A note at around the 9 minute mark when talking about the Orca Fighter, I mention that it still kept the fan on it's tail like the Assault Craft. However, the fighter in the image that I used did not have said fan. But in the cutscenes, you can see it on the tail. Also even though the fighter didn't have a gatling gun on it, in some cutscenes it does actually seem to have a couple of machine guns/cannons in it's nose under the cockpit which I missed when writing the script.
Thanks for the videos! Judging by some of the comments I think people were sleeping on the orcas and didnt realize they are GDIs best fast attack vehicle for harvi harassment in almost all the C&C games
There also was another prototype aircraft GDI was developing, a fixed-winged advanced superiority fighter, called the Scimitar, the aircraft was featured on the game cover of Tiberian Dawn and was also featured also in-game cutscenes in both GDI and Nod campaign.

It's interesting on how the GDI Orca is equipped with a Gatling canon but never uses it, while the Nod Venom, which is derived from stolen Orca blueprints, uses the Gatling canon as it's main offensive capabilities.
Its because of CNC's rock paper sissors balance system, giving it a Gatling cannon would make it good against infantry in addition to its antivehicle rockets. Same reason the tanks and titans etc dont have machine guns when in reality they would like any modern tank/helicopter/plane.
@@Gallic_Gabagool Also because the aircraft in Tiberian Sun is bugged. They will only ever fire its primary weapon, even if you give it 2 weapons to choose from.
Fun Fact: In the Tiberium Essence mod for C&C3 Tiberium wars they actually gave the Orca's the ability to use their Minigun again. (Fantastic mod, would highly recommend if you want a more Tiberian Sun look to the units)
Man I love this channel. I wish CnC got more respect and care than it did. So much potential from a series that wasn't able to properly present itself.
Ahh! A 20 minute documentary about a fictional aircraft in a fictional war narrorated by a man with a soothing voice and smooth Frank Klepacki music! Fantastic!
You sir get a sub from me! I love C&C Lore, and am a 37 year adult. This series from Westwood will always be my favorite, so much so that I work on path finding an graph theory professionally.
Ya but, can you imagine orcas with unlimited ammo? You'd never keep any harvesters against GDI. Four orcas can take already out four harvesters in a few seconds with proper micro. If you watch the competitive scene you'll see it all the time.
@@doggo_woo Aesthetically ya, but feel a more meaningful balance change would be to let the orcas fire at air targets with there missiles. But that would take away the firehawks roll. :/
@@simplebott4812 Or just make their missiles against air targets a bit... In-accurate. Since those are anti tank missiles, not anti air missiles. But adding a minigun with a lesser rate of fire would be better.
@@doggo_woo ya I agree. Im just coming from a competitive mechanics stand point. The reason I say they need to be able to counter air is because both Nod air units can engage air targets granted the vertigo does it poorly. Maybe giving the orca the mutant maradurs chaingun so they can be effective. But the problem with the chaingun is you cant have a unit that can effectively engage all possible targets cost less then the 2500-5000 range like the tier 3s and uber units.
Just found your channel through Redit. Have to say, you make some top quality content here. I've wanted for years for a dedicated CNC lore channel (granted, that's not the only thing you do) and you sir, have delivered.
Just FYI : the Carryall itself came from the novel Dune, which the Westwood game Dune 2000 and its sequel was based on, and it serve the exact same role as it did in game. Unfortunately, no two sources seem to agree on what it look like.
The Orca from Tib Dawn always made me wonder if that design could ever be a functional VTOL. Not in a derisive way, but more a growing interest in heli-jets and VTOLs brought on by the Orca line in general. Great video, thanks for the upload!
I always viewed the engine as a huge issue: - Turbofan engines have a rather slow spool up time. If it was a high bypass TF, with variable fan blades (similar to helicopter collective), this could probably be mitigated. Otherwise altitude control would be very sluggish. - The engines would be susceptible to flameouts during certain maneuvers, as not enough air is sucked in. - Both engines need do be balanced constantly. If one of them fails, that's it. You can't just link both 'fans' with an axle, like the V-22, because you need that combustion for extra thrust. - You can't really put too much armor on it, it's gonna be pretty complex and it's a huge target. A single hit from a MANPAD or ZSU-23 could be fatal, or at least very costly. All things considered, I think the Harrier already fits into the same role nicely. It can't hover in combat, but it's fast and maneuverable to avoid fire. On a small scale though? Sure, slap some fat EDFs on it and set up the flight controller properly. You can find some videos about that kind of setup on YT. Not the most detailed models, but cool nonetheless. You still don't wanna lose an engine, but crashes would be much cheaper ;)
