DCS World Hornet Cinematic | 'Fleet Defense' + TACVIEW review

A pair of F/A-18C Hornets defend the fleet from a group of escorted strike fighters over the Black Sea. Good ol air-to-air action, light on realism. A feel-good cinematic for F/A-18 fans :)

Trying a different video format this time - a full cinematic render of the mission with no narration (but some minor voice-acting!), and then a TACVIEW review at the end.

--
Mission flown is basically the "Alert 5" mission from the F/A-18C Task Force Challenger campaign, but modified with more modern armaments (AMRAAMs and r27s) for the main combatants, as well as cosmetic changes for better cinematic effect.

Good video mate. Especially the Tacview breakdown afterwards.

Good vid but the music choice was so bad.

Yaa, but a Mig 29 would kick your F18 ass in real life. Don't be fooled by a game.
