oh my god dude the lag was so annoying and you knew that shit was gonna hit the ground cause you had about a split second of gap between that snap back maneuver either failing or succeeding based on how fast the chopper was able to reduce speed. The chinook was a flexible BBW I had so much fun in invade and annex games in arma 3 exploiting different mods that had OP weapons lol. I used to strap an IED on myself and paradrop into combat. Well, I never activated the parachute so right before I hit the ground id set off the IED and I literally became a human missile. A lot more fun was had by way of placing C4 on the drones and using them as kamakazis. apologize but I was the reason TAW and the other servers nerfed arty support from arma 2 onwards, cause them damn A10 pilots would log in later in the day and were pissing me off everytime they'd clear the enemies before anyone could drop in. Nobody had actually realized the overpowered nature of having artillery at the spawn before, and I would just shell the shit out of the AO with it.

@KamiReccaАй бұрын
@@Vikingr91 hmm.. i mean the chopper dips quite alot, but he dips out of it and seems to increase the rotorspeed quite a bit at the end. I mean im not an actual pilot, so heck waht do i know, right? But first he gives himself upwards momentum, does the spin 180 that drops the heli like a stone, but quite a few meters (Im judigng 5-10) the heli have already turned back in upright and rotors counters the downward momentum from the unpowered fall? Again, not a real pilot (And my text might very well make that rather obvious even if i didnt make that clear), but i am curious to learn more here why the above is not the case. I'll start by reading about Vortex ring states i guess. Edit: After like 2 lines of reading, yea, i get why now. Never mind. The rotors wouldnt counteract the fall because it would not provide lift, only circulate the vortex ring, right?

One of my uncles was in the Vietnam never would talk about what he seen or did over there and would tell you to drop the topic. My grandpa on the other hand was in the Army during World War II and Korean War. He did talk about stuff and even let me hold his M1 Garand rifle when I was an adult of course and before his passing. I remember plenty of times going to grandpa's house and while growing up there was a big glass case. Inside was all sorts of World War II stuff including a M2 Mortar with two rounds right by it I'm sure it was deactivated. I remember long before that family member passed away and my dad got some of his things. Once my dad got home with the stuff and went through it all ended up finding a live Anti-Tank round. My dad ended up handing that Anti-Tank round over to the local police. I was not there when he handed it over I wonder what was going through the policer's mind when my dad handed it over.
