Headline: “An F-22 snuck up on another F-22 while on runway. Are US planes TOO stealthy?”
lols
@@grimreapersI would like to see you try this with the Su 57
More at 7
@@t.r.4496 we had more F22s in this video than the number of Su-57's that the Russians can get airborne.
@@Firedad376 Lol, I don't know about that, how many of crashed at takeoff. Lmao. Love you Firedad.
Seriously. If I were in an F-5 and looked around and saw an F-22 sitting next to me, I'd just smile and give them a thumbs up. If they wanted me dead, I'd *be* dead.
would you intercept me?
I'd intercept me.
i'd believe this tale if it was f18, but f22? hahahahahhaahh
i mean f117
Yeah, you just make a heart shape with your hands, give a thumbs up, and turn toward home. Just hope the pilot feels too sympathetic to not turn you into a pink mist.
@@DoctorBrueckner you know the shady is on its last leg when its subjects have to celebrate fake events lol
Also, the F-5 they have is 100% not combat capable, they managed to get it running for one display and then probably never touched it again
Sneaking up on unsuspecting aircraft... I do be having serious Growling Sidewinder Flashbacks.
This would also be interesting as an Olympus situation. Raptors go in with a set of missions unknown to the Olympus master, and the Olympus master (masters?) has to find and kill them.
GS in an F-22 is a digital war crime. That man just goes mad with power.
"Guys, surround him, knock him down, and keep kicking so he stays down" - top gun, street gang style
There would be parameters that the Olympus master would have to follow. otherwise he could mass spawn aircraft until literally the server dies.
@@Firedad376 x amount of fighters/sams allowed, sorted. I wanna see if they can survive in F-5s against one lone raptor ace using the same awacs only strategy too though
Sneaky Raptor is still the best top tier video in all of GS library.
*F-22 in slightly creepy tone* "Would you intercept me? I'D intercept me"
HLC has ruined the F-22 (in the best of ways) for all of us, lol.
@smugfrog8111 how about the Marine F-35 and it's foot fetish?!
@@mfreed40kAND the fact that it's not impossible that the Marine F-35B is also a Weeb.
@mfreed40k 🫡 You sir, win the cookie! 😂
lame 2xlosers celebrating a fake event, lol
the formation fighting at the end was hilarious
Like Mover said Its like Top Gun at the end when you see 4 MIG28s doing barrel rolls arround a lone Tomcat.. but reversed..
"These things happen when you try parade takeoffs in F22s" USAF to congress when their pilots keep crashing from trying manuvers they saw on Grim Reapers
The little F-5 that couldn’t.
The most expensive kill on an F5 in history eeverrrrr, Dudes !!
I lost it at @24:04 when Cap mid-air collided and casually trashed a couple a Raptors hahaha
keeping the brand alive with fun things like this, priceless
Inverted is the only way to greet your opponents.
For the amount of F-22's lost going after one F-5, I dont think the USAF could afford going after two of them. Great video!
Headline- entire houthi air force was shot down.
In other news- one houthi fighter was shot down today.
Do you like plane, we have plane! Join Houthi Air Force today to experience plane!
couldnt do this mission at night because they wouldnt even fly the F-5 at night cause it wouldn't be able to see shit
A singular F-5? Run. That's the Demon of Razgriz.
W ace combat 5 reference
That's a lot of friendly losses from an enemy that didn't even see you...
Headline: “American Pilots Bully Houti Jet.”
I would pay to see that headline! 😂 I'd buy that for a dollar! 🤣
if there's gonna be any headline, it's how much money it just cost to take down one old jet with all those wasted f-22's lol.
Simba is the master, this was great fun thanks guys.
'HOT' is correct if you are facing away as well. To quote the manual: 'CONTACT aspect stabilized at 160-180
degrees angle from tail or 0-20 degrees angle from nose.'
Keep your distance, but don't look like you're trying to keeping your distance. I don't know. Fly casual
Don't be suspicious, don't be sus-pic-ious!
houthis running a mig28, maybe they were always the badguys in topgun, not the nation of badguyistan like i thought
25:07 The crew went after him like a pack of raptors!
That’s what I was thinking! “Cap! A bird of prey reference was right there!”
I can't believe you went up against a MiG-28 and lived.
Thats why they needed the stealth F22 (which does 10% of mig-28's power(
But you know, its not the plane, its the pilot
Danger Zone.
@@m1t2a1😂 Music playing! Welcome to the Danger Zone! 😊
a hangglider with a manpad can take down the f22 joke, lol
@@ariaspes3842 you seriously don't know what you're talking about. The F-22 is the most capable air superiority platform out there, no contest.
discipline? grim reapers?...your screwed 😂
Cap, thank you and all the guys for so much entertainment over all this time. I can hardley wait for your next videos to post, no matter what it involves, DCS or other! Peace.
