Ordinary Demi-Bradleys - ShackTac Arma 3

[@muzleflash1341]

About the twentieth time I have watched this now, it never gets old, great example of vehicle team work, one of my favorites.

[@BinkyTheElf1]

That middle section of the Bradley mis-negotiating the boulders gives a whole new meaning to the idea that "Crane's driving rocks!"

[@jaredrowe355]

Poor Crane, making the "They say 1 in 3 people don't even make it to the ground" joke multiple times and getting left hanging

That's o7 o7 o7 ___

[@walther007]

The gunner is wicked good. Great shots.

[@Aardvark892]

Damn good gunner work, especially hitting the tank with a missile

[@demency2741]

"Do you want me to lock the - FUCK ME!" I love Crane's random explosions of vulgarity.

[@headrockbeats]

29:20 - It's the BAE candidate for the AMPV program. Nice work, Killpact!

[@headrockbeats]

And +Dslyecxi - 29:52 Yes, that is called the Nagmachon (and many other names for later versions) - except they're based on MBT hulls.

[@aussiemilitant4486]

Nagmachon, Nakpadon and Achzarit are pretty outdated being based on Centurion and T54/55's, surely your talking about the Namer H-APC? Based on Merkava Mk IV hulls i believe.

[@headrockbeats]

+Aussie Militant - Like I said, there are many names for later versions. But the abbreviation "Nagmachon" literally translates to "Shielded Underbelly APC", which describes why tank hulls were used as APCs in the first place, and "Nagmach" is the abbreviation for "Heavy APC". Also, though they are definitely getting old, there are still far more Centurion-based vehicles in service in the IDF than there are Merkava-based APCs.

[@FlinnGaidin]

Aussie Militant, indeed, the Namer is based on the Merkava IV chassis.

[@aussiemilitant4486]

Yes its been a while since i read up on the Namer and Merkava's. If i remember the prototype was on a Mk I hull and there were a few earlier Namers built on Mk II hulls that were either to be scrapped or upgraded to a variant of Mk III. Then they decided instead of using Mk II hulls they would use new Mk IV hulls and build from new. Not to sure of the differences between the Mk II and Mk IV hulls, i wonder if it was the cheaper option or if it was the smarter option, like i said its been a while since i participated in conversation about Israeli AFV's.

[@jarrad9615]

Now I'm curious- you were half-way through saying what you would like to see most in A3 (after performance improvements) but were rudely interrupted by fire. What is it?

[@headrockbeats]

Phew! For a while I thought I was going to have to suffice with a 3 minute video tonight. Lucky I checked my subscription box, I was just about to watch a stupid movie instead. **Rubs hands with excitement**

[@Xoniksken]

*Looks at subscriptions.... ahh another Dsylecxi video... hour and a half long... "Hold my beer I got this"

[@maxsteiner1964]

I mean it, that KillPact dude is rock solid with the guns.

[@maxsteiner1964]

a pretty good gunner you have there Dslyecxi.

[@GenJeFT]

Why is there one single frame of what looks like intro at 1:09:46 or so?

[@GenJeFT]

How do I notice one frame of intro an just over an hour in?

[@FlinnGaidin]

GenJeFT, that was odd, wasn't it?

[@artinyyk]

Hey it's working, I love me some dslyecxi.

[@fanjerry8100]

Hey Dslyecxi what happened to episode 4 and 5 of your real helicopter flight videos?

[@YinYorusenpai]

when she sang "You're Welcome" I sang along lol

[@BinkyTheElf1]

Fresh goodness! Much wow, so rejoice. Well done, all. o7

[@MrAmmo2021]

at 20:25 or so could you link the video you guys were talking about

[@sebastianshogunwolf727]

either the traverse in the bradley is pretty unresponsive or the gunner is playing with a trackball

[@quadg5296]

its the traverse. you are better off moving your mouse hand slowly, at the speed of the traverse. because if you move your hand fast it does not speed the turret up and you run out of mouse mat and have to move your hand. hence the jerk jerk jerk motion. move your hand slowly and you can rotate 180 without moving your hand back to centre. but moving your hand slowly when craziness like this is going on is almost impossible to do... more haste, less speed. :)

[@GhostWulve]

Near the end of this 3 hour mission and you can see the fatigue-induced delirium setting in. I can only imagine what the last bit of the mission was like. A lot of yawning and complaining from all parties. :D

[@ianmcatee3311]

God I love Bradleys such a versatile killing machine.

