- In this video I tango with 2 x MIG-29s, 2 x SU-27 & 2 x SU-33 in my F/A-18C Hornet that I am slowly learning after flying Tornado GR4 and Hawk in the Royal Air Force for 20 years.
I have 6 x AIM-9X + Gun and they all have just gun else I'd die very quickly!

4:07 "If you don't know where they are, they're behind you...". Nice.
This was absolutely epic to watch. Listening to all the information and call outs whilst taking in the entire picture of what you were dealing with was brilliant. The hornet is a fantastic dogfighter in DCS, one of the few aircraft I can actually use effectively air to air. Great stuff Tim!
"There he is"
"Oh wait, that's a parachute"
xD
Davies, today you are flying the flag not only for all Hornet pilots but also for all of Wales! Get after it Matey!
GET AFTER IT, YESSSSSSSSSSSS!
@@FastJetPerformance Good show! Next time if you don't want them to be so angry, don't paint your name on the canopy. Once they read "DAVIES" their blood instantly boiled remembering that TOP SECRET Brief of you being that guy who waxed so many of their Comrades over the North Sea.
@@knightonwarbeck1969 That was me, I cannot lie :)
Epic scrap. Loved it. Really makes it in VR. Looking forward to the next ding dong.
DUDE! watching you fight along with your commentary really makes the difference. Here the average every man gets the chance to see hear and almost feel what it's like to be in the cockpit with you. I enjoy the micro management of systems inside the cockpit as well as your head being outside at the same time. A real treat to experience.
Awesome to watch - as a very new DCS hornet pilot - watching a real pilot in wild fur balls - calling out all the things that he’s looking for - speed, aspect, fuel calls, vectoring etc. it’s insightful
At slow speed and above 20 units of alpha your rudders have huge authority to roll the jet it works really well if you are coming over the top at really low speed. You can stomp a rudder and the jet just rotates the nose to point anywhere. Great for a 9x shot from above. 380 kts is kind of the sweet spot to get a good rate, and a small turn circle. G-limiter will keep your max G down until you burn off a bunch of fuel. When you select gun the radar goes to wide scan ACM mode. Forward Castle switch slaves the radar bore site to the helmet. You have to hit the switch every time it drops the lock. Aft castle for vertical scan mode. You can pull massive alpha without a departure but you pay with airspeed. It can force an overshoot if the guys is about to gun you. You can drag him into a low speed scissors. Just mind your altitude. The jet is controllable even at 70 kts, but will be descending at high alpha.
This was intense and interesting to watch, especially since we can hear your "thoughts" on each separate moment of the fight. The only alteration I'd be fond of is a little PIP somewhere in the lower corner with Tacview overhead rendering of the fight.
Dude, this is so much fun to watch! Definitely the best DCS video I've seen, and that's saying a lot!
❤️❤️❤️
I really liked the first person aspect video plus the narrative alongside it - great stuff!
"What's the deal with this?" said every pilot ever. Usually more than once.
Brilliant stuff. So good to hear the running commentary and live feedback.
That was crazy. I have been watching all the handling stuff in the hawk, and thinking wow there's a lot going on. Forgetting that you are there to use the aircraft to fight. So much greater workload. Throwing the jet around the sky. Loved it.
I find that putting the RWR on the HUD helps with SA a lot.
Truth
Holy crap. Never held my breath for 23 minutes before. Nice fights Davies!
Thx, Amy ❤️💯👍
Loved it. Great to hear your thought process during the fights. Hope to see you do a lot more DCS! :)
another great video!! your commentary makes all your videos unique and special. can really feel the tension during the fight.
He reminds me of Gordon Ramsay, just instead with fighters and guns, lmao
I love watching you fight and commentate. I could watch you do this for hours!! Thanks for sharing these amazing skillz with the world fam! ;)
When a real pilot says, "what does that do? I don't know, we should probably press that..... Ermmmmm."
I really enjoyed that. Great video. Ex armourer love missiles in the air. Haha. Keep them coming!
If you don't know where they are they 're behind you
Its soo true
ahhh RAF man good , nice to see the knowledge in flow during task managment
That was awesome Tim, even I was sweating just watching. Have a look at a guy called Mover, he and some other ex military pilots have just finished commentating on the DCS Digital Dog fighting Championships 2020,. I watched the final and I thought the only thing missing is your input.
