The best way to take out the convoy is to use 2klbs bombs to take out the aa ships then I use another run of 2klbs bombs and drop them on the bridge. 1 hit kill. Manually guided rockets to the bridge also destroys them. For carrier. 2x run with 2k bombs. 4 on center. 4 on guns will destroy it. Sometimes 4 on the guns kill it.
Couple of months ago maybe the Carrier was moving with two destroyers escorting it .. I guess they changed that? They made it alone in the sea and not moving at all? If that is the case then 2000lb should be the better choice since the first run.
Since rocket farming airfields has made a comeback lately, I'd be happy if you could test the Japanese premium Phantom since it has the highest rocket count by way of extra pods over even the American phantoms. 280 rockets, and it doesn't cost 20k plus if you don't make it back to base.
@@Hunter_i86 The Roland's missile tracking was fixed recently, as was their elevation. They simply have a max elevation and you can come in from above it, fire your rockets and get out. At least the Phantom has the speed to get back to base instead of just diving to your death. My Kai is stock and expensive to play so I was hoping for a better way of grinding than hoping I don't get dunked on by the new high tier jets and F14s since even the EJ will almost always face them. I hope there will be a new air sim BR tier at some point so I can avoid the 4th gens at least two days a week.
@@austinkylereid each rocket counts as a hit since they have explosive filler, just like naval, each hit gives you silver. It takes a lot of bombs to make up the same score as a load of rockets. It's why you see planes like SU-25s have less than a ton dropped but over 10k score in air sim. Bombs are better for bases, but rockets on an af gets a lot of silver for not a lot of effort. It's very easy useful actions in ec.
The missiles hitting tops of ships is, I would assume because the missile aims for the middle of the targeting "square" which normally means, either the funnel or the space between them. Same with lock on bombs, which always hit the middle of the carrier, maybe if they AS34s were fired from the top they would hit? I need to test that
This reminds me of the ah64d mission I did yesterday and I had to get close to a boat with 2x30mm anti air guns attached to it. The hellfires wouldn’t track the laser for whatever reason so I had to get within guns range to properly lase the mi8 that landed on it lol
I do a6 with the big gbus come in high and fast laze, slight nose down and turn left or right 90° to keep Lazer lock. Works every time and you are safe.
For a moment there I thought gaijins F-16 was about to get out rated by a slow MiG-29 on the deck. What the heck did gaijin do to bombs though?! 2000lb Mk84 barely scratches a tanker ship??
Yea, today I'm gonna finish spading the F16A in sim. I need to get countermeasures, mavericks, and the flight performance mods. I've been spamming the MiG -29 in sim lately. Hunter I hear someone made a f16 fire control / radar warning mod. Check it out when you get a chance.

Hey, Quick question to anyone seeing this. How do i know when to drop my guided bombs in sim? Like in the tornado IDS the laser guided ones for example
Wouldn't it be more efficient if you had used the 4x 2000 pound bombs from the beginning? Seems like they did much more damage because in 1 go you could hit multiple parts of the carrier, I'm not that knowledgeable so feel free to correct any misunderstanding I have!
Well, this battle was like a learning path so it wasn't ideal for sure haha, if I do it again I might carry one GBU-8 and 3x 2000lb in the same loadout.
I have been able to kill the Carrier with the 4 2,000 pound bombs in 1 run. I spread them from the rear of the ship to right next to the Tower/Bridge. It one shot it. Have to get as much dispersal as possible from back to mid.
It depends on your altitude and speed as well, Walleye bombs like to glide so they might overshoot. I recommend dropping them in a slight dive or if you want to drop them while level flying try to be at 5000m altitude and the target 10km away.
The Denmark carrier. Oh how I love thee. Oh how I loathe thee. I have done bombing runs with the GR7 the F1CT the F4E, F4J, F4F, F5C, F5E, A7D, A7E ,SU 22 M3, Mirage 5, A10late, SU 25, SU 7 and 17 as wells as the F105D and a lot more besides. Sometimes you get lucky and she catches fire then burns till she blows up. Sometimes the fire goes out in seconds. Bombs will often fail to pierce her internals and rockets do little to nothing. But every time I play that map , the late game for me is all about sinking her. I must prove that it is possible. And I have. But I have also failed. Again and again. She is my obsession and someday I will find a way to sink her every time I hunt her. C'est la vie. P.S. I really hoped that the anti ship missiles on the event tornado would be able to get it done. But Gaijin always finds a way to disappoint.
@@kny1098 Like I said dude. Enjoy it. If it is fun and you do well than I am not going to judge or look down on you. But my time at low tiers has been over for a quite some time. Rank 6 and up is all I have been playing for a while now. And I have my own fun. Hunting the Denmark carrier is one way I enjoy my self in sim. There are many other little objectives I set myself on the different maps. And while Top tier is not always the best experience, I have more fun there than anywhere else in the game now.

