Speaking as active duty Air Force myself, this MOC build is simply fantastic! I know this is based on an air field in Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War but it also reminds me of Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar when I was deployed there a decade ago.
Current active duty SF, cool to see someone including us in something lol
Epic
I'd do almost ANYTHING to get those 5 warthogs
me too
You can buy em on Amazon, it’s Not real Lego
@funny operator man even that
I have the A10 instructions
Same
this is my new favorite lego military moc
Thanks
Paul Thomas hi! Great job on that airfield! But, I would add about 4 tanks not 1, but great job!
A-10's do it like a Boss.
So that's why Brickmania ran out of the A-10 Warthogs....
Flakne Family lol
I don't know I thought you know
Lol
this is an amazing build this guy really knows how to build with lego
I'm always amazed by the amount of plates they have to buy to cover the whole ground
This is awesome! Lego Gulf War is so underdone.
Same with korean war! Im 19 and im kinda pissed no one talks about Korean war or gulf war!
BA - GI brick unboxing & reviews yeah same with ww1 (before battlefield one came out, of course)
Did that helicopter have a mustache?!
Zooly yes it is, im assuming that that mustache was some sort of nose art on the helicopter
Zooly yes its a joke that the jsoc pj's have since they are nicknamed pedros
Yes
Yes.... yes it does....
Brickmania made a lot of money off this guy...
He actually only bought one A-10 - the rest he sourced parts for from BrickLink.
Connor Querin And then used the instructions from the first, that's what I was thinking.
I had most of the parts to build the layout.
Hey do you have a XML file for the parts?
Am i the only person that thinks the fuel probe on the helicopter should be alot longer? normally they are just a little shorter or clear the rotor's
I'm so glad he added Security Forces!
6:21 he accidentally put the US Air force symbol on upside down
Nice build! Love the HH-60 Pave Hawk I'm a future PJ myself but the price of that set was way to much for me to buy. My dad was in the USAF and felt with the weapons for aircraft.
Glad to see an Air Force build. Don't get me wrong I like the army, marines and navy but you don't see a lot of Air Force. Personally I want to join the Air Force so it's nice to see this stuff.
Gavin Frederick air force was mainly on air craft carriers and air strips like these. I agree. I'm going into the marines so nice to see you going into the air force.
If you join the air force and become an officer you can fly planes and choppers but if you survive a hit your aircraft will lose altitude and hit the ground with force. To make it simple: you'll die.
Incredible build!
next level creativity and you have to be rich to pull something like this off
Wow. This is great!
Lego is creative, fun, and inspiring, yet so many builds presented on this channel are centered around war! Am I the only one who sees the irony?
Well there are a lot of war builder groups
Most of the videos released in the last two weeks were filmed at the same event which was called World War Brick.
Brian Piper they are interesting to build
Liberal
No i dont see the irony...
The flag on the hanger is not displayed correctly. Stars are always to the left.
nope the stars in the Military are Right on the flag it means they push Forward not going back
Awesome work. Really amazing. One small detail though... during Operation Desert Shield/Storm US Air Force OA-10’s and A-10’a were painted green still. They didnt switch to the grey scheme till the mid-90’s.
Buck Wyndham discusses it in his great book Hogs In The Sand. He mentions they experimented with a Grey scheme while still in England before they deported, and it was fantastic, but they painted that aircraft Green again before heading to the Gulf, per USAF orders (which they didn’t think made sense at the time, but orders are orders)
Not knocking the build, its great detail, and expressive of a lot of hours of hard work. Just, as a history teacher, and a lover of military history specifically, the aircraft should be green. (And the Pedro Pave Hawk from ODS should be Tan & Earth, with no ‘stache. Those Grey Pedros are more 2000’s Gulf War-Afghanistan)
That said. This is a GREAT 2005-2010 era diorama for those aircraft...
13 year old me working on my moc: see mom this is who I’m building against to win the contest. My mom: get a job. Me: :(
when he calls a black hawk a pave low....
EDIT: Sorry just realized he said pave HAWK my bad.
BoMz_CrYoZ a pave hawk is a black hawk variant.
yes ik that
You do get the term is ramp taxiway or runway not a tarmac good build tho
I hope brickmania adds the abrams tank and warthog to bricks in the sand part 2
They should make 6 color desert camouflage (chocolate chip) boonie hats. Those would be more correct than the 3 color desert (coffee stain) boonie hats shown at 1:55. 3 color desert camouflage was issued in very small experimental quantities in BDU shirts and trousers only.
I’m in the AF. That my friend is bad ass. I would def like to know how you built that HH-60G the PJs use.
I got a across the battlefield a10 and very honestly it is bigger and more detailed for way less $
That is killer brother!!
Fun fact the gun on the plane was built first then the plane around the gun
My father flew Sh-60 Seahawk Helicopters during both Gulf Wars.
5 A10 Warthogs and 1 HH-60... that’s pretty neat.
My father worked there I asked him What did he worked before he told me As an engineer in the air field And I live in Saudi Arabia
nice intro the titel of the movie is fury and they make it a lego version
Hey my dad was in that war in the 1990’s
Long live the Warthog
I need them
It's not tile. It's snot!
As much as there things are cool brickmania are expensive af
yep...
I build my own stuff. I just can’t afford $155 humvees when I can easily just make my own
He probably chose the A-10 for the purpose of its popularity
Where do you get the WW minifigures and stuff? They are not official, right?
MerisBricks No the Guns and custom bricks are not official lego parts, you can buy them from brickmania online
Oh, didn't know that page. How is the quality? Thanks you!
they r great!! they also have kits!
Thanks! didn't know about that. :D
np
that is cool you should make a hole airport
i wonder where he got the minifigs
Hey at 3:02 there is Bin Laden Hiding !!!
That's a lot for A-10's!
awesome!!
Your guns go pew pew my gun goes BRRRRRRRRRRR
MJHLFC0314 TH-cam sovietwomble ayyyy
I saw that base at brickfair
Wasn't there. Only BricksLA and WWB
I want to buy!
In war sets I prefer COBI
My dad served in desert Storm
Where does he get his minifigs
I am guessing that this guy was in the Air Force
Hats aren't allowed on the flight line lol
Jack Nelson that's for the info. I will keep that in mind and make the correction