[@dusk6816]

Arma 3 Physics is the best.

[@benswanson914]

KillPact on the spot with TOWs! nice shooting all

[@FlinnGaidin]

Dslyecxi, at 29:52 you mention "the Israeli APC"....which one do you mean? We have quite a few different types.

[@rinalds637]

I think he means Namer.

[@FlinnGaidin]

Yeah, probably. It's the most modern one.

[@AAA9734]

Sure, but the Namer is not a Bradley/lightly armoured IFV without a turret, it's an MBT without turret, turned into a heavy APC. The point of it is giving the mounted infantry the same armour protection that a main battle tank has. By the way, the IFV-6c Panther in Arma 3 is actually based on the real World Namer heavy APC.

[@FlinnGaidin]

AAA9734, the Namer is based on the Merkava MBT, but isn't simply a Merkava that they removed the turret from, it's a purpose built APC, with heavier armour than the MBT hull.

[@AAA9734]

Ok, I didn't know that, I thought they were older, rebuilt Merkavas with the turret removed. Still, my point was that they're not a lightly armoured IFV with the turret removed, like they were talking about in the video, it's basically a turretless MBT.

[@notapplicable4637]

Regarding the first 15 minutes, when I watched this from Chris' perspective (Alpha), this whole sequence felt so much longer. In particular the time it took for Dslyecxi and team to reach Alpha seemed agonisingly slow from the infantry perspective but it was no time at all seen from the other side.

[@thetrainshop]

Killpact is right actually. BAE is delivering a M113 replacement based on the M2 platform by the end of this(?) year.

[@astratan2238]

BNSF5608 is that the scout sv you're talking about?

[@rampie00]

oh how i love how evil you are Dslyecxi 😂😈

[@QuewithQ]

Damn KillPact is a goodshot!

[@pwolfamv]

A little late to this one but nice gunning from KillPact.

[@Nick-si6ni]

Are you going to be the gunner of a vehicle or helicopter for a mission?

[@FlinnGaidin]

Nick 47, that would be a criminal waste of a Dslyecxi...

[@dslyecxi]

I don't take gunner roles very often. I'm not against trying it in the event that she wants to fly or TC a vehicle, though.

[@jaredrowe355]

Also, why is there one random naked dude running with the squad you're watching at 42:47 ? lol

[@FlinnGaidin]

Jared Rowe, at a guess, a glitch.

[@headrockbeats]

322nd Pajama Regiment. "Quid ad induendum uniformis, cum possis a pajama gerunt"

[@rjcoady21]

Jared Rowe you can see him in the compound at 38:40 or so, too. must be celtic they liked being naked.

[@L4zyN1nj4]

first to die while unbuttoned in a bradly

[@JuanOchoa]

Crane did nothing wrong.

[@thomasrobertson2241]

Can you destroy a bmd with HE rounds?

[@pkisbest]

From my understanding BMD's are fairly lightly armoured. HE should be able to take them out after a few rounds.

[@crystalmchenry4715]

technically there call MPAT ROUNDS USE FOR LIGHTLY ARMORED APC. I

[@robomaster20]

Have you ever watched Battlefield Friends?

[@dslyecxi]

I have not.

[@awingard2014]

that poor logi

[@Arcamean]

Now I wanna see Crane driving russian heavy armor. :D edit: I'll be honest considering how it was wrapping down to the final minutes I began to wonder if everyone died to an ambush... I almost feel let down lol.

[@BinkyTheElf1]

"[The RPG] came right for me!" Says Crane. Was it some kind of Russia-stronk CSM ( Chick Seeking Missile)? 😉
