IL-2 Great Battles | Focke-Wulf 190A | Bridge Strike!

[@leprekhantar347]

Who are you and what did you do to Taff? Hit with a bomb, then landed without bouncing? Can't be!

[@foreverpinkf.7603]

Yeah! He was as surprised as you but it was a perfect landing in a plane he isn´t familiar with.

[@sksaddrakk5183]

and all without getting wounded... *cough* Alfie West *cough*

[@alfmalf3310]

I thought you flew that Focke exceptionally well,brilliant bomb run,they way you were forced to shoot from range was great to watch and topped off with a good landing

[@TaffinExile]

Thx! A lively aircraft to fly although will need to adjust to its characteristics a little more

[@bwwwbb7904]

My father and uncle were crossing the Remagen bridge when three Stukas in the early morning light attacked the bridge, in a section of 5-6 jeeps.(311th Inf Reg/78th Inf Div), 10 Mar 44......All the Stukas were shot down, and the AA even shot at the bailed out pilots. //In the 1980s, in NYC the 78th ID had a reunion, and one of the Stuka Pilots showed up and told his side of the story!

[@Flaygar66]

Love the 190. Not the "i'll hold your hand" easyest plane to fly. But when you get the sights on another plane, the fire power is amazing.

[@MouldedSalad]

Someone really ought to cut the grass on that airfield! 👀

[@TaffinExile]

Haha yes I guess the props will do the heavy cut 😝

[@mikhailiagacesa3406]

Late in the war. Anything that looked like an airfield caught the attention of the RAF or USAAF.

[@hummerltheOh]

Taff I think you need to move your standard view further back to have better visibility --> move backwards in your chair so that the pilot head moves back and then press F10 to save it as the new quick-view-default!

[@odonovan]

2:05 - DAMN that German pilot flying black 10! He must be one of the top experten in the entire Luftwaffe. It seems as if he's everywhere at once! 3:55 - And so goes the German war effort! "No! Our planes were brought down by enemy fire. I swear!" 5:50 - "So they may knock out the bridge before we get there." Yeah, if their seeing eye dogs weren't flying for them, perhaps. 6:34 - "Formation flying takes so much concentration." (see 3:55, above) 🤪 🤪 🤪 🤪 🤪 8:54 - If you wanted to get THAT close, you should've just LANDED on the damned thing. 😁

[@bentilbury2002]

Some good flying there Taff! Nice one.

[@ColonelVermel]

Nice shooting ace! And the landing was butter. Indeed it was so much butter it will last for the next 3 mission.

[@peterdunn8583]

Well done , from start to finish. It was a lot of fun to watch.

[@Colaris99]

Nice hit! You just cleared those trees as well! A three point landing to finish off. Quite a flyer now sir!

[@copee2960]

Fantastic landing Taff....and good shooting.

[@blintzkreig1638]

Shouldn't they have used a dentist to remove Ludendorff's bridge?

[@15Indianajon]

Been waiting for this one! One of my favourite DCS warbirds and keen to see how it plays in IL2. Thanks Taff

[@MrBubba19692]

Wow, great mission. Worst thing is if you tell someone you did that they'll go "Kyeah sure." lol You must have watched that bomb run in 3rd person a hundred times. I know I would have. Smooth. 👌😁

[@davidhunter1538]

Congratulations on your bridge attack.

[@eggy68]

Using a FW-190 to drop 500 pound bombs is like using a Ferrari to plow snow.

[@RemusKingOfRome]

Good flight. That Stuka AI is worth a good laugh :D Reminds me Cliffs of Dover AI lol

[@jamesrussell7760]

How to avoid AA fire from the ridge? You fly low enough to give the gunners a haircut! Brilliant bomb run, Taff.

[@hellionfi]

That was a three-point landing to be proud of. Good job.

