    So as stated in the video, we have moved into a closed beta test where a group of guys on the team are trying out the server as we try to fine tune a couple things here and there and get it ready to release. You will need the CHANNEL map, World War 2 Assets pack and at least 1 World War 2 Module (excluding the I-16) to fly on this server. This server will be a mix of PvP and PvE and should offer a fairly new experience every time you log in. As we near the release of the server keep an eye out for a release trailer video I am hoping maybe sometime THIS week to go public with the server. Thanks for watching guys much love.

      I like it from what I've seen. Having a server with such an open ended mission profile,-basically grab some buds, take off, go see what trouble you can get into-instead of being dependent on more scripted out missions, is brilliant. In fact, I think it models what real CAP was like back then--airplanes just flying around looking for enemy planes who were doing the same thing while everyone else was flying huge, strategic missions. It's a great way to get into some action that won't ever quite be repeated again.

    Pretty sure that 109 pilot was just trying to keep his plane in the air, hence the wobble. As for the spits firepower, the Hispanos do seem to lack the bite you'd expect. A single 20mm cannon hit should cause significant damage as long as its not a tracer round.

      @cosmicxsolitude6947 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      the two 20's are perfectly fine hes not hitting in his convergence so its not doing maximum damage. if he hit the plane in the convergence it would completely destroy the 109plus he was clipping the wings which can be good if both 20's are hitting the same spot but just 1 is gonna waste ammo.

    Stirring the pot was the stick movements used by British bombers to provide an evasive target to German fighters while giving the tail gunner the best target. I see you have 4 x 20mm cannon mounted and they should have cut that 109 to pieces, they performed like 30 cal.

    Imagine how devastating the Spitfire would have been in the Battle of Britain had it been equipped with 4 x 50cal Brownings like the Wildcat.
    The Supermarine's .303 Brownings were pretty much just rifle ammunition and unless you hit the pilot were incapable of the structural damage required to knock down a bomber or fighter easily.
    The 30 cal ammo would literally bounce off the engine block or other hardware whereas the 50 Cal guns such as the P-51 or P-47 used would tear great chunks of metal from engines and chassis members.

    • @travishutchings7068
      @travishutchings7068 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      the Browning .50 Cal was evaluated by the RAF, and rejected in favor of the Hispano 20mm. If Spitfires and Hurricanes had been armed with .50 Cal Brownings during the Battle of Britain, it would have potentially been a disaster, because at that time, the Browning M2 was very unreliable in a wing mount, and tended to jam under slight maneuvers. It wasn't really sorted out until around 1942

    • @GM-fh5jp
      @GM-fh5jp 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@travishutchings7068 Thanks for replies. I guess the intent of my original post was to point out (given working 50 Cals) how much more effective the British fighters would have been using the heavier ammunition rather than as a criticism of why they didn't. I never had much time for the Hispano cannon of that era, its low muzzle velocity would have required a fair bit of loft from distance or closing to knife fighting range when trying for a decent deflection shot. The impact of those Bf109 cannons must have been horrendous on the lightly built Spitfires.
      I wonder how the wooden Hurricane framework fared against them?
      Have any stats regarding damage to either types from such hits?

    I am missing someone like a Theodor Weissenberger on the German site to fly even only one of the Bf 109s. German site is not aggressiv enough. Like sitting ducks.

    The Mk9s guns are 2 20mm with 120 rds per and either 4 303cal or 2 50cal mgs. Those 303s are just rifle bullets and do not do much damage. The Mk1 spit had 8 303s in BOB 1940. Need to set up to only fire your 20s when you are sure to hit. Check your convergance too, looks like 200yds might be good for ur style.

    Any chance we can see some Pacific theater action? Corsairs and Hellcats launching from carriers and engaging Zeroes should be pretty damn cool.

    The B wing Spitfire only had four 0.303 calibre versus the P51's six 0.50 calibre. It will do less damage so may be about right. The A wing had eight 0.303 and the Mk. II-B wing Hurricane had 12 0.303 brownings for comparison.

      @@GrowlingSidewinder Oh indeed but you commented on the machine guns not seeming to do enough damage to 109s and that was my thought as to why. You seemed to be using just the 303s on the 109. That is all I meant by my comment.

    GS wondering if someone sees him is like a teenager wondering if someone likes them: I mean... He might not see me... *Obvious maneuvering in response to seeing them* Maybe he does... *Actively maneuvering for a shot* Hm... I think... Yeah, he might... But... *Spitfire explodes* I think he saw me, yeah.

    Dangit, this video is making this WWII aviation and flight simulator buff wish I had a PC that could actually run DCS well! Sadly all those planes, bombs, bullets, and other assets on this awesome-looking server would make my 2015 gaming laptop cry. Sigh…I’ll have to chug the cash to build a new gaming PC sooner or later…

    @old_guard2431 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Not for me to say, necessarily, (at my skill level) but I think a bit more elevator trim up would have made your Spit a bit more stable. It just looks like you are fighting a tendency for the plane to pitch down and bobbing a bit. (That’s a lot of “bits.”)