That ending brawl to get the kill on the F-5 reminded me of the average Warthunder match 😂
Also, different title suggestion: Can 6 F-22 Raptors down the entire Houthi airforce in 1 day?
Imagine being that guy, flying along minding his own business, then he looks up and sees a Raptor on top of him
What would you do especially when you saw the other 5 behind you? 😱💩😭🤣🫡
Wave a white flag
@@JackThelRipper F-22 Raptors say " Take no prisoners!" 😭🤣
imagine if this fake story was true, lol
@@paulvamos7319 pilot would be too smart flying a 22 that is not even combat ready, lol
The MK1 eyeball has a quite variable production run. 20/20 is merely described as the average performance of the MK1 eyeball's performance at 20'. It is not uncommon for MK1 eyeballs to be able to resolve at 30' what the average MK1 will resolve at 20'.
If the Houthis had selected for pilots equipped with superior 40/20 MK1 eyeballs and the F22 pilot was flying with inferior 15/20 MK1 eyeballs (presumably under a medical waiver), the Houthis could be operating with a considerable detection range advantage in this scenario.
Given that the Houthis have so few fighter jet, with such crummy radar, they would probably be doing eye tests to select for individuals with superior MK1 eyeballs.
The houthis may not have the resources to ensure pilots have the superior MK1 eyeball
Grim Reapers really are the People's Squadron. Cheers and Beers for you all. Keep doing what you do.
Pretty sure that’s a MiG 28 you need to get your plane identification up to date!😂
14:50 Loving the Stoneburner server.
I'd like to thank DARK for helping me learn A/A refuelling, maybe someday I'll be good enough to fly in formation too.
what /dark did a thing. awesome to here
"Don't worry we will cut it out."
Narrator: He didn't.
"Guess what guys, I LIED!"
The whole premise is hilarious! Luv it! Thanks GR :)
If this was an actual fight, it would be a tactical victory for the Houthi and the entire raptor squadron would be court martialed.
**F-22 wants to know your location**
*F22 knows your location and is rapidly approaching
@@cockatoo010 It knows where you are because it knows where you aren't!
F-22 sees you when you're sleeping. It knows when you're awake.
soon to come to yemen khordad15 knows where you are, lol
Someone is playing around with making their text Bold....lol
90-degrees down? Glass-bottom f-5?
Spookily enough, it’s called a …drum roll…
Hemisphere
Seeing all those Raptors in formation was so freaking cool! I love your channel and I don't game or play sims at all but I can appreciate the effort everyone puts into these videos and I love military aviation. Thanks for the content!
I finally got my Thrustmaster and VR headset bought. It is on its way as I type. I'll be buying me the F-15 as soon as my equipment gets here.
Good luck
@@nikolaideianov5092 It's going to be a big change. I have been flying with the keyboard and mouse. Lol
LOL! The absolute disrespect shown to that F5
Things to do in DCS NO.7556 Fly your F5 module without wingmen and pretend you're the Houthi Air Force.
The MiG-28 does have a problem with its inverted flight tanks, it won't do a negative G push over.
Just imagine looking around and seeing 4 F-22 in a super tight formation with you, and you had no idea how long they had been there.
Finding a single plane that's actually not an awful exercise. You could add commercial traffic? I really think several of these using different aircraft would be interesting. And having Simba flying the target might be fun too.
Theres one helluva spectacular canyon run on that map from or to Dahab. The route Moses took through the mountains to the red sea. So windy and twisty and deep that it may well be best suited for Choppers.
Least inefficient GR intercept.
I love the... "But, what he does have is Mk 1 eyeballs, in his pilot. He has two of them, and he has 20/20 vision."
Being conservative...and a Grim Reaper...a sentence or command I never thought I would see. Great video!
I love you guys!🤟
Seeing this it was hard to not get the image of the seagulls from Finding Nemo out of my head when you were all behind that Mig 28
So good! Top 10 videos for me!
Grim Reapers, always good for a giggle.
Guys, today's mission was freaking hilarious! Best laugh I've had in weeks! 🤣🤣🤣
That was funny guys. Great video.
