don't see enemy airplanes so, or you have a great view (i also grave a great view) or you are using some tricks. Tell me please.

I hate that shilka too >:[

[@StuartKoehl]

Don't chop throttle to decelerate, pop speed brakes, instead. It takes time for your engine to spool up to full throttle, but you accelerate instantaneously when you close the brakes.

[@StuartKoehl]

And why didn't you nail him with your AIM-9s?

[@Joemate23]

I cut throttle and used speed brakes, I couldn’t nail the second one with an aim 9 as he went behind a mountain and I only had aim9bs

[@StuartKoehl]

@@Joemate23 You must have had a ton of overtake. A high-G barrel roll also helps dump speed in a hurry without throttling down. As for the -9Bs, I take your point. You'd have as much luck shooting him with your Zunis (which, by the way, is how an Israeli Skyhawk nailed a MiG).

[@Magpie...]

I can’t be sure but I feel like you’re not messing with the trim at all in this fight It moves the whole horizontal stab like the 109 So use the trim instead of the flaps to tighten the turn (the flaps are drag monsters)

[@Joemate23]

Interesting...

[@Magpie...]

@@Joemate23 I couldn't be sure because maybe you were just energy fighting but it's a whole different plane when you realise how the trim works. Anything over 6 bleeds speed pretty hard though!

Damn Shilkas always ruin a good thing. happens in my hog all the time