Thanks for making the Vid.
Truth right there, James :)
That was a proper white knuckle, lung collapsing, vertigo inducing thrill ride. _Nicely_ done man 💯💯
always entertaining when you get right into it
This is like a Ace Combat mission but realistic
Demon Lord of the Round Table irl....
Very good nice to see it from your side
typical fighter pilot.. calling out your speed every 30 seconds. Nice video.. keep up the good work Tim :)
nice video . Like the constant analysis .Lots of emphasis on energy managment
Nice video, real interesting, would be great to see you review your fights after in tacview, also more detail on how what is happening what you are doing and why. Just found you after having watched a fair few of the American channels. Always good to see British military people doing their stuff, best in the world :) . Currently I am just developing an f16 mod for VTOL VR, not sure if you have played that at all, very different feel to DCS (all the switches, etc in game are directly interactable). Will be watching more of your videos. BTW some tremendous flying and great examples of using energy.
this is so frantic haha, would love to see back in tacview
Love love love the commentary! Nice flying to :)
I've not done any BFM since I had Lock on "modern air combat" back in 2004 😬 I've got the F15C in DCS and need to map out the controls and spend some time with it and give the Harrier a break :)
Brilliant...
TWS before the merge Tim, nose wheel sterring to change target and rifle,,, if you go bore sight in guns the radar will lock target Sensor select forward, also vertical scan SS back, (EAF602 Red)
Six Flankers all by your lonesome? You certainly didn't make things easy for yourself. Still, you made an excellent showing. They won't be forgetting the spunky Brit in a Hornet anytime soon I'm sure. Thanks for sharing and I enjoyed the commentary.
You should be aware that spunk is something in Britain that it may not be where you're from.
@@TheFleetflyer I just looked it up and had a good laugh. That was definitely not the intention!
kicking but there tim love it ..
What a privilege to watch. Epic.
Tim you ever watched any of C.W Lemoine (aka mover)'s content? Ex f-16/f-18 pilot doing dcs stuff while giving life advice
Yes, he's a poorer version of me , lol (I'm sure he's a good guy!)
@@FastJetPerformance totally wasn't trying to push the idea of a possible co stream/video lol and good guy aside I agree with your statement ;)
@@dave1994jones fighter pilot banter, I've seen some of his stuff but I just think he doesn't engage with his audience but he does have a large following.
You would be SO LETHAL if you only had your switchology down!!! Going up against 6 bandits, and not knowing how to enter ACM mode is well...just nuts! That wan funny when you tried to lock up a missile steering cue! I loved hearing you talk through your flight man, epic. I never say a word. Get to those tutorials mate, and let's see another go!
Good effort Davies 💪
Engagingly addictive to watch👍🏻
Nice work man
Awesome flying
That was fun
I've seen people with hundred of thousands followers in this game only being strafe jerkers. Then i see you outmaunover the enemies
Intensely fun
That was awesome.
Any chance you are going to do TacView analysis about your fights?
Those AIM 9X are amazing tim
I luuuuurve them ❤️❤️❤️💯
Gordon Ramsey fighter pilot tutorial.
Well played Sir. Missiles or not that was still an unfair scrap and you played them all the way. Really enjoyed watching it....twice so far 😉
I'm currently flying the Spitfire over Normandy on an open server which has some good missions on it, and I'm loving it! It's keeping me away from the F-16 as well. Might catch you one day in the virtual skies. If you ever decide to give 1 to 1 training, for a price of course, I'd snap your hand off (or just tear it off, as was the preferred technique of the Plummer)! Maybe one day, but by then you'll have over 2 million followers with "Can't Fight what you Can't See" t-shirts on or "Fast Jet Performance" baseball caps 🙂
I'll look out for you (keep those eyes on a swivel 😳) 👍
This is the COOLEST video on YT by FAAAAARRRR!!
By a RAF
I'd love to see you do this in the Reverb G2. Really interesting video thankyou.
Tankin' names Fam.
Awesome video. I like the fact that you talk through your thought process during the fight which helps explain how to manage energy and angles. I've been hesitant to get back into DCS due to the large $ investment needed for a great graphics setup like yours but this may have sealed the deal for me. It would be great to see a series of fighter tactics training for DCS similar to this for anyone wanting to "do it right" in the DCS world. Keep up the great vids! Texas native..out.
