Good evening everyone,

After a long hiatus due to personal reasons I'm starting to slowly get back into the flight sim and video editing hobby.

This is my first movie in almost a year (and it has been a long and painful one). I hope you all enjoy!

All right, now wait one doggone minute there, Bobbalooey (Qickdraw McGraw reference.). Did I see the Eagle dropping rockeyes? Was that an edit or is there a mod out there for this?

Well at least you did not do Snagglepus, lol thumbsup

No, those were MK-82s with retarded chutes for low level release.

I set the mission up so my flight (2x F-15Cs from the 44th out of Kadena) escorted a flight of 4xStrike Eagles (the Chiefs from Seymour Johnson) out to the range.

F-5Ns taking off from NAS Fallon (on loan from Key West and Yuma) were the aggressors who were tasked with trying to intercept the package.

The Tigers were using strict GCI controlling and the F-15 flight (both Cs and Es) were allowed to use their radars with no AWACs support. Early on you can hear the radars pinging off on the TEWs in my cockpit (those were the F-5s turning their search radars on a bit too early, which allowed me get in low and fast and in turn jump them ;-) ).

I think there were some old mods for Lock On and later Flaming Cliffs 2, that allowed the F-15C to carry unguided bombs (as in real life) but not sure if there are any for DCS world.

Ah, of course. I forgot about A.I. Strike Eagles. Well, I guess, "Exit stage right, even!"