It was cool theory! And proof of what happened with the Iranian Air force in the Phantom F-4 I believe. I think they also came across his Comms and told him "He Oughta go Home"! I believe the F-22 Pilots flew right up under his Jet to check out what Stores he had onboard, then backed off and called out to him, them. I don't remember if it was a flight of two or just one, I think a flight of Two. They checked out! I'm sure the Raptors would've had them downed within 5-15 Seconds! I don't even think they would have to move to fire at them even after they took evasive action. You guys would know better with those Helmet Mounted Display Systems. I'm sure you guy's have heard or seen this Story/Video? If not it's Public Info so you can Google it. Thanks Team GR!
Yeah it was a flight of 2x F-4 Phantom IIs. Only one Raptor, as far as Im aware.
The Raptor had been shadowing the flight for several km, taking note of every piece of pylon-mounted ordinance on the two planes (a pair of wvraams and I believe a pair of rocket pods on each airframe). The Raptor pilot then went on an open channel and told the F-4 pilots, “you two should go home” as he maneuvered into formation with the two Iranian aircraft, which, after a few seconds of likely confusion, spotting the Raptor, and then panicking, would break off and withdraw.
I think they’ve already made a video about this
th-cam.com/video/E1J4Z9fv98E/w-d-xo.html
F-22 Raptor vs. F4 Phantom - "You Should Go Home Now"
The Fat Electrician you tube.
@@Ellaphant sure i'l love to see that fake video, lol
It does make it fun, you make everything fun, you are a natural comedian!
A few years ago two F-22's snuck up on 2 Iranian F-4's. According to the story one flew underneath the Iranian aircraft checked the payload then came up undetected between them. I believe the radio message to them was"You should go home now!"
happened in 2013 one of the most hilariously disrespectful things ever. told them you should just quit while you're behind lol
Yeah they were flying to intercept our Reaper or Global Hawk drones, CENTCOM sensed something funny was going on since they kept shooting them down so they had a delayed backup (the 22s) as to not scare them off too fast but to show them they can easily be intercepted themselves without even knowing.
I heard, of course, taking this with a grain of salt cause it was on the Iranian side, but one of the pilots quit after that.
@@okcstormchaserof course he quit, I'm certain he wouldn't want to fly with the "brownpants" callsign from there on.
@@bradleydanek3958 iran's f4 would send that f22 museum piece to a junkyard real quick, lol
@@okcstormchaser yeah the iranian pilot probably laughed so hard at this fake event that got fired, lol
Didn't some f22 sneak up on some Iran f4 phantoms?
Wildly entertaining.
THIS IS THE BEST UTUBE CHANNEL THATS COVERING DCS Absolutely Extraordinary. Thank you, valid viewers I love you guys. GRIM REAPERS the Absolute Best 👌 👍 😍 🥰
Next video: A US Navy carrier group vs. the entire Liechtenstein military.
next time, use Air Force 1...to keep things interesting.
disregard...NCIS😅😂
Thank you.
Thanks!
What happens when you do a fly by at maximum speed, in close formation, on all sides of that plane. That would be fun!
Loved the video @grimreapers! Can't wait for the next video man! Next time, could you try flying Eurofighter Typhoons of the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) Against Houthi/Yemeni F-5's? It might prove a bit more Interesting as the Typhoons are still larger than the F-5.
Size Comparison of the F-22 Raptor, Eurofighter Typhoon and the F-5E Tiger II.
Northrop F-5E Tiger II:
• Length: 48 ft. 2.25 in. (14.826 Meters).
• Wingspan: 26 ft. 8 in. (8.205 Meters), 27 ft. 11.875 in. (8.612 Meters) with wingtip missiles.
• Height: 13 ft. 4.5 in. (4.115 Meters).
Lockheed Martin F-22A Raptor:
• Length: 62 ft. 1 in. (19.102 Meters).
• Wingspan: 44 ft. 6 in. (13.692 Meters).
• Height: 16 ft. 8 in. (5.128 Meters).
Eurofighter Typhoon:
• Length: 52 ft. 4 in. (16.102 Meters).
• Wingspan: 35 ft. 11 in. (11.051 Meters).
• Height: 17 ft. 4 in. (5.333 Meters).
So of the three Aircraft here, the F-5E is the Smallest and the F-22 is the Largest, Although the Typhoon is the Tallest.
As I mentioned in the Hercules vs Chinese Destroyers video a few days ago, I have the Reinforcement Fleet for "Operation Shoestring II" on the Island of Cyprus. I should preface this with the fact that Fletcher-class Destroyer USS Taylor (DD-468) is not part of the Fleet, it was an error on my part while trying to Remember what ships I had chosen for this without having to go back to @Camodo Gaming's channel.
• Cleveland-class Light Cruiser USS Columbia (CL-56).
• Allen M. Sumner-class Destroyer USS Laffey (DD-724).