[@colindouglas7769]

Taff, if you're going to choose the Fw-190 for your new career, a better variant would be the D-9 Dora, which is significantly quicker than the 190A, handles and climbs better than the 190A and was competitive against the P-51 Mustang and Spitfire XIV. Have you seen any of Sheriff's Sim Shack's instructional videos on the various warbirds. He has certainly done some on the 190s which you may well find very helpful to you.

[@bigrivercod]

Loved the super-sweet 3 point landing, it was better than good. Can't believe what you did to the beautiful Tempest though :(

[@SOLDADITO76]

One of my favorite German aircraft for the era.

[@hawks1ish]

Best jack of all trades of the war eh

[@mikhailiagacesa3406]

Mine as well; too bad that most were being flown by 17 and 16 yr. olds at this point.

[@bkrules1234]

Really loved the intro sequence for this one, and the cuts to the Stuka and Lightning squadrons! Not sure how much work it took putting all of that in, but I think it paid off. Almost seemed like watching a documentary/movie. Keep up the good work, cheers! 👍🛩

[@foreverpinkf.7603]

Well, the Stuka flight maneuver was quite a masterpiece; trying to hug the plane with a 500 kg bomb under the belly. Good hit on the bridge. You are flying an A-8, not a D-9, so don´t try to chase Tempest´s and Lightning´s. Nevertheless, good shots on the Tempest. But, all in all, you did survive and that´s what counts.

[@discoverynorthcarolina9824]

Was gonna ask about that Flak

[@carlosteran5617]

Well done....Fw190's for Ever!!!!

[@willgnue2240]

😉may be to hard an act to follow LoL 120% on Bomb run ,attacked a number of times and not single hit taken, shots fighter down even tho the under dog and 10 out 10 landing. 😉👍

[@agungprasetyo2665]

Intresting for the next career series

[@waltergreif4836]

Good Effort!!

[@NephilBlade]

A successful mission, well done!

[@sfckrbec]

Buttered that landing

[@andrewbranch4075]

That was a lovely bomb 👍

[@richardbarker2928]

Excellent video as usual,FW190 good choice. Trying not to be picky but can you do the video without the music,it would be nice just hear the aircraft etc at the start or you introducing the background to each plane,but apart from that top notch

[@stephenbrown321]

Is flying into cloud a viable escape tactic?

[@fightercombatkid]

dont know about ai but in multiplayer its a good tactic

[@robertdubois3448]

Will Taff actually hit something with a bomb? Stay tuned aerofans! (The smart money is on "No.")

[@robertdubois3448]

*Shocked face* Taff! You hit a bridge support! So proud. Also, you sound a bit under the weather. Remember to drink water.

[@TaffinExile]

Haha you weren’t expecting that! Nor was I to be honest! I’m good thx just a little tired 👍

[@robertdubois3448]

@@TaffinExile True enough. I think I found my vote for when the time comes though.

[@karlbrock2178]

Great vid taff

[@conmcgrath7502]

Kommandant; ze grass-cutter ist kaput. Pilots, you know what to do... Did anybody mention the Mosquito yet?

[@neilharbott8394]

I did last week - and with that demo of low level bombing, he might be getting to a point where he's somewhat qualified!

[@Droodog127]

Should always raise flaps as soon as you touch down , slows you , never brake !!

[@odonovan]

@Droodog127 - Not so. Raising the flaps actually lessens the drag and keeps you from slowing down. However, it also lessens the lift and keeps you from lifting your wheels back off, then bouncing down and nosing over. The brakes are fine as long as you wait a bit before you start using them and use only light taps.

[@Droodog127]

​@@odonovan I meant at least in a Cherokee warrior I was told to raise flaps and coast never braking as not to bounce or tip

[@noneofyourbusiness2107]

love how this video is, but i think id prefer a career

[@littledidio99]

Best German fighter by far FW190!!!.

[@YOUPIMatin123]

Themusic is great

[@barnstorm91]

use your combat flaps for turns man!

[@franktozier3184]

You rewrote history. You knocked out the bridge

[@jwrockets]

Starting 8 March 45? Going to be a short career.

So no talk about what today is? No? Alright, alright, I'm fine with that.