Excellent. And you don't even know the jet. But training/experience did the job.
Might I suggest trying a Mig-29S? You're were asking where he's getting energy from .... so try one, they're amazing! Add in the R-73 and a limiter override on your throttle and they can do incredible things while the fuel lasts.
Loving your stuff dude.
How does DCS in VR compare to the simulation training you receive in the RAF?
In some ways it's actually better as the VR is very immersive - there is no purposeful VR use currently within the RAF.
@@FastJetPerformance
Appreciate the response. Keep the videos coming 🙂
You never never leave your wingman 🤣
Where did who go?
r u using VR? How do u set this type of recording? the mine fits only half of screen. thanks for the help.
can we create some kind of technoligy that lets people record what they see in vr but remove all of the jittering cuz it gives me a headache. i mean we must be able to do something against the shaking right
those fuel leaks are always annoying... I swear every time the entire tank evaporates... :D
What difficulty settings do you have the AI on? great content as ever
Veteran, Skippy
@@FastJetPerformance brilliant.. cheers for the quick reply.. I actually set it up exactly the same as you whilst watching your video..first attempt took down 2, second attempt took down 4. It will certainly help my dogfighting skills :-)
Try that with ten enemies Online, with missiles and try to win 10-0 without being damaged or killed, 😊
Maybe check out Growling Sidewinder and throw him a challenge...
Not bad.
GODS ANGELS HAVE SWORDS,OUR ANGELS HAVE FIGHTER JETS
Great video this one liked it very much i do have 1 question what software are you using to record the Rift experience couldn't see anything in your description above all the usual stuff but no mention of what you are using to record what you show us sorry if i have missed it somewhere else.
No it's fine, so I use the rift whilst recording my own audio separately then I save the watch file, replay it and record that with Nvidia Shadowplay. I tried OBS but I don't like it too much - hope that helps.
@@FastJetPerformance Helps very much thank you.
What software are you doing your videos with?
You should try giving your opponents missiles next time :-) Never tried to go up against 6, but 1 vs 4 in a Mirage 2000 vs Su-27 works fine (Su-27 armed with R-73 and R-27ER, skill level Ace). But 1 vs 6 when they are armed with missiles would probably be really difficult.
I will, just wanted to get some practise first, lol
#crazyrussianpilot :- > Top СУПЕР👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 👍👍👍👍👍
Press EW OSB on right MFD, then press HUD OSB, that will put threats inside your HUD.
Great video Tim, never thought I'd see you on DCS. Are you still at valley ?
Negative, Anthony - I left 2 years ago and now work in industry, trying to change aerospace in the UK - not easy to be fair!
keep up the good work buddy 👍
Davies, question: What do you think of these military simulations in regards to their representation of reality? I'm a games developer, but also have an interest in the air force and army (including army service). I'm interested in whether you think these are valuable training assets? It's always been my opinion that if the military could get over it's unhealthy relationship with the word 'game' it would have a lot of benefit from exploiting this kind of tech.
Very valuable but the military would rather spend millions on sims that have outdated tech by the time they arrive.
@@FastJetPerformance that is regretful indeed. I can't help but think that the RAF would benefit by issuing every pilot a PC with DCS, and their particular aircraft model, and encouraging them to free-play each other in their free time.
@@Guy_6397 except students don't really have the time in the evenings, their days are pretty full and they wouldn't know how to fly BFM until about 3 years in flying training. RAF flying training is very regimented and supplementary or previous training is not allowed or ignored and I expect DCS unmonitored training would probably fall under this.
@@FastJetPerformance that's interesting, I wasnt aware of how compressed their time scales were and now see how that wouldn't work.
@@Guy_6397 It would work on the Squadrons with specific time allocated to it but the RAF wouldn't go for it I don't think - I'll ask their view of it.
Nice video!! Can you share your vr settings?
Sure, I'll do a video for you 👍
@@FastJetPerformance thaaaanks!!
It would be good if you have videos that explain tactics as a real pilot
I do. Check the channel 👍
@@FastJetPerformance awesome content sir
Is this the Ghost of Kiev?
Maybe have a look at Falcon 4.0 BMS? -It has a very accurate f16 flight model and systems modelling. There's also a budding, savvy, online community that you can fly with.