@@fonesrphunny7242Arguably, that maybe the point in the Tiberium setting. Everything can be fabricated on the spot except personnel, and Tiberium everywhere, equipment becomes almost dirtcheap with the only limiting factor being time and resources. The larger engines may have to do with the desparation to get an aircract capable of operating in the severe weather of the Tiberium setting. Whatever sciences and engineering put into the thing was made with getting it shipped out quick, and later on they just didn't put more effort than necessary in fixing or improving the design. It doesn't help that GDI funding got cut as the world government worked to contain the spread of the crystal.
I remember fighting past the Core Defender in Firestorm, I probably threw 20 Banshees trying to bust CABALs core, got it to about half health, 3 Orca Bombers finished it off in one pass.
There's a really good Orca Assault Craft someone made in SimplePlanes (sadly not in VR as far as I know). It takes a bit of getting used to but the the VTOL capabilities are incredibly useful while also being able to move as fast as a jet in foward-flight at the cost of fuel consumption.
Refering to the orca types: mark 1, mark 2 and mark 3. Could it be that the mark 4 is the playable type of orca ingame. And the mark 3 maybe is the commander abiliy: orca strike inn C&C 3? Great lore video btw! Keep ut up! 😆
The exhaust going into the fans would probably work as a cooling unit, cooling the exhaust to rid allot of the heat coming from the aircraft so heat seeking missiles have a harder time targeting it
Super high quality again! The attention to detail. May I suggest next video about railguns including physics, history. It's no brainer for your video creative skills!!
Tiberian sun had this cool thing where u could take ur fliers like Orca and set them on circle patrol around your base with one waypoint set to repair bay along way. It was so satisfying watch couple of them tear apart any intruders then go back on their own to self repair and resume patrol afterwards again :)
I would like to note another thing you missed: The orca from teaser tailer, indeed, does have 2 pilot seats, but is only crewed by one. So maximum capacity of 2 is plausible
Yep I'll get around to doing a video on their spacecraft. Basically I have a list of video topics that I'm gradually getting through. I want to get through most of the Tiberium timeline topics before starting ones in the Red Alert or Generals games. I also try to alternate between Brotherhood related videos and GDI ones.
I'd love a lore video on the Walker mechs of the GDI. I've always found those fascinating and endaring. Nothing says power more than a giant walking tank that towers over everyone and laughs at the idea of "high-ground" because it is the high-ground itself.
here is something to understand about the difference in Marks: Rarely is development of a weapon system linear, often times there are many versions of a given craft going at once and not all of them will see the light of day. The Mark 4 at one point could have been considered a failed design, was shelved, and later revisited and updated using new technology making the craft state-of-the-art despite how old the original design was.

Hello, there is a guided version of the Hydra rockets known as the APKWS, which are Hydras that have laser sensors on wingtips, and could be used against aircraft, too.
It is possible that Orca Strike Craft (C&C3) is the MKIII. Due to it having traditional Orca fuselage with new horizons engines. And MKIV also having this new horizons engines too.

Hi i love this video! I am a streamer and competitive player of the remastered tiberium dawn game and wondered if i could use this video for my be right back screen. If i am allowed i will reference your youtube along with the video. Great work very interesting to watch .
What? Are you serious? I have like 600 hours KW and I have never seen it. Is it taken out of the expansion? I also watch the competitive scene and haven't seen them do it either.
Actually, I believe there IS a Orca Fighter Mark III but it's not the ones you build normally in Tiberium Wars rather it's the ones that show up when you order a tactical air strike as one of GDI's powers.
In tiberian sun, I tweaked the Orca fighter's weapons to where it works more like the Banshee, and also made it faster but with less armor. The end result is far more effective and satisfying to witness, in my opinion. 🙃