• Fletcher-class Destroyers USS Cassin Young (DD-793) and USS Kidd (DD-661).
• Bayfield-class Attack Transport Ship USS Cambria (APA-36) (Transporting More Troops for the Forces on Donkk (Cyprus) for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Landing Ship Tank Mark 2 (LST(2)) LST-1-subclass LST-393 (Carrying more Vehicles and Equipment for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Cimarron-class Fleet Oiler USS Neosho (AO-23) (Carrying Fuel Oil for the Ships of the Fleet).
• Liberty Ship Tanker Configuration SS Alan Seeger (Carrying Fuel for the Vehicles and Equipment on Donkk (Cyprus) for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Liberty Ship Boxed Aircraft Transport Configuration SS Albert M. Boe (Now the Star of Kodiak in Alaska) (Carrying P-38J Lighting Fighter-Bombers, A-20G Havoc Medium Bombers and PBY-5A Catalina Flying Boats for Operations from Dreimor Airstrip (Paphos Airport) in support of the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Crater-class Cargo Ship USS Mintaka (AK-95) (Carrying Supplies for the Forces on Donkk (Cyprus) for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Crater-class Cargo Ship USS Lynx (AK-100) (Carrying a Landing Craft Tank Mark 6 (LCT 6) to help unload LST-393 by Terminal Spycakes and Driemor Airstrip (Port Limassol and Paphos Airport) as well as Supplies for the Drive East Towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
• Crater-class Cargo Ship USS Crater (AK-70) (Carrying Supplies for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta)).
This part of the Forces for the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta) will have the following plan.
• The USS Columbia (CL-56), USS Laffey (DD-724), USS Cassin Young (DD-793) and USS Kidd (DD-661) will escort the Fleet over to the Island of Donkk (Cyprus) where the Transports can unload in the Area of Terminal Spycakes (Port Limassol). Once they reach the area, they can Join the USS Cleveland (CL-55) in Providing Naval Gunfire Support for the Troops and Equipment as they make the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta). They can Top off their Fuel Stores will The USS Neosho (AO-23) and their Ammunition Stores with either USS Murzim (AK-94) or USS Mintaka (AK-95) if need be.
The USS Lynx (AK-100) will lower each of the LCT 6's 3 Sections into the Water as they're assembled like an oversized model kit. Once the LCT 6 is put together, it can help with Unloading the USS LST-393 by acting as a Floating Bridge. This will mean that the LST-393 will have to open it's Clamshell Doors and allow the LCT 6 to moor/tie itself to the LST-393 and the Tanks and Vehicles can just go down the LST's Bow Ramp and the LCT's Stern Gate, Across the LCT and down the LCT's Bow Ramp and onto the Beach so they can get to the Frontlines.
• The Albert M. Boe will deliver the Lockheed P-38J Lighting Fighter-Bombers, Douglas A-20G Havoc Medium Bombers and Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina Flying Boats in Crates to Terminal Spycakes (Port Limassol) for Dreimor Airstrip (Paphos Airport). Once they've been Put together like Model Kits, they can Provide Air Support for the Troops and Equipment as they make the Drive East towards Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta).
• The Neosho is a Fleet Oiler, meaning she can Refuel the Ships of the Fleet if need be.
• The Bayfield-class Attack Transport Ships Carry Troops and some of the Equipment for the Amphibious Assault. They Carry up to 80 Officers and 1,146 Enlisted Troops and had a Crew of 51 Officers and 524 Enlisted. Most ships were Armed with 2 Single 5"/38 Caliber Guns, 2 to 4 Twin Mount and 2 Single Mount 40 millimeter Bofors Anti-Aircraft Guns and 18 Single Mount 20 millimeter Oerlikon Anti-Aircraft Guns. They had 12 LCVP's each able to carry 36 Fully Understand Troops or 8,100 pounds of General Cargo, 4 LCM 3's Each able to Carry 60 Fully Equipped Troops, 60,000 pounds of Cargo or a 30-ton Tank like the M4A3(Late) Sherman Medium Tanks in the Operation as well as 3 LCP(L)'s that can Also Carry 36 Fully Equipped Troops or 6,700 to 8,100 pounds of Cargo.
• The Crater-class Cargo Ships are Just Normal, Cargo Carrying Liberty Ships in Navy Service. The Navy also had Liberty Ships in Tanker Configuration in service which were known as the Armadillo-class Tankers.
Once Terminal Camodo (Port Famagusta) has been Captured by the Player Base, The Cargo Ships can make cargo runs between Camodo (Famagusta) and Terminal Spycakes (Port of Limassol) with the Occasional Cargo run to the Arctic and back.
