Planning a Pop Up Attack

[@OCinneide]

I love these videos. Instead of just a "tutorial" it expects you to already know how to fly your aircraft, how to navigate etc. It's like the missing "middle" tutorial between cold starts and full on mission walkthroughs.

Thanks. I appreciate it.

This is an extremely well-put together tutorial. Love the history included for context. Subscribed!

[@Sidekick65]

Thanks. I appreciate it. Hope you get a chance to explore the back catalog!

@@Sidekick65 I'm going through it as I type this. A ton of great stuff in there. Thank you for sharing!

[@pabletesoy]

Nice! Always very entertaining. It's wonderful to see how you "go deep" into some subjects. You could try to do some air to air! Thanks!

[@Sidekick65]

Thanks. I'll think about it.

I see a Harrier video, I click it. Good to see the little bird put into action.

[@Sidekick65]

Good Deal - I will remember that.

Great video Iain. Firstly that that is a great technique using the zones to work out the pull up and roll in points, it actually would make choosing these points a lot easier for aircraft with less advanced nav system where you might want to look for prominent ground features for these . You just need to look for a stand out feature on the circumference of the circle. So given that I would love to see this same run in your skyhawk.

[@Sidekick65]

Check my latest short. Skyhawk video on the way! And you CAN do it with the NAV computer.

Great video as always! It’s not a traditional iron bomber, however the DCS F-16C has a programmable IP and pull up point system that you can set up as offsets to a waypoint/target point for low level pop up attacks. You might be interested in looking into it even though it’s all digital rather than manual.

[@Sidekick65]

Interesting. Thanks for the tip. Next on the list, though is actually going to be going the other way - showing how to do thus with the just thr basic nav computer in the A-4

Glad you enjoyed it.

Great video man. thanks 👍🏼

[@Sidekick65]

Thanks. Glad you liked it.

[@terryboyer1342]

I feel that the first run in failure was my fault Iain. I forgot to remind you to flip the master arm to on. 🙁

[@Sidekick65]

Thanks for stepping up - but I think that one is on me!

[@suecobandito8954]

We regret to inform you of your sons death at the hands of the enemy as he forgot to place the Master Arm Switch to Arm...But it sure made for a huge explosion as all the undropped ordnance went up with the 35 million dollar aircraft he was flying. Oops.😄Good cinematics on that one. Telescopic depth-of-field.

[@Sidekick65]

Thanks... I think. :-)

[@HercNav]

Nicely done! Can you provide the mission file?

[@Sidekick65]

If you drop by my discord I should be able to fix you up.