Love BMS!
@@FastJetPerformance Whats your callsign on BMS?Do you ever fly missions via Falcon Online or Falcon lounge?
@@salsadevil negative, right now I'm not on BMS but I did tonnes of it back in the day when it had just changed to Free Falcon - I'll look to get into if not just for the clouds and instrument approaches!
Which VR dou you use
Oculus rift mate
Hi Tim, I fly with RafAirUK and we're looking forward to flying with you, this is a link to a full playlist on the DCS F/A-18C Lot 20 Hornet (th-cam.com/play/PL3kOAM2N1YJc5x-z99XdX-XxWg4I0Of-a.html ) , this includes everything however pick and choose the videos you see fit, there are more than enough pilots in RafAir OCU to help you learn the Hornet as well. Have a great day!
just forgot to use mirrors lol
Use "Sensor select forward" to put the radar in ACM and select bore sight mode. The radar will then slave to either the bore sight, or the cross in the HMD. (assuming it's within the radar gimble). Also, you can rate the Mig-29 & SU-27 in a one circle at 365 knots. SA to the left MFD, Attk Radar on the right, RWR is labelled "EW" - put that on the lower MFCD and make sure you select "HUD" to mirror it on the HUD
Thanks ❤️👍💯
Did you chaff flare at all? Didn't look like the bandits had many opportunities for any engagement to be fair. You were a slippery customer.
They only had gun so chaff/flare unnecessary (and I haven't read how to set that up yet too, lol)
@@FastJetPerformance any hornet instruction needed... you can be my wingman anytime😂
What VR headset do you use ?
Rift but would advise getting a better one, maybe use a Rift S, what you are seeing is my recording of the replay at a high resolution with audio I recorded when using VR.
Happy days Tim, put on the brakes he will fly right by.....You’re gonna do what?
No brakes - you loose too much energy and become a sitting duck. Keep the energy and trade space in another dimension, try a barrel roll. Brakes only for emergency prevention of overshoot but the barrel roll is still better.
@@staubsauger2305 Ha, I think you missed my point...... English humour. (It’s a quote from Top Gun 1 as were my other comments. Squadron Leader Tim Davies needs no tips from me)
Man, those "guys" are bots. You didn't defeat them, actually. They allowed you to win.
Hey! I'm glad to have found your channel. I enjoy your videos. In fact, you are one of the channels that inspired me to do my own channel... It can be found by searching for: mytai01. I'm a total noob to this, but I hope to learn and improve... I made my own 1v6 video (both internal and external view versions). You might get a kick out of them. I plan on posting several 1v1 BFM videos fighting several different aircraft at the Ace level...
Top pilot 4 Neptune 2
So how much are you loving dcs?
Yeah, I'm into the more complex aircraft that I have flight manuals for, it's a shame that the F-16 is currently lacking but I think it will get there. I need to work more on Harrier but, as always. it's a time issue.
F/A-18C is a slow speed fighter...
Great fight, but will a '9X to the face' ever work? 🙂
It seems not unfortunately, although it got a lock but probably from the RADAR, will investigate.
@@FastJetPerformance Pretty sure it was a radar lock as the 9X is IR only, but that's the benefit of watching rather than fighting. Can't wait for my Reverb G2 pre-order to arrive!
@@ColinDyckes I think you are right - so jealous of your G2!
@@FastJetPerformance Certainly looking forward to it as my first real delve into VR other than with the Samsung Gear VR.
Just hope my 2080Ti can run 4320x2160 at a decent detail level and frame rate as I haven't been able to get a 3090.
@@ColinDyckes a 2080ti will be an excellent experience
Is this game on PC
Yes, you can either download it from DCS website or use Steam.
Please post your track files...😃
You're flying with infinite weapons...🤨 Do it again with limited weapons...🤨 Disregard! I see you did limited weapons...😉
Get an Ocu S
Have you been tasked with flying drones to hospitals FJP? if so how cool is flying a drone!
Lol, I have a Mavic somewhere!
@@FastJetPerformance hahaha just the same I can imagine
Why??? You prove missiles are better than guns??? Sorry I must be missing something!!🤔?
That makes it a very catchy video to watch. Let's be honest, we're all here to be entertained -- and this is extremely entertaining.
