DCS World - Su-33 - Russian Navy in the Syrian War, November 2016

[@johnsmith-ht3sy]

Here in England I recall when the Russian aircraft carrier sailed through the English Channel, I wished them well , but sadly the Media as usual screamed hysterically like a demented woman that Russian Navy was invading UK.

So I've been going through all the videos that I may have missed, and this one was on the list. Your channel's content has come a long way, and you should be very proud of the progress you've made in editing, and voice over recordings. Outstanding video as usual.

[@showtime112]

Thank you for the comment and for watching all those videos! The best way to learn something is to do it :)

[@RealDarko]

Nice mission. Remember that the Su-33 had installed the SVP-24 that allow failry good CIP using dumb bombs, unfortunately the system will never be in DCS.

[@showtime112]

Thanks! As for any recent Russian weapons in DCS, we all know how paranoid they are 😀

[@TheGranicd]

@@showtime112 That's not paranoia. US is gathering intelligence about any system. Every weapon can be used to max advantage only in one conflict. By next it will be countered.

I found your videos are magnificent with description of the operation. I wish if you make some videos with Sukhoi-22 I wishes for you all the best my dear friend

[@showtime112]

Thank you very much for your comment and support. Regarding Su-22, unfortunately it's not available in DCS world. Of the Sukhois, Su-25, Su-27 and Su-33 are flyable. Some other are there only as AI. But maybe someday someone develops a module for Su-22. I will sure get and fly it then.

@@showtime112 Fishbed ground-pounding might be a good substitute, it has a few funky weapons like the Kh-66 to play with. Plus Fishbeds are used extensively for "literally anything" worldwide, so it'd work quite well I think :)

[@showtime112]

Cool video - I hoped for some air-to-air footage, though. Not sure if it ever happened IRL, but still... ;-)

[@showtime112]

Thanks! As far as i know, Su-33 was never involved in air-to-air combat. Not that it was impossible. I mean, that's gotta be the most complicated war in history with so many sides involved and no clear coalitions, just partial interest. Each side is very selective about who they attack and who they don't (even though someone might attack your ally but you look other way 😁)

[@PappaBear_yt]

@@showtime112 Yeah, I thought so, too. 🤔

[@gamer_f1043]

I think Kuznetsov was sent to Syria as a punishment for the navy pilots. They must have done something wrong 😅

[@showtime112]

Yes, they could have chosen between Siberia or Syria 😁

[@1127fctwosw]

did a meet and greet with the Kuznetsov off the coast of Tunisia...in 1996. He was in bad shape...couldn't make potable water... we did some crew cross decking with Him...unfortunately I was unable to participate. (my rate was on the "list" of Sailors not allowed to go aboard.) so...I got to stand security in our Ship's Store...we brought the Russians down and let them clean the place out. 4 or 5 times i think. they bought everything. and they had their own American Dollars.

You think those level bombings conducted by Su-33s on video required computer input like a more modern MFD?

[@JoeCool_1962]

Unfortunately Russia gave up the Su-25 naval version Some says that the arrest device was damaged and after that Su-33 had to be located at Khmeimin

[@showtime112]

Naval Su-25 (and also the improved Su-25T) came at the wrong time I guess.

[@shlug]

What civil unrest? Oh, they said so on BBC, ok )

[@valley6636]

Wish there were more stories with the Su-33, seems like it's been replaced with the mig-29k though

[@showtime112]

Not much more is really known. They transferred to Khmeimim and kept flying sorties from there.

[@jfv2312]

Ever since the Kutnetzov has been under maintenance, the Su-33s have been appearing and disappearing from several airfields in Crimea and south-western Russia, but it really isn't possible to say if they've been used in the invasion of Ukraine. On the other hand, the MiG-29Ks have been always in Murmansk, with not much activity. I guess the Russians are keeping the newer aircraft away from the conflict just in case, if the day the carrier comes back to life ever comes, which seems unlikely at this point. Edit: apparently around half of the MiG-29Ks were transferred to Crimea at some point during last year and they are most definitely seeing active service in the war

Russians were never able to develop a proper catapult launch system so they use this as a compromise.

@@showtime112 It seems more efficient without the catapult.

What the Russian Navy should have did was fly their jets to secured Syrian airfields, load them up with both full bomb loads and fuel loads, then operate as a forward deployed squadron. They would only have to come back to ship for planned maintenance and could have improved their battle field effectiveness significantly

That's exactly what they did later.

Where's all the black exhaust that pours out of that broken 'carrier'?? You could locate that carrier from 300km away without radar. 🤣 Apparently the reason is besides its not nuclear, it doesn't burn the Fossil fuel efficiently due to poor maintenance and cost, so all the unburn fuel becomes heavy black smoke. Why is my country Australia being put under woke preoccupation with 'carbon neutral' crap that will ruin our economy with this thing sailing around? Reason.. Russia is not part of the pact to any environmental issues. I'm glad it's at port broken beyond repair. Lol

[@showtime112]

Very often, effects in DCS don't meet your expectations. Such as the smoke level generated by Kuznetsov. Or missile motor flash when you launch it in night time. Pilots often report being temporarily blinded if they forgot to close their eyes. In DCS, it's nothing at all.
