India's Greatest Jet Ace | 1971: Indian Naval Front

[@Strigon_Kid]

This isn't Ace Combat at home, that's Project Wingman. This is Bollywood's Aerial Warfare.

[@penguinsentinel8508]

The 1971 war gets quite interesting in terms of equipment alone. Both Pakistan (and by extension, the Bangladeshi rebels) and India had equipment from the Brits, Americans and the Soviets as well as whatever else they could buy. It wouldn't be surprising to see a T-55 escorted by troops with SLRs.

[@asakurayoh3909]

None of the Indian equipment was from America. America was supporting Pakistan in 1971. Even the Pakistan submarine PNS Gazi that Indian navy sunk was American.

According to wiki, yes. By the Mid to late 60s they had Dassault Mysteres, de Havilland Vampires, even their MiG 21s. HAL was also producing domestic fighter/bombers.

[@thefuturist1867]

We had the vampires almost immediately after independence iirc, and we had one or two carriers for most of our history

[@certifiedhoodclassic7833]

Yeah just read about it, India eliminated the entire Pakistani Navy and had tanks in sight of the Pakistani capital when Pakistan surrendered

[@tmzilla]

I wonder why we haven't had a Ace Combat game set in Stragereal's Prop or Biplane era... like Japanese Crimson Skies...

[@DefrostedChicken]

10:31 The explosion was some crewman looking at the bomb, thinking "tf?", and kicking it

[@FAL_Enthusiast]

The Project Wingman soundtrack goes absolutely perfectly with this game. Very nice touch.

[@SilimSavertin]

The project wingman OST could go with me taking a leasurly walk and it'd fit, its just that good. it makes everything epic.

[@andrewrogers3067]

1971 Indo Pakistan war was an absolute stomp in favor of India, so if this game is India crushing Pakistan I can’t even call it biased, just historically true.

[@deadpan2866]

somewhere in india is an indian who is claiming that india can conquer the whole world with their source being this game

[@sawyerawr5783]

Interesting that they'd make a full mission out of the sinking of PNS Ghazi: the whole thing was "Found submarine outside harbor as we left: depth charged, believed sunk." there's still some debate as to what happened (the Ghazi was supposed to be waiting outside to ambush the carrier Vikrant as it left for operations against Bangladesh, but there's some debate as to whether or not India knew it was there and laid a trap for it. the wreck does look like it got rammed by something...)

[@JakeHowie]

I absolutely LOVED Battlestations Pacific ever since I first played it. To learn this runs on the same engine brings me joy. Also sad it’s not available of Steam anymore but luckily I grabbed it before it was taken off the store

As soon as Rimmy took off, I was like. "This is s like Battle Stations: Pacific" only to learn like a minute later it was based off the image. I was booya! When I heard that, such a good game.

Every video game is better with Ace Combat and Project Wingman music. By the way a game to try out Rimmy is Nuclear Option. Just had an update and has a multiplayer mode where multiplayer teams fight out over a massive battlefield.

[@brunokopte1347]

Somehow, the part where you try to bomb the airport reminded me of using the Y-wing in Rogue Squadron. Which was a good game... In 1998. That epoch where one found out about new games by buying the Nintendo magazine. And I think the glowing bombs were more accurate, though it has been a while.

[@jamesscalzo3033]

Loved the video @Rimmy Downunder! Can't wait for the next video man! The Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 is an Interesting one for the Books, almost like the 1969 Football War between El Salvador and Honduras..... Except nobody was Fighting because the final straw was someone losing to a Game of American Soccer. The Pakistani Air Force had Martin B-57 Canberra Bombers from the United States of America and Made use of them in both the 1965 and 1971 Indo-Pakistani Wars. 3 Canberra's were lost in the 1965 War and 5 in the 1971 War. India, on the other hand, was using Ships and Vehicles like World War Two Period Armoured Cars it had Purchased by Britain. Ships like the Type 14 Frigates (Aka the Blackwood-class Frigates) and Armoured Cars like the Diamler's were used by India against Pakistani Forces. Let me know what you think about this and I'll catch you in your next video man!

[@MarkSynthesis]

"India, on the other hand, was using Ships and Vehicles like World War Two Period Armoured Cars it had Purchased by Britain." Well, that and Soviet MiGs and T-55 tanks, purchased from the USSR, which would be the most modern equipment available to the Indian military.

Considering the game is about a 1 week war in which the indian navy engaged the much much smaller Pakistani navy in a series of largely on sided engagements with the only upset being a single destroyer sunk by a Pakstani submarine I think it is safe to say the mere existance of this game is propaganda ^^