HOW do you "Non penetrate" a ship with a freaking GBU-8?
i think the bomb hitting the deck of the carrier is the non penetration part, then the explosion should have a bit more impact then non-pen
Because locking onto ships is bugged it’s same reason AS.34s always hit a steam funnel, this is doing same thing
@Klaus_Klavier because all tv/radar guided munitions target a point above the ship. Not really a glitch but an oversight by gaijin

@@scaredandconfused9685 I’ve tested it and they still sucked. Only good against PT boats because they are small enough
Hey Hunter, I love the vid! Hope to see more DCS content soon. Do you think you could differentiate between your sim and RB vids in the title?
the visibility in this plane looks fantastic
Amazing!
BUBBLE canopy for you

Absolutely amazing dogfight at the start, im still getting into sim and have no skill in the dogfighting department so i never really see those.
For a moment there I thought gaijins F-16 was about to get out rated by a slow MiG-29 on the deck. What the heck did gaijin do to bombs though?! 2000lb Mk84 barely scratches a tanker ship??
They ruined bombs for no reason ..
The problem is TV guided or even radar guided like on the tornado target some silly point in the air above the ship instead of the ship itself
Yea, today I'm gonna finish spading the F16A in sim. I need to get countermeasures, mavericks, and the flight performance mods. I've been spamming the MiG -29 in sim lately. Hunter I hear someone made a f16 fire control / radar warning mod. Check it out when you get a chance.
Cool! will search it in WT Live :D
It'd be nice if the game actually let the bomb penetrate the carrier deck. It would be devastating if it got inside the ship and exploded.
Weird, my bombs usually explode right after the 'non penetration' and absolutely demolish the ships. I keep a 1.5 to 2 second timer.
TV GBU-8? Also this is not a normal ship .. it is the aircraft carrier which the toughest thing in WT.
@@Hunter_i86 On the harrier gr.7, is there a way to skip looking through the "nose targeting camera" and go straight to the TIALD Pod and then back to cokcpit?
The f-16 is great for sim with its clear and open canopy
Hey Hunter, nice video :)
Question: How do you trim your aircraft that well?
Hello my friend, I use SAS damping most of time .. and sometimes I trim elevator on SAS manual to around 5% elevator when I feel the plane is heavy and when taking off as well. Thanks :)
Thanks Hunter :)
I think it would be cool to have helos in sim along with a LHA or LHD
You were locked but moving the "+" symbol downwards, how did you do that??
Pitching the plane while inside the TV screen.
Hey Hunter, I’ve probably asked this before but what postFX settings do you use? Your game always looks sharp and cinematic 😅
Hello my friend, all default but color correction is "film".
you don't have a discord anymore?
In description my friend, I still have it.
@@Hunter_i86 it's just that your nickname is not there. he was from the top, I thought you came out)
For some reason guided weapons are bugged and don't really damage naval vehicles. But a normal bomb will. Very strange and annoying.
I love the SIM content
Hey how do you have your head so far zoomed out in cockpit
Mouse Wheel: Zoom Axis
In the States we usually call it an F-16 “Viper”
Good job, pilot!
I can usually get 1 aircraft carrier with 4x2000 dumb bombs off the f16a. I just spread them out on the deck.
Sounds fun .. will try it next time, this video is literally "What You Should Not Do Against The Aircraft Carrier" haha
The ADF can carrier land
You could try dropping one gbu-8 to stop the carrier then use conventional bombs to destroy it
Anyone else notice the ships don't move in sim any more.
Does the F16 have a bomb sight on the hud for dumb bombs?
Sure
@@Hunter_i86 when I toggle hud view, it just turns it off. I can’t figure it out.
This was truly painful to watch.

Gaijin's jank mechanics behind weapon locks for air to ground ordinance is really starting to show.
Is dealing with the carrier even woth it in terms of rewards? How much do you get out of that?
No my friend, it is just for challenge .. doing the usual ground pounding against tanks is more efficient.
@@Hunter_i86 Thanks, yeah I thought so :) Guess the reward is that big "Base Carrier fleet destroyed" then :D
It'd be nice if more creators would push for carrier gameplay in high tier Air RB it's greatly lacking this
