😅 On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the life There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz And the sky with no clouds The heat was hot and the ground was dry But the air was full of sound I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la la la la la... After two days in the desert sun My skin began to turn red And after three days in the desert fun I was looking at a river bed And the story it told of a river that flowed Made me sad to think it was dead You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la la la la la... After nine days I let the horse run free 'Cause the desert had turned to sea There were plants and birds and rocks and things There was sand and hills and rings The ocean is a desert with its life underground And a perfect disguise above Under the cities lies a heart made of ground But the humans will give no love You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name It felt good to be out of the rain In the desert you can't remember your name 'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain La la la la la la...

You were always on point with the cinematography, but with the soundtrack you've added, you've brought it up a notch.

[@bigrich6750]

The Mig-29 is a gorgeous jet. All jets are marvels of engineering, but Gen-5 jets give up some aesthetics for stealth, imo, but some of the most beautiful jets of all time are the Gen-3 and 4 jets.

[@wilsonrawlin8547]

Agree.

[@lowtdave]

I tend to agree with this. Flankers are beautiful. Russian jets, in general, are hot. Not saying they're better jets, just they are superior in aesthetics.

[@andrewstevenson118]

@@lowtdave Yeah, Flankers are great. The only time I have ever been near a modern jet was when I was staying near Miramar NAS and say an F-14 take off and saw the wings sweep back. Oh, another time at Honolulu when two F-16s landed so our 747 couldn't take off. Dunno why military jets would be using a civilian airport. Pretty cool though.

[@ericstockdell3954]

When you see just how easily an engagement can go either way: a slip up here, an extra few seconds there, you have to respect the guys who are doing this for real.

[@keepwalking6041]

which is why in real life its all about preserving the plane, top gunning it is for the movies, in real life, you would lob missiles and return to base.. no dogfights, no closing in etc.. and nation with more money to dump missiles, fuel, maintenance into plane wins..

[@oddursigurdsson9637]

Hey Longshot, your videos are great in DCS with the great cinematic clips and the gameplay

Thanks so much

[@martins3993]

I appreciate you not just putting out videos of you owning. It's interesting to see you fight overwhelmed.

[@antoniohagopian213]

4:04 Mig29S already had datalink. ED simply didn't bother to implement it as it's different from the su27/j11/su33 one if I recall correctly.

[@thelespauldude3283]

The mig29 is my favorite jet to fly in DCS, its just insanely powerful. Its basically a rocket with missiles

[@OgamiItto70]

If you had made it back, your crew chief would have wondered how you got blades of grass in your leading edge slats and your callsign would have changed to "Weedeater."

[@arminhos743]

11:13 was amazing in terms of cinematic

[@timgilbert460]

That's my favorite kind of flying!! Great video : )

[@blofal]

That’s the problem with the Mig29 especially in multiplayer. I love it so much but the radar and lack of datalink means your situational awareness is just so much inferior to many other aircraft. If it had at least datalink then it would be lethal.

[@glovemaker2]

[@klaw2749]

I appreciate you posting a video even when things don't go your way in the missions/battles. DCS is HARD. I was flying the Jeff the other day and got shot down by a Tomcat because I was tunnel visioned on a less threatening MiG-23. Why? Because my brain: "Har har, I make MiG-23 go boom with SD-10."

[@mikedebear]

Your episodes are half tactics and half cinematography. Great job man.

[@LongShotChannel]

Thanks

[@antoniohagopian213]

The only problem with the mig29 is the lack of hardpoints, mig35 is the epitome of the mig29, it has 2 more hardpoints and even more thrust because why not.

[@keepwalking6041]

actually the mi29M2 version is very good, aesa radar, 4 hardpoints on each wing, using lightweight alloys and composite materials making it lighter and less radar reflective..but most of major issues get resolved by SMT, which is conversion of normal mig29 to SMT version with fuel hump, better radar-no aesa though.. it makes it very cheap to get mig29 with much bigger range and duration and better employment of weapons-laser, guided, etc..

[@Kudabear1]

very nice touch of realism how the intakes are blocked off

Nice video.. Im kind of new to DCS but I can fly my F-18 (very little practice though, mostly theory and solo training). Im considering starting to learn the Mig-29 because its is a beautiful jet.. F-18 has a lot of guide content, but I havent found much for the 29.. Any recommendations?

12:09 Well, I guess the video to watch immediately after this one is one called "How to Survive in the Desert | Desert Survival Training Film | USAAF | 1944" posted here on YT by The Best Film Archives.

[@aceblaneescabusa5371]

Amazing combat with some cinematographic theme on it. I was wondering if you can ever make a BVR and dogfight scenes in that same jet, but against a Felon. Differentiating both jets with similar rates of turns and tech, I once thought that the MiG-29 can possibly counter the Su-57 after merging. I suggest you to do this again, LS, but against a 5th Gen Fighter. Thanks!

Soviet aircraft are so underrated. Of course through the cold war especially in America everything is always "we have the best X in the world!" lots of hype and lots of tearing down our adversaries capabilities because that's just the nature of propaganda and warfare, and of course anything Soviet was always the enemy who dies in any media, movie or video game. It created a really false impression of their capabilities being vastly inferior when it really didn't reflect reality. The Soviets had some amazing military tech in their days.

What we really need is a MiG-29XL. Stretched and with the cranked wing, that might increase the range to adequate.

[@denanwt]

thats what the su 27 is

[@skaldlouiscyphre2453]

@@denanwt It's an overall larger aircraft, not just a stretched, low induced drag -29. For starters, it relies on a whole lot more engine than the -29.

[@antoniohagopian213]

The range is fine, the lack of hardpoints is the issue here. You can put 2 more tanks on the wings it will have more fuel and range then a f16. The newer versions of the mig29 have 2 morw pylons on the wings to solve this issue. So you're mig29xl is literally a mig35 or mig29m

To drop the drop tank you need to fly level and not pull. I believe you can be mach 1+ but you need to be level.

funny thing you hear the f16 pilots speaking hebrew on the radio at the end. but what they are saying is ground forces talk, talking about disabling terrorists

[@mitchjames9350]

The Russian planes are only held back by investments into them compared to the American planes. I honestly reckon if they had the same level of funding, built from the same materials and had the same avionics as the American planes they would be better planes. Mig35 and Su35 with avionics from France and Israel would make amazing planes.

How does it not jettisoning the fuel tank reflect on the MiG-29 as a aircraft? DCS doesn't model random malfunctions, that's probably just a keybind issue in the video game...
