Wow... great mission! I agree with the comments below; great flying, fantastic editing post-op, etc. This one took my 'GR-first-place-mission' spot from the '633 squadron (1964) Canyon Run'.

Looks like someone watched the time-lapse of Desert Storm posted by The Operations Room yesterday.

I’m a former Aegis Operations Specialist, who served as TIC/FTC in 7th fleet between 86-91 through the Gulf War as Zulu Foxtrot on datalink DSA and AAWC&R. I reported the SCUD detections by the Mobile Bay SPY-1 in Feb. 91 reported by datalink and voice to ZW and too Patriot batteries in the link who correlated and engaged them, confirming the Aegis BMD capability we have today. Mobile Bay and her crew were recognized by the Missile Defense Agency with their Pathfinder award in Jan. 2022.

As I’ve taken the dive into DCS with thrust master hotas warthog, rudders, and TrackIR running on an old ASUS Core I7 with NVIDIA GTX 960M. It has 3 usb and DVD I/o and seems to work well though not on my Panasonic 3-D hdtv (accept watching your videos oddly). I plan to get a an ultrawide curved monitor soon while I continue to configure my hotas and rig.

I started old school by getting the F-14B as I’m very interested in learning the air role of my surface job as a RIO. I was a qualified AIC but never got to use it other than to get the qual I was so married to AAW and datalink track coordination and management. I’d welcome any support here. The videos I’m watching don’t convey the command and reporting C2/3 environment I’m used to but otherwise I have 10 active duty years of seat time experience shipboard.

I’ve particularly enjoyed your videos with Naval engagements, planning and operations too as I was heavily involved with It. Would love to see Aegis ship CIC’s in operation even on a limited scale like AAW, datalink and shipboard AIC. I built Aegis training simulations for these roles for the Navy many years for ships specs, so know of an existing front end from the console level operations. I imagine something similar could be added to DCS with similarly talented coders and SME’s…

I’m hooked. So would appreciate any bones 🦴 to get me flying- even a ride or setup advice for my gear… look forward to getting to know some of you in similar situations.

Thanks guys!

Thanks CAP, my 2 1/2 year old son and I really enjoyed watching! He learned to say Grim Reaper

[oldmanfunky]

The guy or gal getting AA kills in the A-10C needs a medal!

[enjoi]

That beginning with all the low light carrier ops looked so damn good! I swear I get more enjoyment out of your videos than any of the movies I've paid for to watch in theatre!

[Wulable]

Best mission video I've watched on your channel so far! Editing and player performance were top notch on this one.

[CheekClapper]

you guys should redo this mission now that the Apache is out

[darklyt]

Wow, whoever made this mission (and edited the video cap!) and everyone that participated, excellent work! This was awesome to watch. Would love to see more missions similar to this, maybe even a continuation of this mission? Like pushing farther into “Kuwait”?

Again, loved this video! Awesome work all!

[Mrjakem]

I got feels watching the tomcats take off in the beginning 😂

[thehooklocker]

Just wanted to confirm “there were no blue-on-blue” air engagements throughout the war according to the CNO’’s after action report of war. It also mentioned the extreme track loads observed over the gulf, where the ingress and egress lanes existed. Constant streams of aircraft and tomahawks saw the identification of over 16, 000 aircraft by Bunker Hill and Mobile Bay alternating duties as FAAWC and FTC.

I’m proud to have played a role in that success.

50:50 I'm so pleasantly thrilled that I'm not the only one that makes noises when you can't hear it. Sometimes when firing Sparrows I mimic the top gun sound when they release.

[WilfChadwick]

One of if not the best mission vid you've made. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks.
1:02:08 Fk me! Cheese grater.

[Penfold]

Due to the absolutely obscene amount of air power employed by the allies during the initial part of Desert Storm, the ground war lasted barely much longer than this video. Also, video suggestion for Cap - Operation Desert Shield re-enactment...

[smac]

Wow, very well put together. Sick graphics. Keep up the good work

[recklesstv]

These have to be the best virtual combat videos's I have ever seen. I hope to attempt DCS very soon.

[gr-skil]

Excellent mission, great fun in the Huey. Special thanks to Ello in his A10 for taking out that Mig and saving our asses!

[mafiaman]

Seems like the other side are in a deep sleep no fight back lol

[VideoUser]

Wow - fantastic video, captivating stuff. Superbly edited too.