Let me know what you guys think about this and I'll catch you in your next video! I'll have the Beaches for the Initial Landings and the Set-up for this Campaign in DCS ready for you by then, just be ready to look at Cyprus in Google Maps for References.
This reminds me of when some country tried to shoot down an USAF drone and the 22's, went under, looked at the ordnances, then responded and told them to leave the area.
That was a very fun looking mission. It was also a throw back ti the old GR DCS science videos. It's good to see field of view is fairly well modeled in the game. Another throw back was almost when someone said "you wack disawinn". Next would've been something about Cap's Vietnamese girlfriend. Then it'd be double demonitized.
Apparently right and left are different in the UK
Absolutely, that's why you lot drive on the wrong side of the road 😊😊😊😊
The runway incident does show how there are no ‘safe’ missions, no matter how obtuse they may seem.
I have a possible video suggestion: a naval/air battle (America v china?) in like the heaviest possible winds (while able to launch aircraft). I wonder how it would affect things like LRASMs or other low-altitude missiles.
This was an interesting -- if unusual -- mission; I also just finished 1972 The Rescue Of BAT 21 Bravo From North Vietnam | DCS... that was a good one as well.
If Tom Cruise is flying, the Houthi Air Force only needs one plane. As Maverick taught us, it's not the plane.......
21:52 just imagine him looking in the mirrow rn^^
Lmao at the formation flying at the end 🤣
They also have at least one Mi8!
It might be fun to see exactly WHAT missions the Houthis could do with their 1 F5. Whose day could they ruin? What could they pull off with skill and determination? What if those dudes in the F5 cockpit were the main characters.
This video reminds me of that time a Raptor pilot formed up on a couple Iranian F-4s and straight up told them to go home.
“Oh Dear” lol
Seriously sneaky mission.. The Professor of Sneakology at Oxford University would be very proud of you..
I think the minister of silly walks would also like their takeoff and formation dog fight
Next up... Can usaf stealth fighters sneak up on migrating geese?
lol yes
Ask the Canadian's .
Just seen a video from ward carroll using a clip from one of your videos 👍👏
There we have it! An F-5's got a shot at some F-22s if it just stays put, flies level, and tempts the F-22 pilots into some bad ideas! 😅
Alternate headline, single f5 responsible for loss of several f22
*_"And now, for something completely different."_* 😉
Alternate vid title: "How do you make a F-5 pilot soil his flight suit?"
That's obviously a Mig-28. The best thing to do is fly inverted over his cockpit in a Tomcat. Highway to the Danger Zone.
Do the Hoithiewooks even have an Air Force ;D ? I love these videos...
I do wonder if a pilot would feel a difference in the aircraft with another plane that close.
Do Hellenic vs Turkish Air Forces next!
Easy Hellenic With F-16 , Mirage 2000 ,Rafale , and F-35
Paint the F-5 black with a red star and play the song highway to the danger zone. 😂
It kinda became Ace Combat at the end
"You really ought to go home." - F-22 pilot to Iranian F-4 pilot, 2013
"We got him! It only cost us 5 raptors" - a US general after this mission
When you said 'semisphere' I thought "he means hemisphere",but it occurred to me that they both mean the same thing in Greek and Latin. This sent me on a search that clarified the fact that both words are correct and semisphere appears in the Oxford English Dictionary.
I lernd someting tuday!
Can you guys recreate the BF3 F-18 mission "Going Hunting"
It's not the plane, it's the man in the box
Good, entertaining video. But honestly - searching for some one by flying like this NO. A 10nm wide line YES.
Hey Grim Reapers i been watching your vids for a while and i love your scenarios as they add a bit of realism... Here is a scenario i would like to put forth...Can 2x F-22's cover a bomber wing of 5x F-35A's (JSF) under fire from the Iranian Airforce with F-5, F-4, F-14, and MIG-29s, successfully cover and bomb the main Iranian Airforce base. Modifiers are 24x F-14s active, 22x F-4 on emergency Launch when enemy sighted, 16x F-5 on patrol, and 15x MIG-29 in Active flight. Player controlled vehicles are F-22 and F-35s, loss of both F-22s will result in emergency fighter launch from carrier group nearby of 4x F/A-18 Super Hornets or 2x F-35C's, loss of more than 2x F-35A's will result in mission failure. Successful Victory conditions are total wipe of enemy aircraft or the successful bombing of the airfield and exfill past off shore carrier group. Additional Support could include a fuel tanker and AWACS. Also F-35A's are allowed to mount no more than 2x AMRAAM's and must reserve the rest of ordinance for GBU's.
